  • Conduit Surge: Added visual effects to help engineers identify their focused targets. Updated this skill so that Focused can only affect one target at a time. Successfully applying Focused now applies a Focusing effect to the engineer to help indicate time left on the focused target. Increased the burning stacks from 2 to 3 in PvE and from 1 to 2 in PvP and WvW. Reduced the focused burning duration from 8 seconds to 6 seconds and the unfocused burning duration from 6 seconds to 4 seconds in PvE only. Reduced the cooldown from 8 seconds to 6 seconds in PvP and WvW.
