So the build relies on hammer symbol to proc PW, stacking might from empower for good burning damage and symbol damage. Good rolling heals, permanent vigor, permanent retaliation. Damages come from symbols,burning,retaliation,weapon swing.
Using staff for secondary weapon is a good choice. I’ve been running with staff alot lately, since you get 1 symbol, might stack/heal, CC.
You got it right, going cond build is a bad move. Yes, the PW seems to suggest we go condition build wholly, max cond dmg and duration, lol its not, its another way around..since burning scale so bad with condition damage, its a better choice to gain cond damage from might stacking..as for cond duration, PW from symbols already more than enough(at least in pve :P), there is no point stacking 20+ sec of burning to a target that live for maybe 5-7 sec once you touch them..

I think you’ll find that you’ll do better without condition damage gear. You’ll still have decent burn damage while having way, way better direct damage.

burning scale poorly with condition damage. I’m aiming for 500 dmg/sec, means 686 condition damage. Going 600 burning dmg/sec cost alot, 1086 condition. That 400 extra damage is better allocated to power, or whatever beneficial stat, maybe vit or toughness. We got only burning for condition, going all out cond build is not good atm.

Yes..hammer symbol work really well too..tested that but not included in that vid..I’ve test the 0,0,10,30,30 symbol build, more survival..0,0,30,10,30 for AH, only work well if alot allies near you. I’m using torch to demonstate Zealot’s Flame+Judge’s Intervention as opening strike, applying 10+ sec of burning to nearby foes. Cleansing Flame(torch) is a good skill to apply burning as it have 10 damage instances, but very situational, not every instance hit..
I’ve tried playing with mace for symbol, works wonder too. Symbols might be the real deal for Pyroclasm build. I’m trying to get full celestial set. Symbol damage can crit, proc sigil, proc VoJ, heals, apply boon..will try later, having good time experimenting this build

This is my attempt at Pyroclasm build. I think this build suits perfectly for celestial stat equipment. 100% bonus on burning duration might be too much, since Virtue of Justice proc alot. It proc on weapon swings, symbols damage and sigils(I’m using sigil of fire). If 4 targets stand in your symbol, for example, Symbol of Wrath, thats 5 times VoJ proc …from symbol alone.
I’ve been running 30,10,0,0,30 trait and its fun but a bit squishy. Been trying alot of more defensive build, but its not fun, pve-wise. IMO this build deal damage from 3 sources; lots of burning, retaliation and direct damage.

so here, I’m hoping for Anet to release a population vs time graph for each server, so we could figure out when do a server lacking players from a certain timezone..
….or is it already released??
