Guild Wars 2

Hey! I have noticed that elementalists Arc Lightning spell sometimes get stuck…
I can use it out of range but ofc it says “out of range” but then its stuck casting for a minute or so… of not its just lightning around me… its not anything bad, but realy enoying.

Sorry for bad english.

Don’t know if anyone else has had the same problem but the scepter channelled auto attack has occasionally been getting ‘stuck’ once the target is dead as the channel doesn’t seem to end.
Bad part about this is you run about with the lightning trail to your dead target until you cast it again, which fixes it.

I get the same thing. Reported in game, I’m sure it’ll get fixed eventually.

The Arc Lightning animations gets “stuck” more often than not. Not to mention I find the animation/sound effect itself to be immensely irritating. The fact that half the time you cast it your character gets stuck in it is just icing on the cake.

I hope you find time to fix this bug and maybe while your at it at least change the sound effect.

I noticed the same issue, with the first lighting skill. Not everytime but conspicuously often.

best regards

This has happened to me too, I found that doing something to “interrupt” it will fix it like searching a body or mining a resource.

+1

Turning off auto-attack also seems to fix it after the channel duration has expired.

I can confirm that disabling auto-attack for the skill does not make this bug go away. I have mine on skill 6 and still see channeling being stuck.

There’s an easy workaround though: just use the key-bindable “sheath weapons” when the bug hits.

Yeah, I get this all the time as well.

Didn’t think to bind sheath weapons, that’s a good idea, will do it next time I’m on.
