Entering Celestial Avatar underwater[edit]

I need to test more, but I've noticed several times that entering Celestial Avatar underwater (specifically in the Aquatic Ruins Fractal) will not proc Quick Draw for the CA skills. I don't believe it procced when I left CA either. BlauRascon (talk) 17:52, 24 July 2016 (UTC)

Issues with entering/exiting CA[edit]

I noticed several times now, while having both the sigil of concentration, and the quick draw trait equipped, that sometimes when I exit CA after waiting 9 seconds, I get the sigil effect, but do not get the quick draw effect, despite both having a 9 second cooldown? Does the trait only go on cooldown after using the weapon skill? Or is it a bug in CA? Serena sedai (talk) 03:01, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

It definitely goes on cooldown as soon as it applies the buff, which is very easy to test (and the fact that dual wield longbow for Barrage works without issue demonstrates it in and of itself) --Gimmethegepgun (talk) 06:53, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
I've had multiple times where it does not proc when exiting celestial avatar, even though I *do* proc the sigil of concentration which has the same 9 second cooldown. I also tested it in game and if I weapon swap, don't use a skill, and weapon swap again as soon as it's off cooldown, I don't get quick draw... I believe if you *start* activating a skill the moment after weapon swap, the quick draw goes on cooldown the instant you *start* casting the skill (not the instant you finish), which means that you only have to delay a tiny fraction of a second before swapping in order to not get the behavior. Essentially, most of the time you don't see this in practice. Try delaying skill activation though, and then weapon swap immediately, and you should see that you don't get quick draw buff on the next weapon swap.

Based on testing in the raid golem, you're correct it does appear that I am wrong. I still know i've seen buggy behavior with celestial avatar but i guess it's a different issue or buggy behavior Serena sedai (talk) 21:22, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
