Guild Wars 2

While using my mesmer under the sword/pistol weaponset my sword attack #3 is supposed to send out a phantasm to leap at the foe and attack it and then allow me to press the sword attack #3 again in order to teleport to where my phantasm was. I use this to easily get close with my sword attacks so i can stun them with my pistol and use sword attack #2 to do more damage. The issue is around 60+% of the time I click the button my phantasm doesnt appear thus I’m not able to teleport to the opponent and my cd begins. This is very aggravating. I’ve hovered over the button multiple times to make sure I wasn’t missing something and doing it wrong and all that it requires is that I press the button while targeting (doesnt say while targeting but just to confirm in case someone tries to say that is the issue as I always use tab targeting). This is very aggravating as it renders my combo I’ve perfected for when it does work on my sword useless everytime I have distance on my opponent. This is mainly a problem in pvp as that is when I use the sword/pistol combination. Please fix this.

Thanks.
