Guild Wars 2

A few bugs noted with Basilisk Venom.

- Whenever triggering a venom in general, any outgoing attack will trigger and remove the Venom, regardless what is actually going on. As such, simply missing with venoms, or attacking out of combat will remove the Venom. Venoms should not be removed unless 1) the attacks hits, 2) the attack is blocked 3) the attack is evaded. Simply being out of range or having no target selected should not remove the buff.

- Stealing or using stolen ability (regardless of what ability actually does) removes Basilisk venom and does not turn target to stone. Stealing still works with other Venoms.

- If using an AoE ability, Basilisk venom will be removed and will not turn anyone to stone, even the target.

- Basilisk venom seems to fail quite a lot of using with anything aside from basic attack or Heartseeker.

Repro steps:
1) Equip Basilisk Venom
2) Attack stuff.
3) Watch them not be turned to stone.

Seriously, very hard nerf to my Condition Necromancer… Very difficult to generate life force in combat, overall feels much less effective and less fun to play.. I relied on quick swapping of Death Shroud and normal abilities…

Please revert

Caudecus’s Manor. All five of us tried to get in, not a single person could enter. We had someone leave and enter on their own, then tried to rejoin his party- still hitting ‘join party in explorable mode’ button was broken. Never got it working and eventually gave up.

Twilight Arbor. Four people were able to enter the dungeon. One person came to the area a little later than the rest, and was forced into a separate instance, despite having selected ‘join party in dungeon’ option. After leaving and re-entering several times, it finally works.

Bump please. Got my Ghastly Staff and it doesn’t glow : / It still looks cool and matches my armor nicely, but no ghostly aura : (

I sad.

I 100% agree, bump.

For some hearts, its very very difficult to actually achieve the thing because the proper enemies don’t spawn often enough.

In some enclosed spaces, it’s very dangerous to go in alone as a squishy (like a 100% offensive elementalist) because enemies will spawn behind you mere seconds after you’ve killed them.

Enemies spawn rate needs to be a function of:

Area (larger area to cover, enemies need to respawn a bit faster, small area, slower)
Player number (more people present, faster respawns)
Player proximity/in combat (if a player is too close to the area or is in combat, spawn should slow down. Obviously this effect should be exponentially reduced with larger numbers of players or events)
