Guild Wars 2

Title: Primarily the venom share spec change that will share your condition specs.

Will the change take into account of your condition duration AND damage?
Will the condition damage a friend does from MY condition stats last until the condition he applied fizzles out or only when he has my charges of venoms?

After the patch with this skill change comes, If a friend is given my venom (Skale Venom)
he would get my condition duration and damage ( i hope duration is taken into account as well ) which makes conditions he applies deal the damage I would do for the duration of the conditions. But I foresee a small bug or an overlooked error in the change. As soon as the venom charges run out on him, the condition specs he has gotten from me goes away ( yes i know its supposed to ) but the damage shouldnt, at least it shouldnt until the condition goes away altogether. Does anyone else see this kicking in? Small burst of HUGE DoT and then….fizzle…. 1,1,1,1 DoT dmg… -_-

hoping this will be looked into, hopefully a dev can pass this along

That might depend on whether he can apply torment of his own? Which would probably only be a problem for non-condi Necros, but still a problem.

indeed, if he could apply torment himself it should still stack with my skale venom because it does now, but it should to my condition damage AND have its duration in effect for the initial duration of the FULL condition duration that HE applied… if i give him 4 torment, and he applies 2 with his own skill, the damage should, without anything else, apply 6 torment and the damage and duration that is done, last throughout ONLY 6 torment, as the counters go down the damage is still done until the time of the original 6 decipates.

having the ability to share venoms should not just last for just the duration of the charge ( stats included ) but should last for the duration of the condition AFTER the venom charge is gone UNTIL the venoms effect wears off. it should not tick downward towards damage, it would be against the change to the trait anyway.
