So I’m wanting to make a condi set but I’m not sure which of the three stat sets to go for. I was thinking dire at first, it would make me tanky as heck but then I wouldn’t have any real crit chance for “on critical” traits and sigils. So then I thought about maybe Rabid since it would give me crit chance for the “on critical” stuff but would leave me lacking on vitality which made me think maybe mixing Rabid with Carrion. It would give pretty much everything, Condi as main stat, Vitality/Toughness to survive, and Precision for the crit chance.
Are the “on critical” things really worth it, or would I be better off going full Dire and not worrying about them?

Edit: Sorry forgot to say that this is for warrior S/S+LB. I’m trying to build it so I could go from WvW to PvE stuff without having to respec every friggin time. Kinda bored of zerker set up too >.<

That sort of thing is probably easiest to figure out by playing around with a build calculator such as http://intothemists.com/ . Since it’s harder to swap traits than gear it would be better to figure out what traits you want first.

First, condition damage in PvE is generally crap because of caps. If you are at an event with a nerco and a SB ranger, you condi warrioe will not make much difference. I would stick with your zerker warrior for this content.

Having said that, I just geared a condition necro to do husk patrol at the new wurm event.

This is what I went with:
Armour: Carrion with runes of the scavenger
Trinkets: Rabid with crests of the rabid
Weapons: Rampager with sigils of bursting, corruption, blood, etc.

All of the above are exotic. I didn’t see the point in investing in ascended just for this.
