Guild Wars 2

hey
wiki says about fire shield:

Fire Shield (5s): Enveloped in a fiery shield that burns foes, grants might each time you are struck (1-second cooldown per attacker). Increased outgoing damage; stacks intensity. Might (10s): +30 Power, +30 Condition Damage Deals damage every second; stacks intensity. Burning (1s): 131 Damage

==> when u have 1000 condi dmg, how much burning do u do?

greetings

Without any duration modifiers you will do about 288 damage per hit you take.
I like fire aura. But its questionable when you play a glass cannon build.

its extra dmg + bit might = Always good i think
was just wondering if the burning would be viable with condi build

It is ;-). I play this. Traited fire. I have 3 fire auras, swap to fire, focus 5 and feel the burn.
By being tanky in earth i swallow the hits and burn my oponents. Of course i have +condi duration in my equipement and burn duration from burning precision.
Its a nice damage add.
I can kill berzerker builds that mindlessly go into meele and beat on me within a few seconds XD. Thats propably why i have no problem with reapers. the co into meele, i go through fire to earth (over 3k armor with rock barrier + stone heart) + 40% prot, ignore(cleanse) chill and put up to 4k DPS on them … Fastest kill was a thief taht jumped on me, died in about 5 seconds shortly after cloaking to disengage …

If only Fire 5’s cool down was reduced. 40 seconds for a Fire Aura? Come on…

You can also overload and conjure weapons for extra auras.

It does almost nothing unless you’re running a bunch of aura traits, but it’s instant cast, so it has no opportunity cost to use, which automatically saves it from being totally useless

anyway pretty sure it’s balanced around having every possible aura trait
