Guild Wars 2

When I activate Signet of Mercy it does not revive a nearby downed player. I have tried several times now with another player right next to me and it has no effect. This makes the signet useless.

Also, when using the trait Perfect Inscriptions which supposedly improves signet passive effects, non of my signet tool tips change to show any improved effect. I assume this is just a tool tip issue but it makes me wonder if the trait is working.

Signet of Mercy has an ambiguous tooltip. It only revives downed players, not dead/defeated players.

Perfect Inscriptions does work, AFAIK. Check your Healing stat when you have Signet of Mercy equipped and you turn the trait on and off. For signets that give a passive attribute bonus, the amount is increased by 20%. It would be nice if they had the tooltips change, as you said.

Yes. this is sad.
Signet of Mercy do not revive dead players but instead DO revive dead NPC’s .
If its intended like this then its a waste of skill slot. 240 second recharge time is way too long
