Guild Wars 2

The new vault mechanic is not reliable at all compared to the older one even after taking out the quickess interaction from it. It gets stuck on the slightest obstacle in-front of the user when the previous vault had no problems jumping over it.

You can’t even weapon-swap cancel vault anymore either which is basically butchering another depth of player interaction with a game mechanic. I believe vault is the only leap finisher that cannot be weapon-swap cancelled in the game atm, even Scrapper’s Rocket Charge can be kit-swap cancelled. Believe it or not, a lot of staff thieves utilized the vault-cancelling to move through terrain in both PvE and PvP. Ex: travelling around w/o hitting mobs to avoid getting into combat. It was a nice mechanic that players had control over which allowed the weapon set to compete w/ short bow as well.

oh anet… please explain this..

Oh and another thing………… There’s a huge bug where you can still weapon swap if you do vault at a wall.

Please, ANET, please. Just revert this change. The other thief changes are bearable — this one was butchered.

It is blocked by the object. Ranger projectiles behave the same why should this skill be any different? Don’t revert it back!

If for some reason you do revert it back then:

• please make ranger projectiles go through solids object too.

Vault isn’t a projectile. It shouldn’t be treated like a projectile. It should be treated like a leap.

Please fix this. I played staff thief a lot (staff as both weapon sets) for months and never had any problems with vault. Weapon swapping during vaults was something I used a lot; so this bug is a big deal to me.
