Guild Wars 2

But it’s about condition damage!!!!!!!!!

I couldn’t find any threads talking about Kindred Zeal.
I’m suspecting that it’s been overlooked as we only have burning as our damaging condition.

I was just messing around with a flame legion themed build for my charr and noticed with 25 stacks of corruption and might I get around 2663 condition damage (though I can only maintain at least 15 stacks realistically).

This is only just horse playing around with Kindred Zeal. For anyone serious about min/maxing, I bet you can get even more condition damage than that.

With free condition duration from maxing zeal doesn’t seem like a really good thing to try out?

Or is burn just not worth it?

P.S. Don’t forget that we can get other conditions like confusion with 4x Perplexity runes.

You could try this for a while but with burning being our only condition and the time it lasts isn’t all that great for putting so much into condition damage. I only see condition damage being really useful if you can put 2-3 out with every few hits (such as scepter on a necro). Its not that its a bad idea for guardian, I just think there are better options.

Here is what I do that might interest you:

I’m full PVT, I run “Save Yourselves”, Signet of Wrath, and “Stand your Ground”. I’ve been playing with healing breeze over shelter but I’m not sure which I like more.

Anyways, the Signet of Wrath plus Wrathful Spirit and Vengeful makes for some pretty good damage output on top of the physical damage I already do.

Keep in mind too that this is for small and large scale WvW.

There’s a stickied thread about Burning right up there at the top: Pyroclasm.

And it’s definitively been determined to not be worth it.
