Has anyone tested ghost pepper poppers at night since the rework?

If you run agony and malice on weapons and full viper’s with ghost pepper poppers I feel like dps would be much higher than the current meta condi build.

20% is nothing for a bleed necro using vipers or trailblazer.

Thanks for the reminder. I will try adding poppers to the menu for an experimental bleed burst build.

The thing is you can easily get back to 100% duration with different rune/sigil choices.

Agreed. Full Viper’s and food allow opportunity for other conditions on runes and sigils. Go back to focusing only on bleed and that allows more power and other stat’s for a hybrid build not reliant on sceptre AA.

you end up using krait runes and agony sigil, you lose not only bonuses from berserker runes but also 30% burning/torment/poison duration. i haven’t tried it but by intuition i predict it wouldn’t be worth it, especially when you have to wear different armor and weapons just for night time fractals

Ya I should have specified that it’s only real use is wvw where extending conditions beyond 5 seconds is pointless. I wouldn’t run this food in pve even in night time only instances.

Please keep in mind that there are a number of forum members for whom English is not their primary language so subtleties like sarcasm are difficult to distinguish. Writing does not well convey body language or tone of voice, either.

There is also a wide range of background for those who are native English speakers.

Please try to be clear when writing comments.

Good find, but completely useless in raids.

I’ve been using ghost pepper poppers on a power necro for several months now (only at night). The chill effect on its own is pretty good as a control effect not even considering any bleed stacking.

It doesn’t help that a lot of power based foods are pretty blah. 100 power and ferocity doesn’t help those infinite cloak builds. Increasing their cooldown times does.

I’m sorry but I don’t watch that kind of stuff. If you want me to take something away from that you will have to explain it.

I too had the idea and tested it. Hell yeah it works. Got a pretty good dps on golem with dagger (0 chill of it’s own) just using the pepper popper. Bad news is raids aren’t at night. So you can’t use it there sadly.

But in maps with night mode – yeah, it can be a real kitten damage boost.
