I don’t use mallyx, but it is possible. I’ve gotten to rank 18 with a similar build.

It’s possible!
Some feedback for this ?

75 free energy every 10 seconds when in ventari (on heal rune + Enduring Recovery), undispellable damage reduction, weakness application, free heal on hit and little stability from Retribution, boon stealing via staff/interrupt-torment

It lack blocks but you’ll have enough endurance and healing to sustain fights

I looked at the traits especially and I’m confused as to why herald?
You lose so much not taking invocation.

I fiddled about with it and did what I could to hopefully improve on it… conditions hurt rev so kitten ed much, so I figured why not try and play with them a bit?

This is what I’ve slopped together based on the original idea (which I quite like, by the way.)

What a circus. Complete with clowns and monkeys that do tricks.

Since there are no apothecary stats in pvp, its not optimal

lol invocation with sage is useless. herald is probably your best bet because spamming the low cd ventari heal gives you a lot of prot uptime which is necessary for surviving power burst builds. every trait in herald is solid.

I tried running Sage’s Mallyx in the past. Unfortunately the heal deficit from Sage’s compared to Mender or Magi is too great for it to work. I find it odd how Anet didn’t bump the base heal from Natural Harmony but instead bumped the coefficient. It’s like they didn’t want people to use amulets without healing power.

Although it could work if you opt for complete outgoing heals.

Lets say its a mesmer power burst. Mesmer burst last I bothered to calculated it with pvp amulets spiked up to 50k dps. And that’s a sloppy rotation as I am a puppying trash power mesmer.
But lets do some equally sloppy math; 50,000 × .66 (since a third is taken off from prot) and you get 33,000.

Hm. That’s pretty good. about 16k damage is negated. That’s an entire health bar! So lets do some more math.
With Sage amulet revenant has about 21k hp
21,000 – 33,000 = -12,000
So you survive as a skeleton to fight in the next war. That’s not too bad.

Or you could block with sword 4, staff 3, evade with staff 5, or just use your regular old evasion and take almost no to absolutely no damage depending on your timing.

This is an utterly extreme situation, but please I hope you see the point.
Even with 100% protection uptime, you just get obliterated anyhow. Prot is better for extended fights with power builds.. and without invocation you have literally no stunbreak. So power shatter mes will laugh EVEN HARDER at you.

I don’t know where your math is coming from, maybe the mists.

invocation is not a good choice for bunker. your job isn’t to do dps.

if anything drop corruption for retribution and grab stab gm on herald, but at that point you might as well go with bunker meta.
