Guild Wars 2

Since the update with the changes to the visuals, i am not necessarily sure if we have just been too worried about the way the auras now look. But has a second of up time been shaved off the auras once activated, they are now only 4 seconds in duration. Whilst the tool tip still remains 5seconds. Now this could be ping related from Aus but i hope others can check this because with other buffs such as the air staff swiftness it says 11s and it gives me that amount in duration. This is not the case anymore with auras they do not sync up.

Feel the burn 4 seconds tool tip says 5 seconds.
Flash Freeze 4 seconds tool tip says 5 seconds.
Aftershock 4 seconds tool tip says 5 seconds.

If this is the case it was changed things like this should be in the update notes and not to be found afterwards. Anet to confirm if this was intended at all.

I am unable to take a screen with the details because it is tool tip related and duration will not show up.

Wasn’t it always like this? It starts at 5.00 seconds, so it goes right into 4 seconds before your eyes can see it(0.01 second). Or atleast that’s how mmos displays their duration/time stuffs usually. Eitherway, even if it wasn’t like this before, they still last 5 seconds because of the 0 second mark(4, 3, 2, 1, 0).

Staff Air #4 gives me a 9 seconds, but still ends after the 0 second mark, so that’s 10 seconds like the tooltip of the skill tells me.
