Guild Wars 2

@GraynX: I think the symbol pulses 1/second for its duration. It is possible to run completely through the symbol in 1sec if your timing is “poor” (and even easier if you already have swiftness applied). Just requires careful use, I’m afraid.

Question:
How can other players bypass barriers advertised as “cannot cross”?

Example: in WvW, I’ve laid down a ring of warding (hammer #5) only to see an enemy dodge out of it. I can see 3 possibilities: 1) a clipping issue, where my client saw the enemy inside the ring when the server had them elsewhere; 2) the enemy had stability, and the dodge is muddying my perception of the problem; 3) dodge rolls actually allow crossing a barrier (which would be absurd from a balance sense).

Thanks – great thread!
