Guild Wars 2

Skill 5 (summon toy golem) of the Fancy Winter Scepter initiates costume brawl even though it’s not a brawl skill.

And to be honest, I’m getting quite fed up with waiting for this to be fixed. I’ve reported it several times over the past few months. It’s something I’ve paid real money for and the fix should be fairly straightforward.

If it was a free item I’d feel different. But in this case, I didn’t even buy part of the gems with ingame gold. I actually paid full money and got a defective item in return.

If it explodes and causes “damage” in costume brawl then it is a costume brawl skill.

Ayrilana.1396:

If it explodes and causes “damage” in costume brawl then it is a costume brawl skill.

It doesn’t.

Then I agree that it really shouldn’t. If I recall, the summon cauldron ability for the witch costume doesn’t.

Indeed. The skill summons a toy golem and is replaced with a ‘leave brawl’ button when you’re in costume brawl mode. It should be a vanity skill only, yet somehow it still initiates brawl. The added downside is that where the Pirate and Chef costumes et a cool ‘pet’, the toy golem is de-summoned instantly.

All of this wouldn’t be much of a problem to me, if it hadn’t been a paid item. But since it is, I feel it should be working flawlessly (or as well as possible anyway). I’ve been reporting this bug for months and it should be easy to fix since it’s merely a matter of changing a flag.
