[power block]

new description: If target foe is casting a spell or chant, that skill is interrupted. The foe is interrupted regardless of any effects that prevent interrupts. The interrupted skill and all skills of the same attribute are disabled for 3...13...15 seconds for that foe.

does this mean if you interrupt, say, a signet the signets attribute and other skills of that signets attribute will be disabled, or does it just bypass any form of anti-interrupt and just disable spells and chants?

You can't interrupt a signet, since the description reads "If target foe is casting a spell or chant, that skill is interrupted."

Now if you interrupt, say, [[Orison of Healing], it would disable [[Signet of Rejuvenation]. It also does bypass any form of anti-interrupt such as [[Mantra of Resolve] or [[Song of Concentration].

He was quoting the new description because the Guru skill icon shows the old one. And then he was asking a question about it.

[power block] has been like that forever. Anet updated the wording of the spell a few months ago (can't remember which) so that it was easier to understand. It had always interupted regardless of any anti interupt, well not so much int. but disabled the skill(s) if an interupt would have been successful. You can't interupt signets with it since it only interupts spells/ chants. Zelgadissan pretty much sums it up

- Interrupting an unlinked or title skill will not disable any additional skills.
bug: Contrary to the description, the interrupt does ''not'' bypass effects that prevent interrupts. However, since the skill disablement occurs regardless of the interrupt, the skill will usually still fail at the end of its casting time.

This can be seen for instance if you get interupted by p-block casting like meteor shower. Itll recharge faster then the 60 seconds because its not interupted. Well I would assume thats the way it works, i could be wrong.
