I am working on my first condition build and i need a bit of help

1: the new runes of torment give durration to torment. so condition duration runes does not effect torment skill?

2: what is preferred, condition damage or duration?

I was thinking of making a condtion tank with healing ability and condition removal, so id need condition damage, toughness, healing power

Any other comments or helpful tips will be appreciated

1) Condition duration runes affect ALL conditions
2) current state of the game, damage imo

We have very little in terms of condition removal, other then traits that are dotted about. Shattered Conditions if you want to go with Shatter condition could work very well and the sigil to send a condition to the target (60% chance on crit, 10second cool down) would be quite decent as well

I wouldnt concentrate on the torment runes as we have 1 skill that applies it and its not 100% reliable.

Perplexity is for Confusion, not all conditions. Confusion is its own condition.
