Guild Wars 2

Currently a level 40 Mesmer dual wielding swords with Blade Training and Illusionist’s Celerity.

The Recharge time in the TOOLTIP of Illusionary Riposte (off-hand sword counter skill) shows 12 (down from 15 supposedly due to Blade Training), but when the skill is cast, the recharge timer starts at 15. The actual recharge of this spell is not being decreased. Heck, since it creates an illusion as well, maybe its cooldown should be 9s as well?

Secondly, the recharge time in the TOOLTIP of Phantasmal Swordsman says 12s, down from 15s (supposedly due to Blade Training and Illusionist’s Celerity not stacking, as on the wiki Blade Training), but when the skill is cast, the recharge timer starts at 9. The tooltip is not accurately reflecting the fact that both traits are reducing its recharge.

I’ve noticed these bugs too when I play my mesmer.

Also, the Phantasmal Haste skill description is very misleading. It says “phantasm recharges 20% faster”, but it’s actually the attack speed rate of the phantasms which gets decreased in reality, not the “phantasm’s skill CDs” .

Other notes on Mesmer Traits:
1) The Illusionar Persona needs to show stack values (like shown on the wiki Page below)

2) Illusionary Elasticity: Notes that need to be included (currently non-existing)
a) Affects Magic Bullet: 4th target suffers Confusion.
b) Does not affect clones using Winds of Chaos.

3) Not all skills that reduces the recharge rate of illusion-summoning skills work.

Most of the bug that I experienced in-game can be found in wiki’s Mesmer-skill trait page. I can confirm that most of the reported bugs/notes there are 99% true.

EDIT: I consider any skill that has a description which can mislead the user using the skill – a bug in the game.

Yeah, the game is new, but if you read the bug-posting thread, you should create 1 new thread for each bug you encounter. That way they can refer people and merge topics together related to each bug. Thanks for the confirm though.

This one is easily repeatable.
