Hey there fellow GW 2 fans,

I have recently started playing a charr ranger. I am going to specialise in being a support like character.

One of the traits that attracts my attention is the “concentration training” mayor trait. This trait should increase the duration of the boons that are applied by pets (e.g. furious screech on the moa bird). I have read that it should increase the boon duration by about 50% (on wiki). So when i normally use furious screech with my moa bird, the fury boon would last around 15 secs. With the trait equiped it should last 30 secs, which sounds pretty awesome to me.

Unfortunately it only last 15 secs. So………..Could this please be fixed? For I am convinced that this bug is holding many rangers back to becoming a support ranger (except for the ones that are satisfied with taking spirits, which I am not).

I couldnt find a thread about this bug so I started one myself. I hope Arenanet will fix this (and I am sure they will cause they rock. Period. Amen.)

Sincerely,

The Freaker

PS: forgive my ocassional use of incorrect English, this is caused by the fact that I am Dutch. Hope you guys can live with that

Well, for one, your math is off a bit. If the boon is supposed to last 15 seconds on its own (without concentration training), then with a 50% increase, it should last for 22.5 seconds (15 seconds + (15 * .50))

I would test it again, if it’s still only lasting for 15 seconds, then it’s not working as intended.

Heck you are right, I misinterpreted 50% as 100%. Thanks for the heads up I did do some more testing and it (still) isnt working. In other words: the fury boon still lasts 15 secs instead of the 22.5 secs. I hope some dev will look into this

Or the bugs that are holding the archer rangers back.
Or the bugs that are holding the melee rangers back.
Or the bugs that are holding the pet rangers back.
