Guild Wars 2

The thief sword skill (#2, follows Infi Strike) was patched and said to have a .25 second cast, but its cast is more like a second or so long. Please look into this.

All 0.25 second skills in gw2 are half a second in reality. The same goes for headshot (pistol offhand 4). It should be an instant skill but in reality it takes about 0.25 seconds for the shot to start flying. Just like Unload (p/p 3 skill) is said to be 1.75 seconds but it is 2,25-2,5 seconds in reality. Everything takes more time.

This is a core issue that has been around since the start of the game. I am sure they know this already but they are failing to patch it for some reason :\

Yeah, I know, but the change is 4x more than those .25 seconds. Also, it’s put in the skill queue, which wasn’t mentioned in the patch notes. :/

Disappointing, really.
