1. Just tried Healing Spring for the first time and it seemed to do healing every second for 5 seconds, not every two seconds for 10 seconds. Also seemed to recharge in 10 seconds, not 20. Has it changed from it's listed specs?

2. Grabbed a Poisoner's Bow. When it says 'Increases Duration of Poison' how much is that by? In fact same could be said for Bleeding swords, or any 'increases xxx'.

In fact, is there anywhere that lists the AMOUNT certain conditions affect? Weakness says 'decreases damage' but doesn't say how much by. 5%? 50%? 95%? Poisoner's bow lengthens Poison duration for 1 second? 5 seconds? 20%? Why don't ANet give us this information in the first place??

1. You must count your seconds slowly. I just stepped outside Ascalon to test this, and it still heals every 2 seconds for 10 seconds, and recharges in 20 seconds.

2. The 'lengthens condition duration' mods are I believe all 33%. Weakness decreases attack damage by 66%.

They don't give that information because they want people to experiment and find things like this out for themselves.
