Guild Wars 2

Hey guys. As you know converting conditions into boons is an ability very few professions have other than Guardians. In fact, aside from Well of Power for Necromancers, Guardians probably have the monopoly on converting conditions of both himself and allies. Converting conditions on allies can be done through the Grandmaster trait in Honor tree, Pure of Voice. I admit though, that I haven’t given much thought about the trait until I saw the thread made by Bhawb and Blackmoa, listing the boon priority of all boon corruption mechanics Necromancer has. I thought that condition conversion probably too has a condition priority list and I intend to slot the trait to test it in dungeons and general content. Though it is fair to assume that the Guardian community is bigger than Necromancer’s, so if you guys have anything to share or such detailed list of priority is already found, please discuss here. Thank you

Been waiting for this

FAQ #Q21

I’ve never actually ran a shout build being it’s not my play style, but that’s pretty cool! Not to mention Absolute Resolution, removing 3 conditions on everyone.
This guardian deserves a cookie.

I wasn’t able to log in much these days but from what I have seen Pure of Voice has Cripple high on the priority (even higher Poison and perhaps Bleed) and Weakness is one of the last removed conditions. I intend to test it in PvP duel with my Necromancer friend hopefully today.

Edit: My observations were based on conditions applied at the same time (to eliminate the first come first serve rule if it exist) and I’ll continue to test in that way. Therefore I’ll test with a Necromancer with Signet of Spite for simultaneous application of conditions, while also testing if priority is based on the time of applicayion later on. Please feel free to share insights if you feel I am too slow.

Actually having sensible priority on these single cleanses would probably make condi classes far too balanced. As a general rule, don’t rely on small cleanses to do anything useful, just enjoy it as a small bonus of using the skill

According to Bhawb’s and Blackmoa’s work and from what I could see on Cripple and Weakness, priority is there whether we like it or not. I am only curious of the highs and lows of this priority and how the trait I like works on general.

just to correct you OP, a traited warrior warhorn has the ability to turn conditions into boons

You didnt correct me on that as that won’t allow you to remove conditions off both allies and yourself, as I stated in OP. My point stands still, that aside from Well of Power we are the only source of condition converting for both allies and self, thank you very much.
