Depco.6310 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I have been playing GW2 for about 3 months. I am having a great time and have been able to get my wife into into playing with me for the last 2 months. Recently I have been experiencing instant death after leaving combat. Upon finishing a particularly difficult fight I very often die once out of combat for 5-7 seconds. I check my combat log and don't see any damage being taken or conditions that would explain the insta-death. Also I am not downed, I am defeated. Is there some unknown to me mechanic that is causing this? It is very frustrating since I either have to wait for someone to rez me or go to the closest waypoint to continue playing. Also for reference I am using a relatively modern computer with a 400mb wired internet connection so I don't experience any lag at all. I do get occasional fps drops when loading in a new are but otherwise my gtx1070 gets the job done. If anyone has any advice for this annoyance let me know. Thanks in advance.

Depco.6310 Posted May 1, 2022 Author Share Posted May 1, 2022 I am a warrior. I use dual axes. No Vengence. I have Strength, Tactics, and Discipline as my specializations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariurotl.3718 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Vengeance is one of your downed skills. It has a chance to fully revive you if you kill a mob, otherwise you get fully defeated. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Vengeance_(skill) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Depco.6310 Posted May 1, 2022 Author Share Posted May 1, 2022 (edited) I see what you mean. I use Vengence to get up when knocked down. I didnt realize that I could die after combat while using that. Maybe I should read the descriptions a bit closer. Thank you for the insight. I will be more mindful of when I use that skill.

Don't feel bad. This question comes up from time to time because how much time are you really spending carefully reading your downstate skills, right? FYI: If you want to make the rally from vengeance automatic, there is a trait for that in the discipline line called "Vengeful Return". If you kill anything during vengeance you no longer have a chance to drop dead afterward. You also gain a full endurance bar and 25% more health returned than usual. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
