Guild Wars 2

Empathic removal says, “Pets periodically take conditions from you.” However, this is not what occurs. Instead the conditions just vanish. The conditions are not transferred to the pet.

So what’s it supposed to be?

Honestly, I think the pets should take the conditions. Because rangers are a bit OP in the right hands.

it removes every condition you have every 10 seconds as long as your pet is alive. easily the best grandmaster trait in the game.

He he, you are funny!

Yes, let’s help the pets die EVEN FASTER! Good idea!

I am positive I seen my pet get the conditions instead of me, if not the perhaps certain conditions aren’t transfered wich could be a bug or maybe the timer left on it is so short when it’s removed that it never shows up on the pet, that is also possible sometimes I guess.

As for rangers OP? get the kitten out of here with that bullkitten, we are likely the weakest of all classes in general.

This makes the trait conceptually fair, but the fact that you don’t have a way to cure your pet of conditions aside from using Healing Spring makes this a win-lose situation. The fact that there are no pets that were designed to absorb that kind of damage except for bears (which have garbage damage/utility otherwise) is another point to consider. Making Empathic Removal work as was apparently intended means a pet rework will have to take place as well.

If ranger condition removal wasn’t gimped without HS/ER this issue wouldn’t have existed in the first place.
