Guild Wars 2

on april 15th, these runes will have condi damage as the main stat and will grant 45% burn duration. that’s 75% with 30 into explosives and 85% with smoldering. at 75% burn duration, blowtorch burn lasts 10 seconds, incendiary powder will last 7 seconds, and fire bomb will last 3 seconds per tick. any pvp engis going to be swapping?

edit: i just heard it burn duration will be at 95% with smoldering as smoldering is going up to 20%. :OOO

Holy kitten, +45% burn duration from these, +50% from food, +30% from explosives o_O

i believe condi duration caps at 100%. this will be more of a pvp rune as in wvwvw you can already reach the cap quite easily. or you could use this in wvwvw if you don’t feel like using food buffs.

here are the bonuses if anyone was wondering.
1. +25 condition damage
2. +10% burn duration
3. +50 condition damgae
4. +15% burn duration. when struck below 20% hp, gain 5 seconds of quickness (90 sec cd)
5. +100 condition damage
6. +20% burn duration. when using a healing skill, burn nearby foes for 3 seconds. (10 sec cd)

the 6 piece set is actually a 5 second burn if you factor in the condi duration

i cant wait to see what those other runes do for my HGH zerker nader build, since it will give me the might duration i need 100 more power and a permenant 7% damage increase, basically really good for my build and lets not forget the extra sigils advantage if sigils of battle dont change then i can potentailly take bloodlust for even more damage or something for better surviveability, either way im genna be a happy guy

If they don’t remove the 50% engurance gain when you use a healskill every 10 sec from Rune of the Adventurer, I’ll stay with that one. With all the useless stunbrakers and stab skills the engi has, dodging is the best thing we have to avoid the stunlocks.

currently i run http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vcAQJAqalUUp+qlcxELseRiMqQnBqQeJSh+ZZfe8WsFEC-ToAAzCuI0SplTLjWStsaN+YuA

if i use balthazar i’ll maybe drop prot injection for vigor. i’ll also probably also use battle and energy. or maybe battle/energy and purity.

Where do you guys find all the new runes and stuff?

Check out the main site’s blog here. Good luck!

Oddly enough, this screws over a guardian build I had that used these… although it wasn’t a very serious build in the first place, and I’m guessing I could probably find something better with the new rune changes.

However, these might work nice in a burning based build I planning on making… depends what happens to forge runes.
