Guild Wars 2

The 10% Condition duration always bugged me, I mean 10% for a GM trait is hardly useful.

Especially in pvp that we don’t get food buffs, and we lost the condition duration in the Marksmanship tree.

So I suggest changing it to maybe an effect that is related to the name.

Some examples:

• Create a bonfire at the end of your dodge/evade ( X ICD)
• Create a flame trap at the end of your dodge/evade (X ICD)
• Gain Quickness when you dodge/evade (X ICD)
• Next 5 attacks Cause torment (10-12 Second ICD)
• Make the 10% damage proc with evades

Bump! really? no one uses this trait?

The only time that trait is useful is if you’re a dedicated short bow user who isn’t getting great value out of quick draw. That isn’t many people. The condition duration isn’t really meaningful, but the +dmg is nice for the somewhat hybrid nature of the sb. Mostly, I just run it for pve scenarios for the piercing arrows and lower 2&4 CD. Keeps me from falling behind the LB 5 and melee cleave abilities.

The moment I go PvP or WvW, quick draw gets swapped in.

It absolutely should proc on evades though. And 6 seconds over the current 4. Then we’ve got a worthy GM trait.

But condi duration is still worthless in pvp, a 10 sec bleed would become an 11 sec bleed for a GM trait, 11 sec bleed for 4 seconds?

I mean condi duration is bad…

Skill is bugged as well and only gives 3s of the effect. Anet fix pls.
