So after painfully gearing my self in rabid gear as a conditionmancer I realized something….

I do no dmg to structure. And many dungeon do require killing structure things, such as burrow in ac and cof, icicle boss in ice fractal, and last boss of dredge fractal(eventhough not a structure but only direct dmg is powered by lava).

So how should I go about fixing it? Carry another set of power gear? Or just go power build directly?

Since you are a conditionmancer i understand you are using scepter + dagger and a staff for your off set. When facing a structure you can switch to staff and spam 1 + have a golem as your utility. The golem charge does immense structural damage plus it’s autoattack, alongside your staff 1 spam it should do the job.

Try switching to DS and spam your 1/4, since you’ll have 20% more crit chance when going into DS for a few seconds. This could potentially up your Damage output.
A Power/COndition Build isn’t bad either, because the condition duration extra also increases your condition damage indirectly ba great deal!
I went Carrion for Spite/Curses build.

You cant crit on objects.

But golem seems best option if you can get it to attack.

Volunteer to be the lava-pouring guy, probably.

Or in AC there’s at least room for people to protect NPCs/objects from gravelings while the rest kill burrows, if they can’t kill the burrow themselves. The NPC is straightforward enough, and with those two… device things… that you’ve got to keep alive while they do whatever it is they do, I’ve noticed the gravelings that attack them don’t care much about them. Once when I was there as a warrior and the only melee class in that group(!) it was basically decided ‘everyone follow that guy →’ was our strategy for killing the burrows as they appeared, but our overall damage output wasn’t huge (this was a pretty weird group lol) so from one burrow to the next I’d just slap the gravelings attacking the devices upside the head and they’d follow me and get killed in AoE somewhere along the way.

Some of these are “okay” answers, but bottom line is your damage is going to be bad against structures with scept/dagger:staff period. It works better if you have 30 in spite.

DS 1 down to 50% life force then staff spam back up to 100% LF and repeat is your best bet. Minions do good against stuctures too if you can use them without them getting scrapped by AOE (not so useful on ice fractal).

What I did for a long time was swap in Axe for the sceptor and swap to it for axe 2, DS down to 50%, axe 2, staff, repeat.

Works good with 30 in spite for the extra power, but obviously you don’t do any condition damage comparable to scept.

i use rabid gear and conditions as well.My Best advice is to use flesh golem when you can. But n areas where golem will b killed instantly pop blood is power for might stacks wenever you can. Use it right before entering lich form and death shroud to boost for ok damage. Then rebuild your life force up again with staff auto, repeat..blah, blah blah

As a wells conditionmancer in full rabid ijust cast well of suffering and well of coruption on any and all yellow objects (including the nightmare tree boss in TA) and take them down relatively fast.
