Um i was wondering how the 20% longer enchantment works, if i had a weapon (set1) equipped with 20% longer enchantment mod on it, then i cast an enchant on myself which last 60sec(+20%)=72sec, but if i switch to another weapon without the 20% mod right after the buff, will the enchantment still last 72sec? lol i tried a timer on the enchantment, and it seems that the effect is cancled when i switch the weapon set, prob by around 6sec-8sec..??...

thanks for ur help

No the enchant will still last after swapping to another weapon set. The practice is very common. "Caster weapon" sets are used to add buffs then people swap to their actual weapon setup for the fight. Hope it helps.

Enchantment (and hex and condition) durations are set when you apply the effect, ie cast the spell. So if you cast with a 20% enchantment mod, it will last 20% longer, even if you switch weapons.

lol yes there probably was something wrong with your timing because the effect lasts after casting.

There's a valuable lesson learned there, especially for those having difficulty with their 55 builds.
