so not big of a change but i notice some ppl dont use it as i do so i post it here

the build:
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vlAQNApemnXNmNSqJzJR/kNlsgyoS4Q5UJYrMskFZlxe6rDXNgEeYdjPOB-TpxHQBeY/BAcEAU2hAQelBS4DAYgnAAA

retribution:

Planar Protection – when you using healing skill it will proc a dome around you for 4 sec which is a dark field which can be blast for aoe blind, or whirl for leech. you got mace and staff with skill which blast. also it blocks projectiles which enable you to build nrg for protective solace if needed. also it proc weakness for 4 sec around you. my only wish it could be 8 sec duration.

Retaliatory Evasion – retaliation is good to buff you dmg.

Eye for an Eye – i dont like as enemy still AA me doing dmg. i already got protection so no need. thief burst is to cc you and AA you to death….

Dwarven Battle Training – also good choice to enhance the duration of weakness

Steadfast Rejuvenation – good if the enemy team dont have much condi pressure. it buff you hps.

Blind rotations:

ventari will proc blind and dome.
blast the dome with mace 3 or staff 4 to aoe blind.
staff 3 blind
Disarming Riposte trait will blind
rune of the flock will blind every 10 sec.

almost any melee class will hate you.

block projectile rotation:
staff 3 block for 2 sec – cd 15 sec
using healing skill for the dome 4 sec – 20 sec cd
protective solace – for 8 sec
shield 5 block – 3 sec
staff 3 block again for 2 sec – cd 15 sec

total projectile blocking duration 19 sec. put dodge to buy more cd time and you can build nrg and start over.

condition management:

staff 4 cleanse 2
protective solace with blast will cleanse another 1
2 sigil cleanse 1 each. one with swap and other with attack.
purifying essence – cleanse 3
soothing stone – cleanse 3

try to build nrg as much as you can versus condi class

the combo is (try to start above 60 nrg)
protective solace ->mace -> swap -> staff 4 ->purifying essence -> energy explosion
its 11 condition (2 from sigil) and 1 for every 10 nrg you had while using EE.
switch to jallis and use heal skill for another 3 cleanse

the combo used versus condition burst from necro mainly. or attacked by two condi class.
condi rev is easy to handle.
warrior is easy to handle mostly due to blind
condi mesmer is ok if you dodge the burst
condi dd thief can be tricky if you trying to protect the cap point.
condi engi use block mainly.
condi ranger is easy with block blind.

stomp and res are easy due to stability, cc, and tablet can be used during the action. to blind to heal or to kb.

hope you like it as i find it much better than dragon

I prefer sword over mace for extra evade and magi amulet since you wont do any dmg extra survivebility and healing is better imo also i tried jalis but it feels clunky and need some more love…..like energy cost reduced maybe on ultilities

magi gives just a little about 100-300 healing per skill. with 2200 power i can put some pressure and sometime i can kill or get target to low health. this is give me the change to play aggressive while regain nrg. if you play passive you will drain your nrg soon.
the evade from sword is nice and enable you to teleport some times. but i prefer the mace due to its poison mainly and torment (ppl see conditions and freekout to cleanse) and blast finisher.

i use jallis at the start of the fight on point stability (and weakness) rotgd for dmg reduction and switch to ventari. this give my team the starting uper hand.

dragon just give 5 might and perma swiftness so you wont support as much as jallis does. the healing skill ppl know how to work around it. most classes already have fury. although some fight dragon will act better.
