Guild Wars 2

The fifth Staff skill sometimes causes enemies to fear me so much they just keep on running and running away.
Although I’m obviously to be feared, I’m also lazy and hate the chase :P
I have the fear lasts longer and the fear does damage trait on and also have greater marks.
Full berserker set.
Only happened about 3 times in the last 5 days but when I told it in the farming party the other necro confirmed this happening to him/her too.

This just happened to me tonight – I was fighting near beach on raid of the capricorn when I got feared and it feared me all the way through the water to the ruins where the sharks finally killed me. Was wondering wtf happened so I guess this is a bug? I hope it’s a random bug and not an exploit because that is pretty messed up >.<

I’m fairly certain this a bug with a trait and it isn’t new. I believe it is the trait Reaper’s Protection which “When disabled nearby foes fear you.” causes problems. It may have something to do with reflect effects. It used to actually fear enemies for an extra duration, but it is fairly buggy.
