Bowl of Lemongrass Poultry Soup : -40% condition duration

Loaf of Saffron Bread : -20% condition duration

why?

Why would you be allowed to keep the +40% duration food but others shouldn’t be able to use the -40% condi duration food? Do you want to make condi’s OP in small scale fights?

The allround condition duraiton increase should be smaller that the specific condition duration increase. So nerf it to the allround +/-10% condi duration and all is fine imho.

+40% bleed(…) duration food is there because i dont see a reason to nerf condi build with only 1 dmg condition and difference between +40% condition duration and +40% bleed duration is still pretty big when you have full condi necro.

It still wouldn’t make sense, you could easy reapply the 2 condi’s cleared by the heal skill, and the other wouldn’t be able to remove it again ,unless he has some other skills for condi clear, that most do. But again you can easy reapply the condi’s.

I think as TyPin said should be good.
The +/- 40% condi duration food should be changed to +/-10% condi duration and let the others stay as they are at +15%.
+40% duration is to much in small scale fights (specially if you wouldn’t have a -40% duration like you suggested). I already now see warriors and guardians (who can condi clear well is most builds, not all builds tho) complaining about fighting necro’s. So your suggested change would make it even worse. This would make classes that don’t have a lot of access to condi clear never to be played again in small scale fights.

I played necro and I know that the difference between +40% all condi duration and +40% only one condi duration is a big deal. But without the food you can already go to 20-25 stacks easy (other ways of adding condi duration)

The problem is +40% and -40% food are both available sure, but the +40% food is useful 100% of the time in all fights where the -40% food is a counter and not always useful. The player countering conditions is left at a disadvantage against a direct damage dealer, creating a rock/paper/scissors rotation. There shouldn’t be any +40% food but I think the -40% should stick around.

+100% condition duration is easy, and doesn’t require runes. To get max reduced duration it requires a full set of runes and still only -65%. When you build a direct counter to something it should counter it. Specifically I mean the durations should wash and end up with the condis lasting as long as their base skill is supposed to.

Mending(warrior) 5 condi, 20sec reus
Withdraw(thief) 2 condi + chill,immobilize,cripple, 15sec reus
Hide in Shadow(thief) 2 condi + burn,poison,bleed, 30sec reus
Mantra of Recovery(mesmer) 2condi, 10sec reus
Med Kit(engineer) 2condi, 10sec reus
Cleansing Burst(engineer) 4 condi, 20/15reus
Antitoxin Spray(all) 2condi + poison,torment, confusion, 30sec reus

Add to this traits,runes,sigils and other condi cleans skills and you have pretty nice defense v condi builds.

My suggestion will nerf(-40%) 92% of all conditions and bost(+40%) only 1 so even without Bowl of Saffron-scented Poultry Soup this is nerf to condi builds.

Yea because we all play with the same build. Try to do this with Apothecary(healing) build when you have only bleed,poison,chill,cripple,vulnerability and +/- 1200 condi power.

What the…just no.

This is not a viable suggestion in my opinion, so no thank you!
