Guild Wars 2

Hi there.

I’m kinda confused about this new trait. This trait says :
“Gain up to 1000 Toughness, based on your level, when you break out of a stun.”

So that means that every time that i pop up a skill that break a stun this trait will pop up right? If so, I can use endure pain, dolyak signet and balance stance for break a stun.
In conclusion, only balance stance atm pop up this new trait, so i ask if there is a bug or i get the description in a wrong way.

Thx and cheers.

I just unlocked this skill and haven’t had a chance to test it, maybe I’ll try tonight if I have some time.

But sadly even if the trait did go off with Endure Pain (which it should), you’ll never gain any benefit from it. Endure Pain lasts 4-5 sec, while the trait only lasts 4 sec, so you’ll never get the extra toughness to matter since your invincible anyways.

endure pain u would take no damage after a stun break which makes it better than the trait. If you are using endure pain to break a stun the trait is worthless. It currently only makes sense to pair the trait with shake it off. Generally we use stability to make us immune to stuns not as stun breaks. The trait seems impractical I can’t think of any situation where it would be good.

Well it could be useful in WvW and PvP situations where stuns and stun breakers play a pretty big role, but I doubt it’s worth taking over CI+MH… it seems a little lackluster to me :-\ perhaps if they are removed the Icd it would be worth considering

I’ve been most interested in using this trait with Frenzy, honestly.

Yap. You all have reason in what u said, but the question here is: “Rousing Resilience should pop up every time you use any skill that break stun?”. I just talked about endure pain because it breaks stun, so it should pop up this trait.

Thx and cheers

Rousing Resilience is basically an Endure Pain. +1000 toughness mitigates a lot of damage. It feels like you’re invincible while it’s up.

Rousing Resilience activates when you break out of not just stuns, but also knock backs, knock downs, fears, and pulls.

Rousing Resilience is great for players that do not want to carry around Endure Pain utility. It frees up utility skills, and in some ways it is superior to Endure Pain because the +1000 toughness scales with stat conversion traits and runes (10% of toughness is converted to power, etc).

Rousing Resilience works great with the Shake it Off shout, because that shout is a 20 second cooldown when traited = the shortest cooldown stun break in the entire game. Shake it Off basically makes Rousing Resilience into a 4 second Endure Pain every 20 seconds.

Does this thing have an internal cooldown?

no, but it only triggers when you break out of a stun, not when you use a stun breaker.

it’s pretty useless tbh, since warriors already have the highest stability uptime anyways.

It doesn’t quite fill the void left by Turtle’s Defense.

Well thats not true(probably its a bug, dunno). When u use balance stance it activate, like if u are in a safe spot and use it, this trait will pop up, at least it happened when i tried.
