Energy degen and purge signet question. - Guild Wars Forums

So if you cast like 7 lifebonds and have -3 energy regeneration do the lifebonds stop working when you run out of energy or do they hold you at 0 and keep working. I believe the latter is true I just wanted confirmation.

Also another question does purge signet still remove all hex's and condition even if you have 0 energy?

Does signet of devotion get the healing bonus from divine favor?

If you have 7 Life Bonds for -3 energy regeneration (starting from a Monk's natural 4) what happens when you run out of energy is that you'll lose the most recent 3 Life Bonds. You'll have 4 Life Bonds left, 0 energy, and 0 regeneration. You can't sustain negative regeneration and maintained skills unless you have something to add to your energy, when you hit bottom you'll lose all maintained enchantments that take you below 0 regeneration. But you won't lose any past that, so the first four Life Bonds will remain and you'll get a message something "Enchantment ended because you can't maintain it." Just as you'll get a message when a teammate with a maintained enchantment wanders too far out of range.

To the best of my knowledge, yes. I haven't tried it recently, though, so maybe someone can see over the weekend if it works or not.

No, it doesn't. Only Monk spells are affected by Divine Favor. Devosig is a signet and not a spell so you don't get any bonus healing. You don't get any healing from using Purge Signet or Blessed Signet either, for that matter.

1) if you are a monk (4 pips regen) and you cast 5 enchantments, you will have 1 pip degen until you reach 0. Then you will lost the last enchantment you casted and reamin at 0 energy with 0 regen.

2)Purge Signet will remove all Hexes and Conditions from you, regardless of how much energy you have. When they are removed, you will lose 10 energy for each one, but if you have 30 energy and 6 hexes, you still only lose 30 energy and all 6 are removed.

3) No. Signet of Devotion is considered a Signet and not a spell. Only Monk Spells gain the bonus from Divine Favor.

Edit: Saus beat me.
