Beastmastery: Zephyr's Speed Bug
nvm, i need to lock and initially the target before quickness gets activated.
I thought that by merely swapping without a target, i will be granted quickness.
It has been talked millions of time since 10/7, What Anet do is just close (or delete) the post. I am sure they already know this, but the problem is whether they care.
Nope. You have to be in combat to grant quickness or any other buffs associated with swapping a weapon or pet.
And CRabbit, why would they care? It’s how the game is supposed to work. Beforehand, they changed it because people were switching out pets a large amount of times to grant themselves huge duration of this buff out of battle then going in battle. That wasn’t supposed to happen. Also, given that the quickness lasts 2 seconds, it’s better that it’s in battle since you actually can get the benefits from it.
