Does Illusion of Haste cancel ANY Cripple? - Guild Wars Forums

I've heard that Illusion of Haste, when recast, cancels the cripple condition it gives you when it ends. Is this true?
It it is, as I have heard, does this also hold true for a cripple given from another source?

( Sounds like there is a way for a Warrior to be "Cripple Proof". )

Yes, it removes the cripple condition, no matter the source.

Only if he's also interrupt and running-out-of-mana proof.

Not to mention the fact that Illusion of Haste only works on being "Crippled" not being Imagined Burdened or Ice Spiked or Ward Against Foed or any other snaring affect. Also, you'll be Crippled whenever it ends and it takes a bit of time to cast if you're trying to keep it up indefinitly so it's not without its drawbacks...

Yeah, I really think it should have no casting time just like warrior and ranger speed skills.
The way it is now, the nessesity of recasting it, and having top stop to re-cast it, totally cancels out the benefits you get from the speed increase (well not totally, but it's worse than sprint. Not to mention it uses up all your energy, and once you're out of energy you are crippled, which will let [i]anyone[i] catch up to you).

If a one-eyed razorback barbarian warrior was chasing you with an ax, you just had to hope you could outrun him.
