Guild Wars 2

There has been a lot of talk about conditions in the current meta. While I think that conditions builds should be viable (equally strong as power), they are just too good right now. My opinions (they were tuned to not directly interfere with PvE balance):

• I think weakness is a big problem for that, since it directly counters power builds. Either make it stronger against conditions too or reduce their effectiveness (or even better, duration) against power builds.
• One idea I had was reducing the condition damage (except burning, as it is more burst oriented), but making them deal increased damage for each 3 seconds on a target. Example: reduce bleeding damage by 30%, but every 3 seconds that bleeding would get 10% more extra damage (that would stack over time). So after 9 seconds bleeding would deal 30% more damage and after 30 seconds of being on the target, it would deal 100% more damage. -> This idea reduces the burst damage of conditions while still keeping them viable. Numbers would of course have to be tweaked.

It could be improved alot simpler than that. Simply prioritizing the removal of damage conditions and you would already see an improvment.

ONE QUESTION~ HOW How HOW~~ many kind of condition in this kittenING GMAE?
