Default Purge Signet Question

If I have a bunch of hexes and conditions on me and only 10 energy or so and use purge signet, are all the conditions and hexes removed or only 1 condition?

every single on of them, even if you have no energy at al, so good to mix with skills like Holy Wrath. who needs energy managment?

You can go negative in energy and it won't show up.

If you take a lot of hexes and conditions off you may be waiting a bit before you get any energy back.

this is really ONLY used by adrenaline warriors that don't need energy. don't know how holy wrath works b/c if you hit 0 e and you go below your maintained enchantments drops.

im pretty sure you *dont* go to negative energy... if i have 20 energy and i use purge signet to remove 5 hexes, im at 0 energy. the only time ive seen people at 'negative' energy is when you switch foci/staff's. i think.

I use a warrior/mo and run Succor and bond on our fragile monk and I know that even when my enchantments are stripped it takes me a long while to get energy back. I'm almost certain that with succor you go below zero.

You don't lose your maintained enchantments for going below zero for sure, like I said I've run this in tests a lot.

You only lose your maintained enchantments if you lose the pips, like when someone casts Malaise on you. Dang Necros.

You wont go below 0 with holy wrath and purge signet, I tested it with blessed signet, always got 3x4 from the maintained enchantments back.

actually if one person strips say only 1 of your succors, then it would take you 30 seconds to regain 10 energy (with 1 pip), which is a long time. so tbh i dont think negative energy exists in the game, except as a way to prevent people from abusing focus item swapping

Instead of punishing only elementalist skills with exhaustion, they should institute exhaustion for every instance of below zero energy in an equal amount to the total past zero achieved. There are too many instances where people can sit at zero or lower and still operate at near full capacity due to swapping and some sustained enchantments or blessed sig.
