Guild Wars 2

If it is not known Mallyx as a legend was reworked before release, to let go of all the self- applied conditions. This is all well and good but the full rework was not even close to complete, the corruption trait line still has traits that are still beneficial to the old skill set much more than the current.

Replenishing Despair Incoming conditions heal you for a small amount.

Bolstered Anguish Increased damage for every condition currently on you.

Pulsating Pestilence Chance when struck to copy all conditions currently on you to nearby foes for a few seconds.

Imo corruption trait line is pretty lackluster in comparison to the other pages, but this is probably the biggest problem. The old mallyx relied on self applied conditions and then spreading them out and therefore these traits assisted in the overall play style. But now mallyx takes a much less unique play style and the reliance on conditons on one self in my opinion is barely used apart from pain absorption, which more often than not only gets the 2 or maybe 3 conditions max in most situations. I feel that these should be reworked to better match the current mallyx.

I made a thread on this pre-release:

Thanks – I should’ve checked before
