Barrage - Now a million times harder to get

ArenaNet must've forgotten to check on the bosses that carry elites.

It's now literally impossible to cap Barrage off of Markis. As soon as he dies the cinematic plays giving you no time to target his corpse and select the skill.

Only other boss that carries it (that I know of) is in Abaddon's Mouth on the island to the west. I'd love to go there but 1) there won't be much if any groups going there and 2) they decided to nerf infusion without upping the amount of armor pieces henchmen have infused.

If anyone else knows any other bosses that carry barrage let me know. Until then I can only hope for a quick fix to it. (Was it so hard for them to leave in the ability to capture while the boss is alive???)

Simple adjustment just needs to be made to SoC. If it's targeting a living bosses, capture previous spell. If it's targeting a dead boss go on with the new process.

err that does happen. you can still cap off bosses in the traditional way - i did so earlier today. its just another option to kill the boss and get it then.

You sure? I couldn't do it the traditional way. Is Markis still not considered a boss? I was told they fixed that.

Markis is not the only one using this skill.

you realize that if you kill markis before his jade guardians, that you can still cap the skill. Just did it today
