Guild Wars 2

What if guardian could do condition damage with chill? We already have a weak chill trait Glacial Heart we could change it to Chill does damage, chill a foe every time you burn them.
It would help with control and would not require having to sacrifice too much survivability.Add Supreme Justice to that it can make a nice damage source and you wouldn’t sacrifice burn damage if you already have Amplified Wrath.
It may look like it’s in the wrong trait line but a few of our traits are already.

It would be OP.

It would be OP.

Not really it would replace stack conditions and control ones. 66% less movement speed and skill recharge would totally make up for bleed on crit,swap or any crit sigil. Condition guardian could run Dire and Carrion mix.They are many traits that are not right but others builds are doing fine.

Sure maybe yours will not, but my guardian will be.

Sounds OP to me too. Although it’d probably be fine if it had an appropriate ICD, or if it proc’ed on something more rare like blinds.

I think it would be very interesting if they made Glacial Heart a grandmaster trait, and made it so it changed VoJ from a burn to a chill with appropriate durations. It would really give Guardians a soft CC capability they don’t currently have with an appropriate downside (the loss of burn, a strong condition even without condi damage).

I’ve seen this idea around before, and I think it has merit.
