Guild Wars 2

Since release, whenever you stand up again after downed, you are invulnerable for about half a second. Ofcourse this is either a bug, or something not fully thought through.. No idea why this has never been looked at before, though.

I’d like to know why people have to be invulnerable at all, but if ArenaNet really wants it to be there, change it to Evade or something… I mean, really I don’t have to point out that it is 100% wierd that some guy that just escaped death and stands up is not only invulnerable, but also destroys ALL projectiles ( Including my Phoenix, that never returns to give me Vigor and removes a condition… for what reason again? ) that were coming not only at him, but also at the reviver(s). Resulting in me losing alot of my burst, and the one that was about to die ( lying on the ground grasping for air, so weak he/she can’t even stand up anymore ) now not only running around, but fully regenerated again.

Please discuss!

Firstly, this should probably be in the suggestions sub forum.

Secondly, I agree with some things, I like the half second of invuln, but likely should be changed to evade so that it doesn’t destroy any projectiles. This still gives the person a second to gather their surroundings. I’ve never experienced this effect yet, but I’m assuming what the OP said is true.
