I was wondering how I can get the longest fear duration currently possible mainly to get the most out of terror? I know the trait for 50% duration is a must but what gear/runes/sigils/food will help the most?
I also was wondering if anything increases terror damage? (Power/might/vulnerabity)
Thanks in advance.

Terror scales off of condition damage, so stacks of might will boost the damage done by Terror / fear since they increase your condition damage as well as your power. The power stat and stacks of vulnerability will not.

For runes, I believe Superior Runes of the Necromancer provide 20% bonus duration to fear, and there’s food that boosts condition duration by up to 40% (Super Veggie Pizza, among others).

Mixing insults with your post is like pooping in a salad.
It’s pretty obvious, and nobody’s impressed.

Thanks, so a 3 second fear with 110% condition duration added becomes how long?

It would be 6 second (cap at 100% condition duration) However our fear source dont give a 3 second base fear.

You have:
Doom →1-1,5 second to 2-3 sec at 100%
Reaper’s Mark → 1 second to 2 sec
Reaper’s Protection → 2 sec to 4 sec
Fear on Downed → 2 sec to 4 sec
Downed Fear → 2 sec to 4 sec
Spectral Wall → 1 sec to 2 sec

Well the skull fear is a four second fear according to the skill fact. Will that be extended to 8 seconds? Gonna test if no one knows.

So I did some testing with the grawl ritual totem consumable and the skill fact says 4 second AOE fear when In melee range. I had exactly 100 % extra fear duration (50 from trait, 20 from necro runes, and 30 from spite) and terror only hit 6 seconds. This means that either the skill fact is wrong or I somehow am not getting 100% bonus fear duration. No big deal since the item had a 120 second added some time ago which makes it an emergency escape in pve at best.
