Ebon Dust Conditions

I use this build mainly for HM Zaishen Quests. Haven't used it for High-End Stuff like Slavers Exile, UW, etc. but vanquished most areas and missions with it.

So what is this build about?

This build provides a lot of conditions to hinder your enemies - Blind, Cripple, Weakness, Bleed and Cracked Armor. With Eternal Aura, Intimidating Aura and Armor of Sanctity and the Windwalker Insignias, we are also quite tanky (unless we encounter a lot of ench removal)

The elite skill Ebon Dust Aura not only blinds our enemies, it also boosts our damage output when using a scythe with an Ebon upgrade. In combination with Whirlwind Attack, this can deal some nice damage.

Aura of Thorns is our main enchantment to remove with Pious Fury. With 10 seconds cooldown and being an flash enchantment, we can keep Pious Fury 100% up - keep that scythe swinging!

While being a good build on its own, the real fun begins with a fitting group setup. There are 3 heroes that I always have with me (if the group size is 6+):

A Mesmer with Fever Dreams and Fragility. Once that Fever Dream is up, we are every casters worst nightmare.

A Ritualist with Splinter Weapon and Ancestors Rage. I think I don't have to explain that one.

An Elementalist with Double Dragon. This skill is now even better but was already quite good. We deal fire damage every second to enemies around us and our attack skills now additionally inflicts burning, pressuring our enemies even more.

Feel free to try it out and I'm always happy for feedback!
