soulbeast mount "bug"

[melandru.3876]

when a merged soulbeasts uses a mount attack (both pve or wvw) they will perform the attack, they will re-merge (since dismounting counts as leaving and instantly re-merging)

 

this works as intended

 

however what happens is, during the time the soulbeasts dismounts (re-merges, as they were allready merged to begin with) the pet has a 0.5 second window frame to perform a skill without having a cooldown, when it de-merges again

 

example i fought today a soulbeast, he was using greatsword axe/horn

 

he gets the jump on me, ni get hit by warclaw attack no big deal. the animation happens, during that animation i got hit by charge (12 sec cd) charge did not complete fully as it was within the auto re-merge, still took the damage and the daze (as i didn't expect that ton happen at all) he instantly de-merges, i get hit by charge again!!!!! swaps to smokescale and does his stuff

 

i won the fight in the end

 

 

but to me this sounds like unintended gameplay

 

the instant merg( despite allready being merged) can be exploited in such a way

and it doesn't affect cooldown apparantly

 

 

 

can someone verify this?
