Guild Wars 2

Given that Automated Response will be changed from a condition immunity to -50% condi duration when below 33% health, will Diamond Skin for elementalists be seeing a similar change to something like -50% condition duration while above 75% health?

I guess it comes down to whether or not the nerf to automated response was purely because of the decap engineer spec or if you felt that the trait was bad design and if you do believe the latter why not change Diamond Skin as well? I have my own opinion on passive condition immunity but I’d rather keep this as unbiased as possible and would like a simple answer.

Diamond Skin might as well not exist if they change it at all.

If diamond skin gets the same treatement as ar…it’ll become something like 50% reduced condi duration for an extra wooping 8% larger threshold.

Outside of sPvP the Automated Response change is a borderline buff because you can combo food and runes to still get the -100% duration. Even though Diamond Skin is a BS trait as it is, making it -50% condition duration while above 75% health would be ridiculously overpowered.

What they should do with these traits is to make a bubble that pops up when struck in the HP threshold that blocks x incoming conditions before popping, with a reasonable 10-15s CD.
