Guild Wars 2

It’s a fire field. It’s currently not affected by the trait. It should be.

I’m gonna assume that this is an oversight.

As far as I can tell, Fire Overload doesn’t register Glyph of Elemental Power as a skill either.

The HoT patch specifically changed the wording on Persisting Flames to “Fire fields from weapon skills last longer”. Obviously the reason for that tooltip change was to exclude Fire overload, which isn’t a weapon skill and is the only fire field we have that isn’t.

So definitely not an oversight.

Not sure if Persisting Flames does or doesn’t work with Wildfire now, though. I know at some point it didn’t. If it still doesn’t, then THAT is a bug / oversight.

Warhorn firefield also isn’t affected by the trait

This is disappointing as it eliminates synergy with other traitlines. Tell me why Scrapper can have 10% free crit chance simply for using the hammer with another trait but Ele cannot have a longer lasting fire field taking fire and tempest? It is just silly.
