Does anyone else wish the Greatsword was a condi weapon?

Such a missed opportunity, with this skin in the game: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Cobalt

I really I could ignite that sword in combat, burn my foes to death with it.

But it's a power weapon. Meh.

While I'm fine with GS being a power weapon, I do wish at least one of the core weapons was condi-oriented. Maybe it's time for a scepter rework.

It's fine on condi firebrand right now, the multi-hits on whirling wrath proc burning but you need a fire field.

Yeah, for a class with so much burning baked in, it's weird how it took an expansion's elite specialization to get the option of having a set of condi weapons.

I would not want Greatsword to be condition-based, I like it the way it is just fine.

Guardians (even power-based ones) already trigger more than sufficient amounts of burning,

it really doesn't need any more of that.

 

I'd like to have the healing back on its weapon trait though.
