'Easily interrupted' skills

Hello everyone,

I'm wondering what it means when a skill description says 'this skill can be easily interrupted'. For instance, Ranger traps seem to be 'easily interrupted' as a category of skills. On the other hand, resurrection spells lasting 8 seconds don't warrant this warning notice, and yet with such a long casting time, I imagine they would pretty easy to interrupt. What makes these skills so easy to interrupt they deserve a warning? I did a search for the phrase 'easily interrupted', and I couldn't find an answer to this question.

Thanks,

Easily interrupted means any hit will interrupt your casting I believe.

Specifically, any "attack". Spell damage doesn't interrupt them, last I checked.

eclair is correct i would like to point out also that mesmer skills like mantra of concentration and mantra of resolve will work to keep these sklls from being interupted.

Do Mantra of Concentration and Mantra of Resolve counter knockdown?

It doesn't seem like they do. At least not Mantra of Concentration, as I use it quite frequently to help me cast Healing Spring in the middle of a mixup, and will still be interrupted occasionally by being knocked down.

I'd love to know for sure though..
