Q:

Quick question for all the +condition dmg Ele builds out there.

When you down someone in PvP that has a lot of bleed and/or burn stacks on them, do the stacks drop off as they go into the downed state, or do they persist and continue to damage the target?

I ask because I’m looking at using a +condition build in PvP and was curious if it’s worthwhile to stack a large amount of bleeding on a target that is almost down. Why get 20 stacks of bleed on a target if they’re just going to fall off, right

{As an aside, I know I could go watch Ele PvP videos on youtube and pay attention to conditions when a target goes down, or test it myself, but I’m lazy and too many of the vids out there are grainy and hard to see what’s going on}

Thanks for your time
