Guild Wars 2

I don’t know if this is a bug or not, but I posted a question about it in Suggestions and got no answers, so maybe…

Anyway, I used Potion of Ascalonian Mages in WvW and got stuck in ghost form. I could not operate siege in ghost form, nor swap my elite skill, nor even get out of ghost form by clicking (left, right, double, nada) on the ghost form boon.

I hear you can use another transformation skill to get rid of the current one, but I didn’t have any transformation skills equipped and couldn’t swap to one while in ghost form.

Lost a tower b/c I was supposed to be trebbing it from our keep, but couldn’t operate the treb in ghost form or even remove ghost form.

Am I just missing the method by which you remove a transformation like this? Is it working as intended? Bug?

The fact that this particular potion doesn’t behave like any of the other potions is probably a bug. All the other potions will change your skill bar and one of the skills will let you get out of the transform. The only way to get out of this one is to log out or use a different potion that behaves normally.

Ah, thanks. I actually use it precisely b/c it doesn’t change my skillbar. It’s a nice way to change my big lumbering Norn into a more agile-feeling human. Fine for sPvP or WvW roaming, ZvZ, or GvG, but apparently not siege operation.

If the only fix would be to make it work like other potions, I’d rather it not be fixed then. I’ll just use a second potion to remove it instead.
