Related traits[edit]
Domination
- Vicious Expression — You and your illusions deal increased damage to foes without boons. Disabling a foe removes boons from them. Disables include stun, daze, knockback, pull, knockdown, sink, float, launch, taunt, and fear.
Chronomancer
- Delayed Reactions — Disabling a foe slows them. Disables include stun, daze, knockback, pull, knockdown, sink, float, launch, taunt, and fear. This trait can only affect the same enemy with once per interval.
- All's Well That Ends Well — Wells heal allies when they end.
Notes[edit]
- Despite the tooltip, the knockdown lasts 3s and therefore causes 300 Defiance bar damage. This is probably due to PvE balance for a CC-Elite to be strong in breaking defiance bars. It has no impact against other players in PvP or WvW, since the float interrupts the knockdown anyway.
- The 1s float causes 100 Defiance bar damage, the pull causes 150 Defiance bar damage; the whole skill causes a total of 550 Defiance bar damage.
