Guild Wars 2

What I mean is look at endure pain, it is a proper stance it cannot be cleanse and or corrupted as it is not a boon, it is a stance.

on the other side of the spectrum we have balanced stance which is just a boon, which is corruptible and or removable.

Shouldn’t balance stance also be a true stance and not some cheap corruptible boon ?
something akin to earth elementals unshakable effect

Discuss.

While I don’t see the need for converting it into a “true stance” I have to agree with you. Why is it not? We have Zerker Stance, Endure Pain and Frenzy and they are all uncleanable/their own icons. Balanced stance is more like a shout.

Never thought of it that way actually, you do have a point.

apparently it did used to be a ‘true stance’ but got changed with changes to stability.
