Condition duration. Before it was only a worry for people who used bleed or torment or confusion. Now its an issue for people who use burn. Before I could increase my burn duration KNOWING it would increase my damage because those odds and ends would add up to a full tick. Now they don’t. That 20% duration I get from the torch trait? It only increases the damage of half of my abilities. This needs some kind of fixing/balancing. If it wasn’t meant to always increase the damage that’s one thing but it feels like a leftover misfunction of improperly used mathmatics.

‘Leftover’ decimal seconds on conditionals are still calculated into damage (what Anet refers to as fractional damage). So if you have 1.5 seconds of burning on a target they will take the full burning damage on the first tick but only take 50% of the burning damage on the seconds tick since there was only has a second left on your burning’s timer.

but what if we could gather… and compound those round off errors. say in a bank of sorts. it’ll be so small and incremental, no one would ever even notice… then one day

be careful about gathering too much burning damage in one place…
