Guild Wars 2

Warrior elite skill, Battle Standard.

If the Battle Standard cast is canceled or interrupted, it sometimes still goes on full cooldown instead of the 4-second interruption cooldown. Specifically, it seems that if it is canceled more than (roughly) halfway through the cast, then it goes on full cooldown.

I have this bug too. Sometimes I’ll get interrupted while casting the Battle Standard spell on my warrior. The AoE animation plays out and the full spell cooldown triggers as if the spell has been successfully used, but no banner shows up. It doesn’t revive fallen allies when this happens, so it is a very serious bug when it comes to using this in WvW when it is needed.

Bump please. After reading the information and running a few tests myself the situation is as such:

Canceling the banner before it is halfway casted will put it on the short interrupt cooldown.
Canceling after the halway cast point will complete the animation, game sounds, and light up the ground, but no banner will be summoned. The buffs do not occur and the skill is placed on the full cooldown.

I can confirm this!

Additional to that this banner doesn’t revive fallen allies with too low down state HP, different to what the description is saying… More inside here!
