Guild Wars 2

as for now no builds used this trait

this trait remove 1 boon every 10 sec

problems:
almost every profession can proc boons rapidly (ele, guard,engi,warrior,thief, mesmer)
most of the fights tend to be over under 10 sec or 20 sec
you dont have control on which boon will be removed and when

mesmer,necro ,engis and thieves have skills and traits which remove boons when hitting enemies (aoe removeable/transfer)

solution:
make it a better boons removable
or make it shorter as guardian proc burning often

1. when apply burning to a foe remove 1 boon with every second of burning (10 sec recharge) – longer boons removal
2. when apply burning to a foeS remove 1 boon (5 sec recharge) – aoe boon removal

this change will bring bunker guardian even better (and active) and also make the medzerk/hybrid more better in team support and 1v1

ppl claim guardian cant perma burning so it wont be op if every seconds of burning you remove boon as enemy will cleanse it so you have 10 sec cd to your next burning proc and it will do better then removing 1 boon every 10 sec
or
by making it aoe removable of 1 boon every 5 sec it got more team support and to see how bunker can stand in a point forever without doing anything but contesting and must to think twice and dodging etc… also its not op as most boons end before 5 sec

also it will make some meta build like d/d ele , engi , guardian rethink about their boons with 20 might stacks protection regeneration etc..

I actually like the alternative ideas you came up with. They have compromise and limits, while making the trait more useful in pvp.

The best I have seen this trait is when fighting karka and removing retaliation and regeneration to make for easier pve fights. Other than that, it remains unused.

I use this trait on dredge end bosses and ascalon

i never pved so…

Well the problem with this trait atm is that it’s kinda uncontrolable due to the passive virtue of justice triggering it and that it just removes the last applied boon without priority on anything.

A simple change that would make this trait good would be removing 2 boons on targets arround you when you use virtue of justice with priority on something relevant like stability, might or protection.

This would be a bit too strong for a adept trait though and seing how boon remove on shatter and boon remove on steal are in master slots it should probably be a master trait if they would buff it.

All that they really need to change is make the proc per enemy instead of 10s absolute. They’re many different ways to proc burning, but it’s weird when you see your voj not remove a book because you already removed something 8s ago

actually i feel like removing 2 boons on virtue of justice active (just the person the active hits though) targetting prot and might would be a perfect buff for this trait. I’d take out my vigor for it probably.

Remove the cd from Searing Flames. Make it a VoJ active.

Make Purity (Valor V) only proc when you burn a foe.
