Guild Wars 2

This ability hasn’t been functioning as an instant any more since the last big patch.

It takes several seconds to fire.

Please look into this.

Not sure if this is a highly reliable source for the information, but aside from my experience in the past, this is all I have to go on; I’m at work ATM.

The Necromancer downed state #2 used to be available right away and instant (assuming I remember correctly)…then this recent large patch came out and now it takes seconds to cast.
The other thing that I am wondering about is, should #3 be available right away too? I mean, if you are just downed then you haven’t had a chance to use it until then…why is it on cool down as soon as you hit the downed state?
