Hopefully with Confusing Images we can have enough time to destroy a whole army of Ele's and still have time for Tea.

And think of the energy loss just to interrupt yourself to do something else

And think about mixing with Migraine and/or Conundrum if they stack.

The ΒΌ cast will be much easier in PvE. Poor Hydras in Ring of Fire

I know the new skills haven't had any PvP usage, but has anyone tried them in PvE? I really liked Shrinking Armor. I used a Shrinking Armor + Shatter Delusions + Epidemic combo against groups of monsters. It really helped on the Defend the Eye quest alongside a Barrage Ranger. I didn't try any of the other skills, but Wandering Eye also looks pretty decent.

Aneurysm at play on some Ele boss

Me and Gwen used E-Surge, E-burn, Power Leak and guilt.
I had a blast during this dunjon power leaking and draining deep freezes like mad.

This points out a very interesting thing about armor in general ... its hard to tell what armor you actually have or fight against.

Testing showed that cracked armor was bugged this weekend or in other words didn't work at all. But you still enjoyed it's effectiveness (since you shattered your 3 pips degen).

Would be sweet to know at least what my own armor is ... especially since the cap to armor stacking was introduced (and is still only recognized by few).
And don't tell me I as a mesmer shouldn't worry I love my shields

Just a side note.

That's weird, I could have sworn it worked properly. My Ranger friend said her Barrage damage was higher than normal. Maybe the centaurs were using Frenzy?

Yeah that is exactly what i mean... I don't doubt that you both 'thought' it worked and by no means i doubt your skills playing and judging the game you play. Still it is unlikely that you experienced real game mechanic effects.

Here are some links about the bug:

Official Wiki talk: http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Talk:Cracked_Armor

Guru Bug Section: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10190036

The problem is that damage is calculated in a range and its really hard to tell what armor a enemy has beside testing it ... this might go a bit off topic but I would love to have a armor indication somehow.
(Like they implemented that for deepwound - grey bar / something in the line off actually seeing that you lower armor or not)

It is as well relevant to the skill because it only effects armor above 60.

But enough of that now,

Curious about seeing the effect of cracked armor going alive though.

I agree wholeheartedly. Maybe make a new PvE skill that lists a monster's AR, Damage, HP, Energy, etc. Wishful thinking, I know, but it would be a great addition.
