Zeph.5927 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I saw a build from Vallun that used celestial gear with Greatsword and mace/axe. It converts chill effects into torment damage. His build was meant for WvW but it looks like it could be slightly altered to work in the open world. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulkas.2576 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 That build is a lot of fun, but my god does it have a lot going on. For open world I’d run it as is but with Jalis/Mallyx or Shiro/Mallyx, Corruption 1/1/1 and Vindicator 1/3/2 or 3/3/2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nosleepdemon.1368 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) It's good, especially in PvE where you can focus more on getting quickness from utility 2 and combining it with mace auto to build condition stacks quickly. I run celestial, because it is superbly versatile and my alacrigrade build already required it. The only downside is that I can't use Aether anymore.

Works in the sense of "you can play condi Vindi in PvE" but is worse than condi Herald which is also surpassed by condi Renegade. Main problem is that the greatsword is a pure strike damage weapon, which can proc a bit torment on chill with the Retribution trait, and the Alliance has also a bit of burns and torment. So you barely get any condi damage compared with mace + axe and the elite from Mallyx. At the end, you're just running a core Rev with a single evade. In WvW and PvP you can use celestial/carrion, but is nowhere near a Willbender which can ramp up 25 to 40 stacks of burns in seconds depending on how frail you want to run your yolo build. Other professions get a lot more from celestial or trailblazer stats than the Vindicator. The day Vallun tested the build which was refered he dueled a celestial Virtuoso for over 20 minutes, and most of the time his condi Vindi was unable to lower the enemy HP below 80%. WB is also way better. So short answer: no, doesn't work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
