Just wanted to see how many people still play to run stacker sigils with the upcoming change and why.

They are changing the stackers to be 1 charge for PvE mob and 5 for player kills. You can no longer unequip the weapon with the stack charges on them and keep the stacks.

Will this upcoming change cause you to drop stackers or still run them in WvW?

Didn’t they also say that the stacks are going to be changed from static increases to percentage increase? I think that would make a difference too if so.

in my case, the opposite is true. i never bothered to run a stacking weapon and switch it out before, but now that i can have 2 sigils on my staff, i will be able to get bloodlust stacks.

I didn’t check the actual source, so does “unequip” mean moving the weapon to the inventory or swapping to the other weapon set?

If former, then I can imagine any build that rely on single main hand weapon might use this, in addition to Eles and Engies.

it means moving the weapon to your inventory will remove your stacks.

You can probably just run one in WvW/Pve in an underwater weapon and it won’t matter if you unequip the ‘normal’ weapon with the stacking sigil.

Yea I’ve seen this brought up they might just leave it I mean if you go through all that trouble of going underwater might as well let you have it.

No reason not to run it. Plus farming free stats before engagement seems a kitteneap imo. You want those stacks, you should be stuck with the weapon that got you them. Besides, they are lost on downed so having X5 stacks per player kill will be great in the midst of an open field fight where getting back up is a reality. Plus, 2H weapons can get 2 sigils so as far as where you’ll be from before and after the update, its a bonus not a nerf (except to any engi and ele who doesn’t use a 2h weapon).

Eles probably will, although we cannot swap them out, their bonus will probably be better than anything else we can keep in the slot.

I never had separate stacking weapons. I knew this sort of change would eventually come, so if I wanted to use a stacking sigil it was in the weapons that I always used. So no real change for me in that regard.

I’ll probably still use them where I have them, but might switch out a few of the others for the new possible combos (i.e. torment and earth sigils on one weapon set).

On my d/d ele, I will start running fire instead of bloodlust, because I’m too lazy to get stacks every time I die. On my other characters, I will most likely keep the bloodlust if they were already using it.
