Is it only the copy that goes through evades?

The copy got removed after BWE2. The skill now simply pulses torment. The pulstating pestilence GM is supposed to still copy conditions, but its bugged to be the same as the new embrace the darkness and is a laughable pulse of torment, unless they bothered to fix it, which I havent heard that they did.

I haven’t heard of anything going through evades from mallyx’s set, just some unblockable skills, but I’ll test some things around to be sure.

I’m more concerned with the high sustain that comes with that type of damage. High damage is fine by me as long as it’s high risk. Unfortunately, Revs get both.

Say hi to condi reapers then.

Lol yeah, they do a kitten ton of damage too, tempests seem to be in the same boat however it’s either pretty much un-killable with some damage or still hard to kill with good burst.
I thought these Elite specs were just supposed to change the way a class played not just make it stronger….

It’d be great if you clarified what is going through dodges.

I think you misspelled scrapper as tempest.

They’re both bunker af, with too high of damage

A good tempest is harder to kill than old D/D.

Yes but unfortunately the old D/D is 1. Not bunker 2. Melts within seconds in this meta

Say hi to 98% of all the specializations.

Is stating false percentages really fun for you? 7/9 is just under 78%.

i dunno if there’s anything that actually goes through evades but Herald is still probably the most overpowered elite spec out there by design, so regardless of being bugged or not Herald is going to need to see tuning.

^ We are not discussing Herald here, son. Go cry somewhere else.

On topic: Embrace The Darkness (Mallyx Elite) functions like miasma/environmental effects – it doesn’t strike you with any damaging hit that further applies condition, it just simply pulses condition in an area.

Since there’s nothing to block or evade, you’re just basically standing in “poisoned area” while close to Rev upkeeping EtD.

Not like this Elite is that worth of upkeep most of the time – it’s used to trigger Diabolic Inferno trait. Because of above fact, it has it’s very own niche against Revenants, Dragonhunters etc. which rely on active defenses.

They could maybe give it Unblockable skill fact, since it might not be obvious to some people, but I can’t see a reason for changing it. At the end of the day, it just pulses single stack of Torment for a hefty cost.
