Guild Wars 2

Before the update about 2 weeks ago, jump shot on the engi rifle 4 bar would occassionally fail for very obvious reasons (immobilize, knockback, what not).

Now jump shot will fail to move you around 25% percent of the time (when you are in combat), without you being immobilized, or knocked back. You will get the green target circle which indicates you have a legal target to go to – and you would just jump up and down vertically…

Also of concern is that you wouldn’t always get a clear indication of the skill failing due to buggy animation which wasn’t originally buggy – in the bugged animation you move from your current point to the point you are shooting at only after vertically jumping to the point you are originally standing only to be warped forward to the target area after your vertical fall. This issue causes me to que skills incorrectly in that I am expecting a failed jump shot so I que for a long range skill, when in fact it succeeded, and I was supposed to que for a short range skill (which does alot more damage).

I understand that sometimes the server thinks I target the ground beneath my feat when I actually target something off in the distance, but the combination of the fail 25% of the time and the buggy animation is totally throwing my game play off.

Any other rifle engies out there experiencing the same thing?
