Last time I played I used Traited elixers to remove conditions from myself either in Dungeons/Fractals or sPvP/WvW, I see loads of builds with seemingly NO sort of real condi removal, anyone have any advice as how to remove conditions.

Yeah, check out this thread.

It is similarly titled and on the same subject matter, literally 10 threads down then you created this new thread. As most subjects have been covered already, and multiple times, it may be in your best interest to look through a page or two in any subforums before making a new thread.

It will likely answer your question sooner then waiting for a reply in your own thread would.

The other thread is more focused on sPvP. I think it was mentioned in that thread that condis are not really in the meta atm for sPvP so you can get away with incidental removal. But entering WvW with little to no condi removal is a death sentence.

Form a WvW perspective you have a lot more space to kite around in and Elixir C with HGH can be used multiple times a fight if you have good kiting ability.

I try and squeeze as much condi clear as possible in for WvW taking alchemy line for alchemical tinctures, HGH, hidden flask(procs alchemical tinctures) and transmute.

I also take Inventions for mecha legs reduction of all movement impairing condis, the movement speed boost, and for the minor trait cleansing synergy to boost my healing turret a little. And of course the horribly nerfed AMR, this should be on say a 40 second timer. 90 seconds is a joke.

For my skills i take Healing Turret boosted by cleansing synergy, rocket boots for those long duration immobilises like venom shares, and as a kicker it boosts my kiting ability and is a blast finisher for my water fields. And Elixir C/Toss Elixir C.
