Riba.3271 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 When you daze an enemy, you remove any ongoing hard CC effects such as fears, knockdowns and stuns. This can be particularly problematic for WvW since you have no control over other players buttons and 1v1s are rare. CC overlapping particularly hurts classes that have daze on their key abilities like spellbreaker, harbinger, renegade, vindicator and thief Here is 5+ year old bug report about it: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Bug-Stun-boon-is-removed-upon-daze I just want to thank the dazers all over the world! Fears are nice too! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyreva.1078 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) This is not a bug. Every hard cc overrides existing cc. Working as intended. It is also not something that only happens with daze. Can't count how often rangers saved me with their knockback from their allies dmg or their own roots. One of the very few mechanics in that game that can still punish mindless skill spam.

Definitely made that daze bug out…. 😏 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrHome.1920 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Managing stuns and dazes in a way that your daze does not overwrite your precious 3 second stun is one of the few things in GW2 that requires a tiny bit of skill. I hope this never changes to another skill spam promoting mechanic that automatically prioritizes stronger hard cc (stun) over a weaker one (daze). 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justine.6351 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Nice try but I am going to keep using mantra of distraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotejjeken.1267 Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Meh, would be preferable if it did nothing before overwriting, but whatever. I mean as a ranger if I daze someone with my shortbow it'd be great for that noob longbow ranger that uses #4 all the time not to ruin it with a pointless knockback...but one can dream... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
