Do EG skills work with Alchemy in WvW?
With alchemy (Alchemical tinctures) healing mist removes 1 condi and super elixir removes 2 condies non of the other skills remove condies on your self. Without alchemy only Super elixir removes a condi on your self (only 1 this time). There are many tooltips that give wrong information. Sigil of cleansing is also a good condi remover in wvw.

So you think it does remove conditions but only the tooltip is wrong? I might need to perform further testing, but I could have sworn Acid Bomb didn’t remove any conditions on me when traited.
Also, thank you for your advice. I do run Sigil of Cleansing and it is a blessing, especially in dealing with confusion.

Acid Bomb does not remove a condition, only the 2 skills i mentioned remove conditions on your self when traited (healing mis (1 condi) and super elixir (2 condies)). not traited only super elixir removes a condition.

Uhm I tested this in sPvP some days ago and acid bomb removes a condi when trained.

Acid bomb does not remove a condition (when traited) in WVW according to this video.

Can you provide proof for PVP? I can’t test it out for my self the comming 10 hours.
Acid bomb isn’t thrown or consumed, so it doesn’t remove a condi. It does give you might though because of HGH
Super Elixir isn’t effected by it either; it removes one condition by default.
Healing mist though works for all elixir traits for whatever reason despite not being an elixir or being thrown or consumed.

Super elixir is affected by alchemical trinctures. It removes 1 condi by default and 2 condies when traited.

I am pretty certain that Elixir Shell cures a condition with Alchemical Tinctures, and it’s not consumed or thrown either.
Thank you all for your answers! Since there is no consensus yet, I will test all of this later tonight, and let you know what I found. It might be a good occasion to update the wiki page:
Yea I know elixir shell removes a condi for some reason.
It’s honestly really confusing

After further testing, I’ve found the following. When you have Alchemical Tinctures (later, AT) traited:
- Acid Bomb never removes a condition (which is a shame, if you want my opinion, since it works with HGH), and naturally the tooltip shows nothing special.
- Healing Mist and Elixir Shell remove a condition in both pvp and wvw, and the tooltips are correct.
- Super Elixir removes 2 condis (one baseline, one with AT) in both wvw and pvp, but the tooltip in wvw is wrong and doesn’t show the AT condition removal.
For more coherence, I think it would be better if ALL elixir skills worked with AT. One more condi cleanse on a 12s CD is far from OP, and it would be a lot less confusing.
Uhm I tested this in sPvP some days ago and acid bomb removes a condi when trained.
Could you check? It’s not consistent with my own results.

I agree that all elixirs should work alchemical tinctures. And your findings correlate with my game experience.

Checked it and I am wrong: acid bomb does not remove a condition.
IMO if it has “Elixir” in the name or is tagged as an “Elixir” (e.g. Acid Bomb, Healing Mist) it should work for both HGH and AT.
They went through the trouble of adding the “Elixir” tag to tooltips and changing Elixir F to Glob Shot to clear up ambiguity regarding traits like HGH and AT. I haven’t tested personally, but it appears as though Acid Bomb is the exception to the rule that anything that works for HGH should work for AT (if I’ve learned anything over the years it’s not to trust Anet’s tooltips).
Solution (assuming Acid Bomb is the only exception): Either make Acid Bomb a proper Elixir worthy of the “Elixir” tag in the tooltip with condi removal on Alchemical Tinctures, or remove the “Elixir” tag and it’s HGH functionality.
