Guild Wars 2

Since condition damage is awarded in 1 second ticks, if a skill duration exceeds an exact integer number of ticks, does the remaining fraction get awarded at the end, or is it dropped?

Researching the Wiki or the forums produces a lot of obsolete data, and I thought the game changed to fractional awards.

However, I’m tweaking up my necro and find the the tooltips show the damage being dropped.

It does. That wasn’t always the case though.

The “leftover” isn’t always at the end. Sometimes it is in the beginning.

Yes it used to be to truncate anything over a full second.

For me it was making sure to get +% bleed duration to 34% or 67% or 100% to get the most out of sharpened edges trait for rangers that is 3sec base duration. Now it doesn’t matter what +% bleed duration I have.

So it’s still another tool tip error? The tool tip rounds to an integer number of stacks, which is what caused me to write the OP.

In the history of the game, has any tool tip error ever been corrected? I still see the %crit being wrong by the same % it was at launch, and the same can be said for some necro cast times.

In another game I played, Diablo 2, we called the character screen the LCS.
Lying Character Screen.

Yes. There have been big balance patches filled with nothing else but tooltip text fixes.
