Guild Wars 2

Hello, I’m confused with some Traits/Runes/Mechanics.

1. Cleansing Ire + Burst Mastery remove 2 or 3 conditions ?

2. Condition duration – please explain me condition duration reduction (on 20 seconds of bleeding and cripple)
Bowl of Lemongrass Poultry Soup -40% all
Superior Rune of Melandru -25% or (-10% and -15%) ? all
Dogged March -33% immobilize, chill, cripple

3. Unsuspecting Foe and Superior Rune of Melandru trigger only with stun ? – not with Daze,Fear,Knockdown,Launch,Knockback ?

same with Loaf of Saffron Bread/Bowl of Roasted Lotus Root ?

I found some answers but i trust more to your in-game experience.

Thanks for all answers !

1. 3 Conditions, it basically consumes all 3 bars then gives you 33% of what was consumed.

2. As far as bleed goes a 65% reduction would put it at 7 seconds. 20 seconds of cripple reduced by 98% is 0.4 seconds.

However condition duration increase directly counters reduction. Using as an example 20% condition duration in the cripple example, that would sit it at 78% total reduction for a 4.4 second cripple.

3. To the best of my knowledge the only ones that stun reduction touches are stuns and dazes (Dazes also get increased by stun duration increases so fair’s fair).

Edit – Cut down the explanation a little for clarity.

1, 3 ( @ full adren )

2, it does what it says on the tin. reduces the duration by whatever % you have. aka Maths

3, correct.

Thanks for answers.

2. Time for some math.
Wiki say – Condition duration cannot be increased beyond 100%.

So if some warrior use + 40% condition duration food + 2/6 Rune of the Mad King (+10%) + Deep Cuts trait +50% = 100% total. I can reduce it to only 35% bonus right ?

Technically yes, but that’s assuming that the warrior in your example stops there. The 100% cap is there only after the math is resolved.

If he has 120% condition duration he basically completely ignores your first 20% duration reduction.

I understand, thanks !
