Q:

How specifically does Sigil of Generosity function,

-only note on wiki says it uses the enemies condition dmg
-does it apply remainder duration or a static duration
-does it get boosted by your own condition duration
-does it transfer all stacks of said condition or just one
-does it proc when you don’t have a condition to transfer

just some questions, if you have the answers ty ;-)

remainder duration, unboosted
transfers all stacks
can proc as soon as a condition is on you, not having a condi doesnt waste it

unfortunately, most condi builds these days have trash condis that will bait your generosity and most builds that can use generosity hit and crit more than enough to proc it very quickly, meaning that most of the time you will not see meaningful use out of it.

back when perplexity wasnt yet nerfed, it was a totally different time and it was a much better sigil to have and i loved transferring 5-15 stacks of confusion back to a person and watching them just melt. but ever since specializations came out it just hasnt been a very good choice and id rather have cleansing or maybe purity or a different sigil.

kk,
ya I’m looking at specifically throwing back conditions that are possibly unique to me while ofcoarse removing it from myself. Right now I’m running sigil of torment as a random cover so it doesn’t really matter if its just a “trash” condi as it would be useful regardless in that respect.

I guess I will have to make a decision then if I want to overwrite my expensive sigil for a cheap one.
