Guild Wars 2

Am I the only one who has figured this out? I see so much QQ about burning being useless because of removal. All you have to do is stack bleeds and vulnerability onto burns, making it more difficult to remove your conditions. Also with the new patch sigil of earth will stack with sigil of geomancy. Just my thoughts on the condition build problem.

Pretty sure that many are aware of such existing things, but are you trying it on target dummy or what? You make it sound like its a “curse” you cast, and vowala countdown is starting. When are you going to apply your “burning” effect?

You can constantly apply all 3 conditions. I don’t see the problem with guardian condition builds. Maybe I’ve missed something.

We have plenty of burning options: Torch 4, Virtue of Justice, Defenders Flame, Judges Intervention, Shelter with Defenders flame.

What you’re missing is that no amount of condition damage that we can apply can ever actually compete with direct damage builds. Burning uptime isn’t a problem. The problem is that condition damage builds don’t compete with direct damage. Unlike other classes, our condition damage doesn’t tie into a survivability gameplay style either, like bleed warriors that have tons of health and armor.

We’ll see what happens after the patch.
