Guild Wars 2

I am working on a new build where it requires written in stones grandmaster earth trait (no it’s not a signet build…. )The trait states: “Maintain the passive effects of signets when you activate them”. It works as described with signets of fire, earth and water but when you activate signet of air, the passive remains for only 20 secs while the utility actual cd is around 30 secs (not traited to reduced cd) and it also shows on the buff section to be 10% speed increase instead of the actual 25%. Is this intended or actually glitched?

Seen this mentioned elsewhere right after patch. Sounds like a glitch since it’s using the old cooldown. Looks like they need to update the trait action with the new cooldown.

This is a glitch, and I ran into it today myself. The ‘buff’ you gain to maintain the passive effect is still set to the old timer. They missed a step when changing the CD. Hope we see a fix for this soon as it’s pretty annoying if you plan to use signets.

Bugs like this speak volumes for Arenanet’s Q&A and software design…
