Guild Wars 2

I know this was a problem that people had talked about previously, but my impression was that it was fixed. I just tested it out on a dummy though and the duration of my bleed did not increase by 33% with the Lingering Curse trait. This did not happen whether I had, or did not have, the hemophilia trait.

Any ideas on this? Is this still bugged or am I doing something obviously wrong?

Scepter bleed is duration capped at 13 seconds.

Ahh that would explain it.

Just tested it and you are right thanks for clearing that one up.

Correct me if im wrong but I think ppl have tested and found that condition duration increase caps at 100% and that the 33% stack on top of the cap. So a 5sec scepter 1 skill + 5sec (100% dur) + 3sec (33% rounded down) sounds about right =)

Unless they’ve fixed it, that trait gives Sceptre bleeds a 45% increase not a 33%, and only for the auto.

The above is right. I tested this myself. Conditions do indeed max out at 100% increased duration. I invested quite a bit in bleed runes before I found out about this and realized that going up above 100% was a waste.

However the 33% on the sceptor skill does stack over the 100%, which brings it to whatever someone else above said, which is about 13ish seconds.
