Guild Wars 2

I read the stuff on metabattle, but was wondering if there is something around like a Mallyx pvp guide, like written or a movie guide or something like that?

I understand some combos like enchanted daggers + embrace the darkness + UA.

How to deal your condi dmg well I find a bit more complex
Mainly energy manage wise.

In general:
Like a few of you are running towards a few enemies near a capture point.
How do you want to open dmg wise?
Get into combat to make your energy start to collect and start firing them Banish enchantments to hit many targets with?

Like what combos do you want to make with your mace and axe attacks and when?
Manifest toxin, temporal rift, searing fissure echoing corruption? (+ a dodge to get stab to prevent your combo from being interrupted).
Something like that?

Do you want to combine searing fissure with diabolic inferno or not necessarily?

Unyielding anguish. Nice for aoe blind with echoing corruption, but also very costly energy wise. I am not fully certain when there is a good moment for unyielding anguish.

I am kinda hoping to get a few pointers through this thread.

Ya experiencing difficulty cause you think like a power spec with certain burst combo’s and set ups to land hard hitting skills.

Thats not how ya play Mallyx rev, as a general rule of thumb if ya landing skills resulting in many different conditions ticking without them getting cleansed while staying alive you deal enuff damage. Problem is ya prolly landing high energy skills before opponents used their cleanses.

So use shiro /low energy weapon skills in mallyx/ auto attacks without getting a high profile. Then when cleanses are wasted bring the condi bomb. Which is something like UA, fire field, enchantment and demon form.

Except for sigil swaps and energy/stance management there is no trick or guide.

It’s a little harder to use now with all the necro boon rip. Basically you kinda have to feel the situation and respond accordingly. Condi heavy fight? Use pain absorb + facet of nature to maintain resistance. Aren’t being targeted? Build energy than focus a target down with 5 banishes and swap then UA or mace 2+3 → sword 2 then jade winds if youre still not pressured.

Thanks for the pointers.
I am getting the hang of it a lot more now.
Managing my protection buff well also made a lot of difference (easier with someone around who can provide it to you, which means you can use your own ones better).

I roll with Rune of the Herald and Bolster fortifications.
Ill use Enchanted daggers at the start of the fight to get the protection up and move to Mallyx to build energy and slowly heal the dmg I take with the daggers.
This way I have protection up and still access to Naturalistic Resonance to boost my resistance (which I wouldnt have for 25 sec if I opened with Natu Resonance for protection. Can also just pop one with nature at start if there are no condi enemies though instead of enchanted daggers protection.).

Than ready to bring the hurt with the banishes and cover condi and pop Mallyx heal for a new protection.
Than a swap to Shiro for replishment of energy and to hurt with some mace and axe attacks.

Does this sound like some good strategies to find the right moments for in combat?

Fun build Mallyx condi. I like confusion and torment conditions especially.
The build has quite some depth too which is nice.
Using your energy to go heavy on the Mallyx elite I find cool too.
