According to the wiki Berserker Stance granting immunity to conditions for its duration is a bug. So why are we abusing bugs fellas?

Berserker’s Stance should reduce any condition by its default duration.
So its counter should be condition duration bonus.
(Example: if a condition basic duration is 10s but you got it with 50% condition duration bonus, your Berserker’s Stance will remove 10s but you’ll still get hit by 5s).
That is how it was supposed to work. But since ArenaNet messed up, it simply blocks everything.
No one is abusing it, since the only way to “not abuse” is to not use it at all. Which seems ridiculous to say to players “do not use that skill! it’s bugged but we will fix it in a month or two! since then: don’t use it!”.

Hard to really “abuse” it. It’s a bit of a binary skill; it’s either active or not. You can’t really do anything else with it. In other words, I am unaware of any mechanism that, for example, allows you to gain the buff but the skill not go on cool down. Should people refuse to use any bugged skill?

Is it bugged? I believe so but that is based on my reading of the tooltip. It should reduce condition duration by no more than the unmodified condition duration. A 10 second condition is 0 if the applier has 0 condition duration bonuses. If the applier has 40% (say from food), condition will have 4 seconds of duration.

I do know it has been reported. So either:
1) Anet intended it to be a flat condition immunity and the tooltip is poorly worded
2) Anet hasn’t figured out yet it is bugged
3) Anet knows it is bugged but it isn’t high priority to fix
4) Anet knows it’s bugged but is leaving it for now to help break the condition meta
5) Anet purposely bugged it to help break the condition meta
