Stacking sigils still a thing?

I actually see quite a lot of people still using them.
But they are away too inconsistent for HoT maps since you can easily die and lose all your stacks.
Also, in raids they are basically useless and those who do raids won’t be using 2 weapons just to swap for the sigil.
In fractals they are only useful in like half the maps and most people just run the fastest ones where you won’t get many stacks anyway.
All in all they are way too specific.
Fair enough, I was just wondering where the idea of it stands now a days.

theyre good but there are other sigils that you dont have to stay alive for / in 1 map for / get kills for that are slightly less efficient with permanent effects
head here to discuss wvw without fear of infractions
They are really only useful for exploration but why would you need that stacking extra power against trashmobs.
Since in dungeons (heh), fractals and raids you either don’t have enough mobs to stack or may down/die frequently, permanent sigils are preferred. Force/Air for power, Accuracy if you want to offset Perception (always 7% vs. 12% at 25 stacks). And stacking defense attributes is kind of pointless in PvE anyway.
