Guild Wars 2

The warrior’s elite skill Rampage only last for 20 seconds regardless of how much boon duration you equip.

For example, if you equip +30% boon duration on tactics, the elite skill will show a 26 sec duration but will end prematurely at 20 sec.

So?
Rampage is not a boon. It’s a transformation. The transformation time is fixed, like any other skill duration. You see extended duration for the boon asociated to the transformation, stability, but it’s fixed to the transformation. So regardless of boons modifiers, it will go away on the time it has to.

I agree that the transformation is not a boon, but I think the boons bestowed by the transformation should be extended even after the transformation ends (or at least it should be looked into or commented on by a Dev). It is possible that it technically isn’t possible to extend these boons as they ARE generated by the transformation itself.

Considering the fact that there are transforms which were change so they matched that behavior instead of the other way around what would the dev say? “No we didn’t really intend for this to happen even though we made the changes and put them in the patch notes.”?

As Kisanth said, meditated decission. Wouldn’t make “logic” sense getting benefits from a transformation, when the transformation has finished, and they intentionally fixed it to make the game match with that.

The reason the boon is removed is because they don’t want someone popping the elite for 20+ seconds of stability then continuing with their normal skills by cancelling it immediately. It removes Stability when it ends for that reason.
