Guild Wars 2

So yesterday I got my hp to unlock king of fires and my burn damage on bow had no change in dmg numbers. Haven’t really tested to see if its visual on the skill not working and damage increased or not.

Any one else noticed or is it me.

I also now understand the lackluster for Berserker spec. It is underwhelming. When compared to other classes I have gotten threw HoT. I think the Berserker mode would of been better as 100% damage increase while taking 50% more damage while in zerk mode or something.

Try reading skill descriptions, I heard it helps. King of Fires doesn’t increase Burning damage.

when you increase duration it usualy shows the damage go up maybe im wrong

maybe because it was balanced around this: http://www.twitch.tv/chevsya/v/24483076

The numbers will only go up if you’re able to stack more burns because they last longer.

For example, suppose you were able to put out 5 burns for 6s, on a 6s cooldown, but when you took KoF your burns now lasted for 8s. After 6s, you’d be able to apply another 5 burns onto your first 5, which would double the damage per tick from second 6 to second 8.

Regardless of whether you’re able to stack or not, you should see more damage ticks in your combat log, and KoF should indeed be increasing your burn output by 33% by way of duration.

If you want to test it, apply a burn to one of the practice golems in the pvp area with KoF traited and then do it again without it traited. Count the number of times burns are registered in your combat log for each application.

One note, be careful that your gear/traits/etc don’t have you exceeding +100% burn duration (including burn specific extenders and general condi extenders). You can’t exceed +100% duration, so anything past that is wasted.
