Guild Wars 2

So now let’s say i have SR on utility slot 7 and i have 2 signets on say Assassin’s on 8 and Infiltrator’s on 9.
If i try to switch Assassin’s signet with say Agility signet (i.e a signet not currently equipped) while SR is on cooldown, the Agility signet goes on cooldown as well with same cooldown kitten, i don’t think this is normal, probably a bug.
This only happens when SR and only SR is on cooldown.

I tried to replicate this and i am not getting the “bug” you are talking about.
Maybe post a video link to this.

This is related to your underwater utilities. When you use an utility it also puts underwater utility in the same slot on cooldown. In your case you have Agility signet on underwater utility slot 7.

I don’t think he’s gone underwater though.

I’ve noticed this happen at times when I switch utilities and one other utility is on cooldown. It will sometimes put the utility I just swapped in on the same cooldown timer as the utility that is on cooldown. I don’t think it always happens (haven’t bothered to test), but I have a suspicion it’s linked to certain utilities and not others.

An example I’ve encountered is swapping the portal utility on my mesmer while a different utility (i.e. blink) is on cooldown.

As such, it’s not clear if it’s actually a bug or if they intentionally made it that way for some reason.

Utility bars on land and underwater are linked together. Let’s say you have Frenzy, Endure Pain and Balanced Stance on land bar and Signet of Might, Signet of Fury and Signet of Stamina on underwater bar.

Now if you use any skill on land that slot also goes cooldown underwater. If you use Frenzy on land bar then Signet of Might gets same cooldown on underwater bar. You can verify this by going underwater (but not needed!). Now both skills Frenzy and Signet of Might are on cooldown. You can verify this by equipping Signet of Might (which is what this bug is all about).

I have this same issue when swapping utilities in dungeons on my engineer, I will be swapping out a kit while my 3rd utility is on cool down, and the kit picks up the utility cool down, if I am understanding the problem correctly.

Go underwater, take that kit off of your bar. If you absolutely need it on your bar underwater, put it on then, and take it off again before you resurface.
