Fragility+Mark of Rodgort+Fire Storm - Guild Wars Forums

Has anyone tried this? (instead of conjure flame)

Fragility:
For 8-18 seconds, target foe takes 5-28 damage each time that foe suffers or recovers from a new "Condition"
Hex - 15 energy - 1 cast - 15 recharge

Mark of Rodgort:
For 8-18 seconds, whenever target foe is struck for fire damage, that foe is set on fire for 1-3 seconds.
Hex - 25 energy - 2 cast - 20 recharge

Fire Storm
For 10 seconds, the area around target foe is bombarded with a rain of fire that strikes for 5-24 fire damage each second.
Spell - 15 energy - 4 cast - 30 recharge

I read somewhere that Fragility will not trigger if the target already have the condition you are giving.

But in this case, everything "would" or "should" be happening at the same moment.

But I guess that the real order depends on how events are managed:

1) Burning end, Fire Storm hits, Burning starts ---> fragility would trigger twice

2) Fire Storm hits, Burning's(never end) counter resets --> fragility would never trigger

3) fragility triggers once every second because events are managed in an odd way or because in this case or in any case fragility is triggered when Fire Storm resets the burning.

My guess is on number 2 because the other possibilities would just be too powerfull

so? anyone tried? or is there something wrong with this way of seeing the whole thing?

Fragility is trigged both when they get caught on fire and when they are... er... extinguished.

Well fragility + mark of rodgart combos get posted fairly often none of the ones I have seen are actually that great the damage in the end isn't worth the energy,setup time or skill slots required to pull off this kind of build.

To comment on your exact combo a major problem with using it in pvp is that noone sits in a firestorm. Along with that i believe condition timers are refreshed every time so if you hit them with fire before it ends it wont trigger fragility.I know this is true of other conditions i tried an axe/fragility combo just this last BWE. I assume it would work ok in PvE but with 3 skill slots 55 energy and in 7 seconds cast setup time you could do something better. The long recast times will hurt your build too.
