Major Skills/Profession Balance Update Preview

[reapex]

Among these changes are new duration caps for each boon and condition, a rework of the retaliation and resistance boons, and a reversal to the bonus-damage state of the torment condition. Torment will now deal bonus damage to targets that are standing still instead of to moving targets. Since we’re reducing the overall effect of resistance, we’re also reevaluating and increasing durations in some skills where it is applied. The Exposed effect that is placed on many boss enemies when their defiance bar is broken has been adjusted. It now increases power damage taken by 30% and condition damage taken by 100%.
