Guild Wars 2

Arborstone, also a French server, does the exact same thing. You won’t see them very often since they’re in the mid-low tier but against RoS and smaller DE servers like Miller’s Sound the same thing happens. French people just cap everything at night.

Greatsword Skill #5
Sword skill #2
Spear skill #5
Utility skill ‘Bulls strike’

When using these skills to put distance between you and an enemy, the way targeting works with them is extremely inconsistent.

~50% of the time when I use these skills without a target it works as I want it to, the ability will activate and I will charge in the direction I am running.

For the other ~50% of the time, the game will select a seemingly random nearby target and charge at it instead.

It becomes extremely aggravating when I am using it to run away and the game decides to target an enemy behind me, does a complete 180 and charges back at a zerg of death.

That’s the auto-select target function on skill use thing kicking in. You can turn that off in the options menu. Basically the default way GW2 works is that, if you don’t have a target selected and you use a skill, it will try to find one within the range of that skill and use it on said target. This is useful in large and confusing fights so you don’t have to manually find a target — the game does it for you.

Scepter/dagger and staff. Warhorn offers nothing to condition builds. Epidemic is a must. Corrosive Poison Cloud is also a good WvW choice. If you’re feeling frisky, try Plague Signet.

Animi.4617:

Why am I slow down in combat? It’s really irritating when I’m trying to run away from 30 players in WvW. Why arenanet put this in the game and what kind of thing they wanted to prevent?

It’s to prevent you from being able to run away from 30 players in WvW. In a situation like that, ArenaNet wants you to die.
