Q:

Does exposed weakness affect condition damage? (when enemy is afflicted with a condition you do 10% more damage)

if so, wouldn’t it be more “condition damage” to put 25 points into Deadly Arts and 15 in Trickery than to max Trickery?

With my build I go from 1889 Condition Damage to 1739 when I drop 15 points out of Trickery which is an 8% drop

but I then gain 10% damage when I put those points into Deadly Arts.

Please feel free to call me an idiot if I am missing something obvious =)

A:

No.
No percentage bonus affects condition damage, ever. Not vulnerability, not any trait. Only your level and condition damage change it. Might will improve it, but that’s because it raises your condition damage.

No none of the +% traits affect condition damage it only affects direct damage. You can get more damage if you put 25 in trick if thats what your going for? 1% per initiative with 15 initiative 15% more damge. I dont know what your running but DA is condition duration. +% traits never affect condi damage on any class.

Might and food buffs are it for condi damage.

Cool thank you for the quick replies. My build is currently 25 DA 30 Acro and 15 Trickery. Full Carrion gear. Trying to get the most condition damage I can for my poison/bleed build. I’m around 1750 ATM.
