Heh. I made the full sinister set after the last beta and before they revealed how devastating Shiro was

Need opinions on sinister build

in Revenant

So I was trying to design a sinister Shiro/Mallyx build and could use some outside opinions. So far I have:

Upgrades:
Superior Sigils of Blight/Earth/Torment + Bursting
Superior Runes of Torment x6

Traits:
Devastation: Assassin’s Presence, Ferocious Strikes, Swift Termination
Corruption: Venom Enhancement, Spontaneous Destruction, Diabolic Inferno (for use w/ Jade Winds)
Invocation: Fierce Infusion, Incensed Response, Roiling Mists

This would give me about a 1500 condition damage bonus (from gear + runes), 45% critical bonus (from traits), and base 51% critical rate (from gear)/100% critical rate with fury (after legends swap or healing).

I feel like this build HAS to use mace/axe, but was considering sword/sword for the higher stacks of vulnerability and using sigils and traits to apply poison and torment on crits. Then again, maybe the whole thing would be better zerker-style.

Anyways, any suggestions on gear, updgrades, or traits would be greatly appreciated. And yeah, I’m pretty much spending this weekend testing out this weird set to see how viable it is. Early thanks!

Hounds and player's condition damage?

This was moreso for my own curiosity, but since Mistfire Wolf inherits its summoner’s condition damage and duration stats (at least to a degree), I was wondering if the Hounds did the same? Could they potentially do more condition damage between the two of them than Mistfire Wolf or is this the only reason Wolf may be used over Hounds? Early thanks for any help!

Revenants and Racial Skills

I was just wondering if ANet has made any kind of allusion to revenants being allowed to use racial skills? Wouldn’t solve all the revenant’s balancing issues, but might help. Early thanks for any help.
