Auto-retreat[edit]

How do you mean auto-retreat? :) (Did not play the demo.) - Infinite - talk 01:57, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

Fear, I presume? Also. yes, can you do anything while you auto-retreat? Like cast or attack things you walk by? Venom20 User Venom20-icon-0602-sm-black.png 01:59, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
no, not talking about fear. i'm talking about skills such as hornet's strike. if you use the skill, your character is forced to move backwards a ways. it's the same with a couple of other skills as well. what you see in the skill animation for hornet's strike is not evasion, it's the skill at work.

i did see fear used though, and it lasted for a grand total of maybe 5-7 sec. it's basically another version of knockdown. Varve 02:03, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
Ah. I thought it was a new form of dumbed-down tactics. Hornet Strike is just a skill to quickly get out of range to swap to Shortbow then. Nothing game breaking, but man you had me worried there. ;) - Infinite - talk 02:08, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
yeah, nothing seemed to be broken during my playthrough, not even fear/death shroud. the skill videos on the gw2 website make them look far more impressive than they actually are Varve 02:09, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
Very nice, very nice. Oh and before we forget; Welcome to GW2W. =D - Infinite - talk 02:20, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
Phew! Glad to hear that there was nothing broken in the demo (at least nothing too major). Also I'm jealous that you got to play the demo!! Welcome to GW2W!! Venom20 User Venom20-icon-0602-sm-black.png 02:23, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
