I've tried the Sigil of Torment with my build and found it really lackluster, since you'll get two stacks of it for a second MAX. You'd be better off with any number of sigils.
Sigil of Torment just gives another condition to put on someone. A lot of condition clears only remove one condition, it is nice to take my chances and stack more conditions like torment to be cleared before my burn if possible.
and to quote since you seem to had trouble finding it before, "Condition duration cannot be increased beyond 100%." Third sentence from the end of the main paragraph.
Good luck.
