taking incendiary powder gives 5,25s burning. with grenadier trait there is a condition duration increase of 30% whicht should lead to another tick of burning.

in fact, this doesnt happen. maybe a bug since dec10 patch?

even with full condi duration runes + sigil of smoldering it only ticks for the 5,25s (so 5 burning ticks) what should be at least 7s (7ticks)

did anybody experienced the same?
dunno but i believe it worked before patch…

If I’m understanding you correctly, you’re looking at the already condition duration modified tool-tips of Incendiary and Shrapnel. You should examine the traits before you invest the points into Explosives and modify the durations.

The base burn duration on Incendiary Powder is 4 seconds. Adding 30% condition duration from the Explosives traitline yields a 5 1/4 second burn.

The base bleed duration on Shrapnel (and Shrapnel Grenade) is 12 seconds. Adding 30% condition duration from Explosives makes it a 15 1/2 second bleed.

Hope this clears things up.
