Guild Wars 2

I’m not sure if this is an intentional feature or not, but I can’t seem to summon that one golem minion (and the 1st robot skill as well) that I have as elite skills under water, where I can summon most (all?) other minions on the 7-9 keys normally…

Skills that cannot be used underwater have an explicit icon of a red cross through a drop of water. Flesh Golem is one of the skills that cannot be used underwater.

The skill has a waterdrop icon with a red X on it. So it means it is not designed to work underwater. So I cannot say this is a bug, it seems to be intentional.

That leaves us with only the plague cloud as an elite skill underwater… Which unsummons your minions… Which makes it makes it more useless than useful… I hope they either allow the flesh golem underwater, or allow minions to persist when transformed into a plague cloud.

Ah, that’s the meaning of the icon I could not place. Thanks. Would mean that I can use only 1 (rather lausy with 3min CD) elite skill under water

Worry not, Plague is a pretty OP skill in my opinion (:

I find plague pretty underwhelming from a solo play perspective. I can see though how it could be extremely strong in team play. 30 seconds of blinded foes? It’s really unfortunate that plague is the only underwater elite for the necro.
