Well, they made elementalist staff useless in WvW without fixing the lack of synergy with other traits and ignored them completely. Organized guilds aren't using them at all anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if they did the same to all long range weapons on classes that are squishy.

Can't confirm in the game right now, but most likely your aegis is unaffected. Then the next thing the clone does is probably shoot you with a beam, thus removing your aegis anyway with a 1-damage ranged attack.

Did you know you can dodge roll twice in a row? It's super effective.

Did you know that your window to double dodge does not exist, (your getting hit with DJ as your first evade ends) try again.

Nope, they can be chained almost perfectly if you keep mashing the button.

Does happen to me quite often, though. Weird. Maybe I'm special.

Just out of curiosity, what rank / rating are these DE showing up that people are crying about it.

It works perfectly fine for me if I input correctly from my side. And my ping is about 100-150.

last person i heard complaining about DE was ranked #5 btw...

 

"It works perfectly fine for me if I input correctly from my side. And my ping is about 100-150."

 

impossible, You would have to dodge while in a dodge roll which you can not do. Now you could of said FS and that would of been believable (though still unlikely)

Then I do the impossible because two chained dodges get me out of every situation imaginable (except ring of warding) on a regular basis.

Also, in your example you seem to assume that the deadeye in question is not affected by network latency.

but DJ is a stealth attack and cannot be used if revealed.

 

I don't use rifle, but that -is- how it works right? It's a flipover skill and reveals you when you use it, but you must be in stealth to begin with.

 

If a thief three round bursts on you from stealth, he is revealed and cant set up for DJ immediately unless he burns his elite. and that takes a full second from Meld to DJ.

is the description wrong or something?

The reaction time of a college aged person typically around 0.25 seconds for a visual cue and 0.2 seconds for a audio cue. Adding 100ms of ping to that brings it up to 0.35 seconds for a visual cue and 0.3 seconds for a audio cue.

 

I 100% guarantee that you can not reactively dodge a 0.25 second cast.

I don't. I'm saying that if your first dodge roll is baited, then you can reliably chain it into another dodge roll to evade the expected follow-up.

Sounds like a lot of excuses and lots of opportunities to counterplay and interrupt...

Nope, just saying it how it’s, I’m not the one having trouble with easily avoidable highly telegraphed attacks, unlike some people.

Reading is hard isn't it.....

"Let's put it this way i have 11k life running a full glass core d/d thief spec.i have 0 problems killing deadeyes. But i can't honestly say Deadeye is a healthy spec for pvp? You can't either"

 

it's obvious at this point your using this to get carried, and you wonder why the player skill level is at an all time low. do you need a hint? shit like this.
