Guild Wars 2

I decided to give grenth a try.
Does the chill duration also work on the chill when I get struck / swap weapon or use a heal?

hi guys,

i kind of fell in love with those runes in pvp.
for wvw i am playing pretty standard 30/10/0/20/10 (nades/bombs).
atm i am using perplexity, but i wonder why no1 (or only few ppl) is using balthazar runes?!

i think of going perplexity for solo and balthazar for grp play.
your thoughts?

at the moment i am struggling to optimize my equipment regarding bleed duration
currently im running for bleed duration: 40%food+20%traits+45%runes+10%sigil —> 115% bleed duration
based on 5 seconds of the bleed on cit this should result in 11 seconds (10,75 rounded up)
tests showed only 9 seconds??? reducing the -bleed duration from 115 to 70% showed no change…
anybody can confirm or correct this?

i would like to refresh my question about the bleed duration…
my current bleed duration: 40%food+20%traits+45%runes+10%sigil —> 115% bleed duration
based on 5 seconds of the bleed on cit this should result in 11 seconds (10,75 rounded up)

this build seriously misses any condition removal!
if you can ensure that you only fight the guards of the camp it might work.
otherwise…

edit: i do not count your sigil of generosity as this is random

Ok here we go, 20-20-30 spvp with bleeding, clone spammer and s/p + scepter/t. So far Im happy, seen 17 stacks of bleed at bets so far, could prob be higer but ppl tend to die alot so hard stack more.

So far I must say deuling is not only usable for condi builds, its a CORE tree to dig into nomatter if you go staff or not. The clones and phantasm bleed applying is one of the best dmg sources, with staff iven better. For PvP to be able to spam clones and saty in stealth while things die around you is pure love.

using the same spec. except that I prefer combining scepter / pistol and sword / torch.

a couple of questions…
do u use duelist’s discipline or deceptive evasion? I dont like the thought of an increased cooldown on iduelist and mbullet
picking staff looks nice (and makes the choice easier for me w/o pistol), but if your opponent is smart enough he will run away.
what runes do u use? I chose 2x centaur 2x krait 2x afflicted. is there a cap with +%duration? I tought I read something like 100% would be cap…

thank you in advance!
