When you use Purge 1, does it

purge the effects you HAD when you used it (but 5 secs later)

or

does it purge any effects you have 5 secs after you use it (incl
any new effects you receive between when you click it and when
it activates)

?


I thought it was the 2nd, but had some strange behaviour over
the w/e

Can't give u a defo answer but i guess it remembers what effects u had when u pressed it.
And didn't it have a 3 sec delay?

It purges all the effects you have 5 sec later. Fucking annoying tbh, in some respects better than purge 2....u stun target, target purges, u mez target, purge hits and clears both effects. Just have to learn the hard way who has purge what lvl (tho can guess eg stealth will have purge 2 or 3, casters mostly likely purge 1 unless they solo, etc).

Yeah - I thought it was this also, but this w/e I purged (1) and 5 secs later came out of mezz only to find half the effects still there. This happened more than once, so I am pretty sure that they weren't all re-cast the very moment I came out of mezz.

very odd, don't recall any changes to purge in recent patches...

it purges affects u have after the fifth second


so you could purge if there was an fg inc and if they landed mezz on the 4th second it would be gone after 1second(the mezz)

I can just imagine the abuse directed towards your mezzer when they actually win mezz in this scenario!

Yes you can! I do it all the time on my skald... Purge 1 > Purge 2 for me

I anticipate when I'm getting incoming CC or a debuff/dot that I want to purge so I hit purge on beforehand so it purges everything, and if I don't get any negative effects during those 5 seconds purge is up again anyway as it wasn't used then. Also when I'm in a zergy fight I know when I'm mezzed someone will stun me when I use purge, 5 secs later it purges stun/root also.

When using Purge1 you don't actually get that message before those 5 secs have passed, and if you have a negative effect by then it will be purged. ;)
