Guild Wars 2

Im not sure whether its a bug or intended but i found that using heartseeker to chase/hit an enemy whilst he is running away always results in a miss. maybe by the time i leap to my targets location, he has already moved onwards, which results in a “miss” ?

i think the problem is that the heartseeker’s range icon is broken. it says you’re in range about 100 units before you actually are, and yeah it often misses great distance leaps against moving targets even if you land right next to them (and obviously in range).

yeah i found 100% of the time if my target is running away, even if im like point blank behind them, heartseeker will still miss… but for some strange reason this happens far more in WvW than sPVP heartseeker is one of the thiefs best burst skills, but seeing “miss miss miss miss” is very fustrating sometimes another problem with heartseeker is that if your target is standing still, it sometimes just leaps forward and forward, overshooting your target as if your target isnt there at all. There were a few more problems with Heartseeker like leaping to the wrong target (but that maybe due to lag) :P

I’ve been noticing heartseeker missing even at melee. When it happens my character tends to do something akin to a barrel roll. A few times I’ve actually hit critters near by instead of my intended target. It has to be something with it not taking targets properly.
