bq pd.2148 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 if we are lucky we will at someday in the future retain the portal when we go into water, just like a mesmer does (even when its not on his watercombat bar).but till then: anyone can tell me how to reliably enter water without sinking below the surface so that i dont lose my portal?

Safandula.8723 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Before making shadow portal viable underwater, let's first wait for all bug fixes on land. It will take a while I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bq pd.2148 Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 not asking for it to be usable underwater.but right now when you place it on land and need to cross water, then the moment you sink below surface your exit portal will be gone and the skill on max cooldown. thats why i am asking how to enter water without sinking below the surface so that i can make a portal across water reliably. (mostly for WvW ofc as i will have skimmer/skyscale etc in most PvE envoirements) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonSeed.3528 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 I guess you can skip over the water if you know how to without sinking, I used to do this to keep the stacks on stacking sigil when I was lazy to put one on my water weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bq pd.2148 Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 often it does work but not 100% reliable with any way that i know so far, thats why i am asking if you have any ways to enter the water without sinking, that does work reliable.

Jugglemonkey.8741 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Prolly would be a case of don't go through water ATM. Are preparations useable underwater? If so, tried equipping it in the same slot so the skill doesn't get removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
