Superior Rune of Tormenting Is this working for you?

It doesn’t make any difference on Scepter skill #3 Illusionary Counter

It will cast torment but with these runes, it doesn’t change the base 8 secs

But strangely Koi Cake does change it instead and other conditions too. The 8 secs jumps to 11+ secs

Or is it a different kind of torment?

Not surprising. Runes of perplexity are bugged too in this fashion.

I’m refining a build using these runes and have tested them extensively in the past few days. These were my findings, and I went in-game just now to validate real quick:

• Tooltips are not updated with duration increases.
• With the only source of condition duration in the runes (torment @ 45%), the base 10s on the #6 heal proc increases properly to 14.5s. The base 8s illusionary counter proc increases properly to 11.5s.
• Adding koi cakes, torment duration is now 85%. The base 10s on the heal proc increases properly to 18s. The base 8s illusionary counter proc increases properly to 15s.

So, given those results, I would say these runes are working as expected, aside from the tooltip bug. In practice, I fought a thief in WvW yesterday – it was extremely satisfying to see him run away with that long 15s torment from illusionary counter. I just watched him run and eventually go down on the horizon.

Good to know!
Thanks

Was using them for a while they are working just fine. With the right set up and you Icounter a newbie you can have the torment do 14k plus or minus.
