1. (fixed 8/3) The skill does not apply cripple as states in the Tooltip. (Since patch 1/3)
2. The skill is not affected by the trait Blade Training which is supposed to reduce CD of sword skills by 20%. The tooltip says 9.5s CD but it goes on 12s CD after use. (Since Release)
3.(can’t be fixed due to technical limitation source: ) Pathing of the Illusion that Leaps acts bugged aswell when not using it on flat ground. It cannot make it on the ramps and over any small obstacles even If you’re in the line of sight and within range. (Since Release)

Need a confirmation of Anet being aware of those bugs and that its being looked into.

While we are aware of and working on number 1 & 2, number 3 is a technical limitation of our system and not a bug. Unfortunately, this is not something we can change as of this time.

Thank you for the reports! We hope to get these fixed in an upcoming patch.

We have a potential fix for the bug with Illusionary Leap in the March update.

As for the third point brought up by the OP, some of you have surmised that this is a pathing issue with NPCs, and you’re correct; unfortunately, this is a limitation of our system and one that we do not have plans to change at this time.

Since this is part of the game’s design, the bug forum is not the appropriate place to discuss it. If you have further suggestions or comments on this skill, feel free to continue this discussion in the Mesmer profession forum or the Suggestions forum. If this issue is not fixed with the next build, please create a new thread to report the issue.

Thank you for your understanding! This thread will now be closed.
