Guild Wars 2

Hey,

have some succes with Condi Rev (standard build). Generally I know all combos and how each skill works and when to use it, but still, would like to see opinions of some more exprienced Revs.

First, how often do you use Embrace the Darkness except to proc Inferno ?

Personally I’m using it quite often, but I’m unsure if it’s the best energy distribution. If I’m not getting focused in bigger fight I’ll just turn it on for Torment stacks. One can argue that Banish will do more dmg, but unless you land it throu other targets it’s single target juke which is easily dodgeable. Often when there is downed body which I do not intentd to stomp, or if I see thief is going to jump one me (probably with venom or using steal) I turn it on. Also I use it rarely to proc Enchanted Daggers.

How often do you use unyelding Anguish except of map traveling ?

I use it maybe as dmg source on enemies, when i want aoe blind from mace3, sometimes if they dodge axe4, but in bigger team fights I tend to aim it on edge of fight/point, becouse jumping in the middle of everything tends to make me take more dmg than it’s worth.

Do you stomp or rather cleave?

I mostly cleave, unless it’s 1v1 or 2v2 (I never stomp mesmer, thief or ele). Problem is in most scenario’s enemies are able to res throu cleave, I guess it’s just how it works and i have to accept it, nonetheless what’s your opinion?

Do you rather aa with mace or sword?

I think mace deals overall more dmg, but most of it comes from Torment, so it can be cleansed.

Soothing Bastion or Enchanced Bulwark ? How much does this extra stab stack matters?

My first post on gw2 forum, so go easy one me

I know most of my questions depend on situation around, nonetheless would appreaciate any form of advice.

For map traveling, Jallis thunder road into mace 3 is way better. Enhanced Bulwark 100% of the time, bastion is pretty bad. Considering you got no stun breakers in Malyx…the extra stab is pretty big.

I use in mid fight often

I use it maybe as dmg source on enemies, when i want aoe blind from mace3, sometimes if they dodge axe4, but in bigger team fights I tend to aim it on edge of fight/point, becouse jumping in the middle of everything tends to make me take more dmg than it’s worth.

If you have enhanced bulwark you should stomp since its pretty much guaranteed. Cleaving is better for power rev due to the insance Auto Attack damage. However you can you use Shiro quickness and sword auto to do decent cleave

I mostly cleave, unless it’s 1v1 or 2v2 (I never stomp mesmer, thief or ele). Problem is in most scenario’s enemies are able to res throu cleave, I guess it’s just how it works and i have to accept it, nonetheless what’s your opinion?

Sword is better for damage BUT mace has poison on Auto so that useful especially on downed players when enemy is trying to rez (if you want to cleave)

I think mace deals overall more dmg, but most of it comes from Torment, so it can be cleansed.

Enhanced Bulwark ALWAYS The extra stab stack guarantees a safe stomp
