Guild Wars 2

So I took a look at the numbers, some of our skills have got a buff, others, not so much.

Now
Burning @ 1107 condi damage (Rabid Amulet) = 605

Then
Burning @ 1107 condi damage = 303

So, burning is almost exactly half as effective.

This means;

Throw Torch – No Change to damage amount.
Bonfire – Decent buff for total damage, nerf for burst. Better for PvP imo.
Flame Trap – Slight buff for total damage, nerf for burst.
Sun Spirit – Decent buff for total damage.
Fire Breath – 60% nerf.

Stackable burn is going to make Sun Spirit very obnoxious, methinks.

Stuff like the 2.5 second duration on Flame Trap annoy me. If the enemy doesn’t already have damaging conditions on him when he triggers the trap it’ll be the same as 2 second burning duration.

Burning is still only a 30% up-time, at best, from Sun Spirit.

But what about when four other players are also applying those burns?

Ah, yes, well that is not bad at all. Still, the spirit can be killed very easily, hopefully they have a big range.
