Q:
As the title suggests… I’m incredibly confused about this. I’ve seen in a number of places 10sec as the duration of WoB, but quick hop into the PvP lobby from PvE shows quite clearly that it’s only 5sec in duration. Why is this?
A:
A year or more ago the duration of WoB was changed to 5 seconds from 10 seconds.
Unfortunately, Anet “forgot” to up the scaling of healing power with the change nerfing the overall healing dramatically. Vampiric Ritual siphons were also closet nerfed on WoB due to losing 5 seconds of possible procing.
It used to be 10 seconds but now it is 5.
