Save Yourselves change
On the contrary, this makes it actually viable in wvw now, as with boon duration the 2+ seconds of resistance is more than enough to clear all the condi’s off the guard who uses it.
Ah, didn’t think of the zergs. You are right, and with nerfs to Epidemic this might make a significant change in condi play.
So we have more time to press Contemplation of Purity after “Save Yourselves!”, less deaths from lag!
Its garbage for spvp.
yeah weve been asking for resistance for ages, this is a good fix…with some boon duration gear and sigil of concentration you can get 2.5 sec no prob.
“Buff my main class, nerf everything else. "
Meh, it’s a nice thought of adding something to SY, would of been even better if they made it give additional resistance duration for every condi pulled, kind of like Pain Absorption.

Hmm, guess SY! would be nice in zergs. The thing about CoP is that condis get reapplied too fast anyways. Yea there’s corrupts, but that’s also a problem with CoP. Plus the cooldown is lower. (40s with the shout trait)
You’d still need a way to actually cleanse them though through PF or F2 or eles. (or revs lol)
It should be fun to try. I’ve never settled on the 3rd slot for zergs and have literally put everything besides spirit weapons, signets, and SY! (where the first 2 are Stand Your Ground and Purging Flames)
for there you have been and there you will long to return.

Thing is, CoP can also give you resistance, because if you are condi bombed, it’s almost 99% certain you have chill on you.
SY is strictly a support tool, or used in niche solo pve situations. I wouldn’t use it for the resistance alone.
SY trained:40 sec cd
CoP untrained:40 sec cd
Sometimes after a SY the guardian died to condi cause the lag prevent it to convert condition.. with resistance we can safely concert condition even with some lag, CoP can give resistance but it’s better to use it just after SY to don’t let your group die (WvW)
Some reason I always thought it was 60s. Apparently they changed it a while back.
