  • Fixed an issue that prevented this skill from summoning a phantasm when used on an evading enemy.

August 20, 2024

  • Phantasmal Lancer: This skill's phantasms no longer dash at the target and now launch their spears toward the target, inflicting damage in an area. This skill now grants swiftness to the player. Increased the damage from 0.4 to 0.6 in WvW and PvP.
