Guild Wars 2

i know that the max duration extra for a condition is 100%,
so if i have for example 5 second of confusion with my scepter, if i have 100% condition duration it will be 10 seconds, and if i have 120% condition duration is still 10 seconds.

But imagine that my opponet has Melandru Runes (-25% condition duration):
If i have 100 % condition duration it will be: 5sec + 100%= 10 second – 25%= 7.5 second rounded to 7 second.

What if i have 140% condition duration it will be:
A) 5sec + 140%= 12 second – 25% = 9 or
B) 5sec + 140%= 10second -25%= 7.5 rounded to 7

I ask because i dont know if the cap 100% condition duration is before the skill is used or is a cap when the condition is released over the opponet
Thanks if anyone has an idea

Condition real duration isn’t rounded. Only Stun/Daze is as far as I know.

From what I understand, all condition duration modifier work on the base duration. So your 5s +100% = 10s condition when confronted to -25% from Melandru will lose 25% of 5s only, not 25% of 10s.

Also, I think that if you go above the cap, you counter some of the condition duration reduction effect.

Hello
We have decided to move this thread into the correct sub-forum. Thank you for your understanding.

Actually bonus duration and bonus resistance are directly added. I’m not sure how the overflow works (cap), but generally, it’s this:

base bleeding of 10s
→ conduration + 50% —> 10s * 150% = 15s
→ conduration -25% —> 10s * (100% + 50% – 20%) = 13s

Also do remember that +condition duration% and -condition duration% stack additively, not not multiplicatively. That is to say, 50% condition duration with -25% is +25%, not +12.5%.

For a decent while, people thought that the -condition duration% worked off of the final duration, which would make it so that the -25% condition duration on Runes of Melandru would counteract up to +33% condition duration.
