Guild Wars 2

Not sure if this is the right section but,

The skill still says :" Greatly decrease the duration of conditions "

I see all the other skills got a percentage etc. But how much is that for this skill?

I’ve seen it listed as 100% condition duration reduction, but in reality I think it’s just pure immunity regardless of duration. ArenaNet doesn’t exactly have the best tooltips…

example: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bull's_Charge

Charge your foe and knock down fleeing foes.

Wait, what? Fleeing foes? It’s not reflected in the actual usage of the ability, though. It knocks down regardless of “fleeing”. Also, am I crazy because I swore this ability was called Bull’s Rush.

Yes, that’s why I am asking this, maybe they forgot this skill

It’s 80% reduction. So it works well with 20% reduction runes.

Let’s try the wiki!

Notes:
Grants immunity to unmodified conditions and gain 5 strikes of adrenaline per second.
Bug:
Grants full immunity to conditions regardless of condition duration modifiers.

I.e. it’s supposed to reduce the duration of all UNMODIFIED conditions to 0. It’s bugged so that even modified conditions (i.e. condition duration increases) are still reduced to zero.

This is just…wrong. Completely false.

Well, alrighty then. I’ll go test it again when I get home, haven’t tested it since the June patch so…..

It’s immunity to all conditions. Berserkers+endure pain = immune to all damage warrior.

Well this is what I mean lol, hes right, you are right.. I thought this patch would give clear explanation about the skills

Please guys from livestream look at it

So basically you don’t know its exact effect either?

I have 90% increased duration for all conditions on my necro in wvw and fought a warrior who used berserker stance (no food buffs) a day ago and the game just said immune whenever I used a skill that would put a condition on them whether it was bleed/chill/blind/poison whatever.

Berserker’s stance should read like this:

Complete immunity to all conditions applied during the duration of the stance.

Per your June 2013 patch note:

“Berserker’s Stance: Increased the recharge to 60 seconds. Reduced the duration to 4 seconds. This stance now reduces incoming condition duration by 100%, so only modified conditions can get through.”

Since then, the duration increased by 100% to 8 seconds and it has been bugged by granting condition immunity for the full duration.
