I should have checked this long ago, but never bothered to.
Does the +20% longer enchantments mod really only infulence enchantments ?
Or does it influence hexes as well ?
If it doesn't I want a +20% longer hexes mod !
+20% longer hexes ?

of course it doesnt. 20% longer hexes would be imba.
Emik
It does bring to attention that there aren't 20% hex wrappings/hafts/etc...
Would be a nice addition for all the hex lovers out there

Mesmers have mantra of persistence though, so that's something.
Emik
Yes but that only covers 1 specific magic so all the others are left in the cold.
It WOULD be a nice addition although not likely to happen

@ Brute:
If 20% longer hexes over overpowered, dosnt that mean that 20% longer enchants are over powered? Dosnt that, fllowing the same line of logic, mean that every upgrade for anything is overpowered?

@Sereng Amaranth:
Maybe he means the International Mountain Bicycling Association? Either that, or someone couldn't be bothered to type out imbalanced. See:http://www.guildwarsguru.com/content...0.php#Language
I don't think we need a 20% longer hex mod; don't be silly. If Anet made a 20% longer hex duration, then every class should also be able to craft Lieutenant Helms. Hex durations are balanced, already, and should only be increased by using a skill slot, not equipment.

theres mantras for mesmer that makes some hexes last longer

and how is having 20% enchantmetns balanced?
I mean there are spells in the monk line that can make enchatments last even longer. I can get over 50% longer enchantments but that's not broken at all...*cough* 55 *cough*.

the thing is, most ench are passive... if your enemy choose not to attack you, the full power of ench usually are not to its maximum efficiency
for eg, when's the last time you see a frenzy warrior keep on hitting a monk encht with Shield of Judgement?!
on the other hand, hexes are active... which means you are screwed even if you choose to not attack the designated character, things like conjure phantasm makes you degen if you do nothing, and things like SS which makes you take damage every time you take action

yeah most enchants are passive or defensive/healing, most (all?) hexes are offensive........imagine 20% longer Life Transfer + 20% longer Life Siphon + cover hex = pwnt (and imbalanced)
derrtyboy69
Im sure they have tested it with 20% longer hexes, and ahve found it overpowered, or they would have implemented it.
Phoenix Arrows
At most it would be 10% longer, as 20% is way too long. 45 second Faintheardedness...anyways...passive and active thing.
jrk247
It would be nice, but as others have already said it would be imbalanced.

20% Longer Life Transfer
I wouldnt like to just stand there and take it
Manic Smile
so implement more options:
anti hexes; i.e. if hex is cased on target then caster takes x dmg and hex fails, spell lasts for x seconds(isn't there something like this?)
or
target hex that does dot is reversed instead for 2x the duration
more hex removal
hex transfers ala plague touch
there are options...

That's a pretty common term, or atleast in Warcraft 3 Custom map called DOTA. I keep seeing it all the time here.

2) 20% Longer LT is about ~3 seconds longer, not a huge buff.

And I fail to see how a 20% longer life transfer is overpowered. a 12 second life transfer will be removed, a 14 scond life transfer will also be removed.
Dont say cover hexes because the time we all carried one hex removal has been over for a long time now.
I actually like the idea. If anyone can give me a valid argument with an example why such a mod would be overpowered, I'll accept it but for now I support the idea.
Trouveur
It is more easy to delete an hexe than an enchantment, so I don't see why +20% hexe would be overpowered.
And by the way some items have already +20% longer for a specific condition.

hex breaker has dmg?
I'm looking for offensive responses, something that makes hexes more of a gamble to use.
