Intimidating Aura stripping Shadow Form... 

Intimidating Aura

Enchantment Spell. For 60 seconds, if you strike a foe who has less Health than you, that foe loses 1 Enchantment and Intimidating Aura ends.


Strike

v.tr.
1.
a. To hit sharply, as with the hand, the fist, or a weapon.
b. To inflict (a blow).
2. To penetrate or pierce: was struck in the leg by a bullet.


Shadow Form

Elite Enchantment Spell. For 5..17..20 seconds, all hostile Spells that target you fail and all attacks against you miss. When Shadow Form ends, lose all but 5..41..50 Health.

Am I the only one thinking something's wrong there?

RE: Intimidating Aura stripping Shadow Form... 

So the enemy Intimidating aura is stripping your shadow form? That's weird, you'd think they'd have to actually hit you for that to work. Poorly worded skills FTL.

Consider sending a ticket to ANET about it, they might not have intended it to work like that.

RE: Intimidating Aura stripping Shadow Form... 

Makes no sense, I don't see how it can work, in shadow form u cannot be hit at all, therefore that attack wouldn't work...

RE: Intimidating Aura stripping Shadow Form... 

Thaskippy: I should have mentioned that it got me killed still.
And yet it shoudn't.

Edit:
Ok looks like a very specific situation:
Enemy Dervish uses Intimidating Aura, attacks one my allies, adjacent to me, using Chilling Victory... I'm struck with cold damage and that strips SF... Yet I don't quite understand why the damage of Chilling Victory is applied AFTER SF is stripped.

RE: Intimidating Aura stripping Shadow Form... 

It should strip SF since a strike is the action of the attack, it doesnt mean you hit, but the intention is to hit.
But you just attemtp to hit, you strike.
Hope I make any sense o.o

RE: Intimidating Aura stripping Shadow Form... 

I think Intimidating Aura can trigger off of the additional AoE cold damage of Chilling Victory, which is why it can remove Shadow Form. The additional cold damage is applied as long as the user of Chilling Victory has more health, regardless of hit, miss, or block. I believe Wiki says that CV is bugged because the additional damage should have two criteria to trigger, but currently it only needs the the >HP one instead of on hit and >HP

Chilling Victory:If it hits, this attack strikes for +5...17 damage. Whenever it hits a foe who has less Health than you, target foe and all adjacent foes are struck for 15...51 cold damage.

Ok yep, forgot that Chilling Victory was considered AoE then... if they hit an adjacent ally, I take the AoE from CV + it strips.

Ditto on bug, though if they hit an adjacent ally of mine it will trigger, and if I'm the only one with an enchantment then, Intimidating Aura will strip it... and counts as PBAoE: thus goes through SF

Doesn't seem like that big a deal to me. I mean how often will that happen?(although I do think the skill is worded poorly)

Both actually... That's what is still bugging me, the AoE damage from CV got counted AFTER the stripping. And was the death blow.

No its not, Chilling Victory's conditional dmg always deals dmg. Idk why but it does.

If u found this out by farming the deathbringer take fiegned and thet will get stripped not SF.
