Default Skills Randomly Recharging

So I made an Elonian ranger the other day, great fun, except the only problem is: my skills randomly start recharging every few minutes, especially near Kournan soldiers (Consulate Docks Mission, between Yohlon Haven and Sunspear Sanctuary) and near Skales (Issnur Isles, Mehtani Keys). Does anyone know what is causing this, because it's really starting to annoy me.

some skills can make some skills from your bar to recharge...

Signet of Humility = Target foe's Elite Skill is disabled for 1...13 seconds.

Power Block = If target foe is casting a Spell, that Spell is interrupted. The interrupted Spell and all Spells of the same attribute are disabled for 3...13 seconds for that foe.

Blackout = For 2...5 seconds, all of touched target foe's skills are disabled, and all of your skills are disabled for 5 seconds.

... and ...

Archer's Signet = All your non-attack skills are disabled for 15...9 seconds. For 30 seconds, your next 1...6 bow attacks cost no Energy.

Tiger's Fury = All your non-attack skills are disabled for 5 seconds. For 5...10 seconds, you attack 25% faster

Does your Ranger have a pet?

I think your skills are being recharged due to the death of your pet...

"When a pet dies, all of its owner's skills are disabled for between 10 and 3 seconds based on the owner's Beast Mastery level. If a pet dies soon after it is resurrected (approximately within 15 seconds), the owner's skills will not be disabled for this death. If you aren't actually a ranger, your skills aren't disabled when your pet dies. (This can happen in early PvE play before you have chosen your secondary profession.)" - from GW Wiki

Ah, I think Sau is right: my pet is dying quite often lately. Thank you very much.

I would also like to adress this topic, for I have also had this problem, but in a diffrent way.

I got this wierd thing form time to time, that one of my skills is randomly disabled, often spells,that when they rehcrage, they start rechargeing again, and again, and again, until I leave the instance.

This has not happend in PvP (yet) but even in PvE iI would say this is a serious bug.

Hold on. I've got to double-check those.
I suspect its one of those that was being used in Echovald Forest while I was using an Assassin's Promise build... and while I doubt it was the former, if it was then there is something glitchy going on.

Check out Wiki for mesmers in your area.

In Kourna there are a couple of mesmer foes that use the elite "Simple Thievery" - the description is below:

For 10...30 seconds, one random non-Spell is disabled for target foe, and Simple Thievery is replaced by that Skill.

Also watch what attacks you've got equiped. Focused shot and Mauraders both will cause other skills to recharge.

There is a whole plethora of annoying things they can spring on you to eliminate skills.

My advice is to have a powerful but unspecialised weapon handy to switch over to in the event of a skill-shutdown...... as I do with Shiro's Blades whenever my Illusionary Weaponry is stripped and recharging.

this happened to me:
restore life was disabled for like 20seconds, I did not use it, and I was carrying other healing prayers spells, so no, its not power block.

Slightly easier, http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Category:Kournans to see what skills they are using against you.
