Shadow's Embrace bug or feature?
Actually in sr it removes 1 cond every 3 secs, not sure what are you talking about
Thief might not be as strong as last year
but they’re a lot stronger
than they will be next year!

Just watched it remove 5 condis while thief stood in it.

And you’re 100% sure he wasn’t shotting through some sort of a combo-field (the one that removes conditions when shot through, light?)? Or other factors outside of SR…?
which kind of condi? what build that thief was running? Couldn’t be that burning poison or bleeding were removed by pain response? But overall have you ever tried that trait, that was already fixed months ago?

It’s been like this they need to fix the description I dare them to nerf the main reason we go in SA.

Was observing a 1v1 and thief used 60206 standard DP build, I’m afraid it acts as I described. Sagat appears to confirm.
Never payed close attention to it.
I am 100% positive you clean one condition every time you enter stealth, but I am not sure you clean conditions every stack.
Absolutely! You don’t clean conditions per stacks! the first one upon entering stealth ane then one every three secs. That’s it, and personally in a game with a huge amount of spammable conditions, this trait would be balanced even if it would have removed 1 cond every stack

That’s not really how balance works… That’s like saying with how spammable power attacks are, 100% protection uptime and 1 aegis every 2 seconds would be balanced.
Conditions are just a damage source. The bigger problem is they scale too well for a single stat so many condition users are also pretty tanky but thats pretty off-topic.

It’s a bug they haven’t bothered to fix for years. Makes stealth spam thief builds a pain in the kitten to deal with on condi builds.
If you think it’s bad in spvp, where stealth isn’t as frequently used as it hurts capping points, imagine WvW in which thieves are BP>HS’ing every 4 seconds.
If only my ranger or necro or mesmer had such spammable access to condi clears on a skill combo that also forcefully drops target and comes with the perk of one of the stronger nukes with no telegraphs in the game.
But nope, it’s ele/warrior/thief/guardian land.
Well, given that you can still CnD off keep walls in WvW, I doubt they’d fix any bug in this regard anytime soon.
Of course, shadow’s embrace is one of the only things that allows thieves to combat condition heavy builds, like a PU mes. So… maybe it’s ok being a bit broken for the moment?
General rule for tool tips and intended/broken questions.
If it’s a Mesmer: It’s a bug. Prepare for nerf.
If it’s a Thief: Working as intended. Every Thief will confirm.
