Guild Wars 2

Whirling Wrath is currently bugged. It will sometimes do the animation, but will do no damage and put it on 3 sec cooldown.

It sounds like you interrupted the skill (by dodging) before it had a chance to execute. I notice if I do that it puts a 3 second cool down on any skill you interrupt.

And I’m not the only one who noticed this bug .
The skill does the full animation, but no damage. And I’m not being interupted, and I’m not canceling it myself.
If the skill was interupted after the animation it would go on full cooldown.

It appears to trigger when you’re switching your target and using the skill at the same time.
Like spamming Tab to switch to the next target and also pressing the skill button multiple times.
If you’re not doing anything else after that it will put you in an infinite whirling that does no damage.
I can trigger the bug everytime on the golems in the heart of the mist

If you cast it, then change target, it cancels the cast but the animation continues.

when you see it happen, you’ll notice your WW went on a 3 second CD instead of the full duration.

It came with the new change target casting cancel update during the class balance patch.
