Report from Lion’s Arch Condi stacking changes incoming (eventually) https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/game/hot/Increased-Bleeding-Stacks Jon Peters: “we know that the current stack cap creates problems for condition players who want to work together.

Hunter beat me to it! I think one of the main objectives with these changes was to get people moving into areas of the game people have forgotten about or avoided in the past. Specific tasks in specific areas instead of a la carte options that allow a lot of choice. There were a lot of varied opinions however, some people outright hating the change, many pleased by the streamlining, and me, I thought it was a waste of effort and that Arenanet could better spend their time on other projects that need work. But there’s no use crying over spilt dolyak milk, we’ve got new dailies. Have I been enjoying them? Actually, yes, I suppose so. Arenanet has moved the goal posts, reorganized my objectives, I’ve got busy work to do! But not just any busy work, this busy work is different busy work than the busy work I was doing before! It’s “new content” without any actual new content and they’ve bribed us with rewards to accept it. You get more achievement points, more laurels than previously, and certainly a wider variety of goods. Daily rewards are much better too.
