Guild Wars 2

Fetid Consumption makes each minion transfer a condition to itself every 10 seconds.

What I’d like to know is, is the timer on the Necromancer, or on the minions? In other words, will it transfer a batch of conditions every ten seconds, or does each minion have their own timer, potentially resulting in a staggered cooldown setup where you’re passing off a condition every two seconds?

Each minion has their own timer. That timer will keep rotating whether or not it stripped a condition off.

Exactly what I wanted to hear, thank you for the response.

Yep, and I’m 99% sure that the timer is set when the minion is spawned, so if you summon a Blood Fiend, the first condition transfer will happen 10 seconds after the summon.
