I don't want to jump the gun but im going to go ahead and say this is going to be massively broken. This will go for all invuln skills and amoung all of them which are just one button click 4 seconds invul like for example Eles Focus Earth or even passive traits, the distortion what needs 3 clones to even get 4 seconds will be the less broken one. If any of that will be broken, braindead condibuilds clearly needed some hits, this is an easy way, so ofc the way anet choose, to kick them all a bit.

ceces.9368 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Isn't this an indirect buff to Mirage? Their dodge, sword 2 and distort are all invuls, aren't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxwelgm.4315 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 As much as it sounds like a buff, I think it actually doesn't do so much and finally does what Anet now jokingly calls "purity of purpose". Most sources of invulnerability do not allow you to act while you're invulnerable and are just a red herring for the enemy to waste cooldowns (e.g Guardians and Engineers), and it made no sense that you would die to conditions in spite of triggering invulnerability at the best possible moment (when the adversary was about to waste their important cooldowns to kill you from cleave or pull stability to stomp you). Mesmer has to sacrifice their DPS from shattering on F2 if they want to Shatter distortion for long periods of invulnerability. I just fought a Holo and had no issues with him going mini and being invulnerable for a while, and still dealt with it the same way I would have done before.

It's just labeled as Mirage cloak, so I don't think it'll work, but sword 2/distort got a buff if it worksReading it in game, it's just distort that only gets this benefit. Thought it was both due to blurred giving the same icon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad it doesn't but I wouldn't be surprised if they did make it so endure pain prevented damage from condis too. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sword 2 is an evade and not a distortion anymore, means will also not get the condi immunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
