Guild Wars 2

Hi all,

I am hesitating between 2 different runes and sigils for my setup and am wondering what will give me more overall damage.

For sigil:
Sigil of Bursting (6% condition damage) OR Sigil of Smoldering (+20% burning duration)

For rune:
Rune of the Berserker set (giving +175 condition damage, +65 power, +5 dmg and +5 condition damage) OR Rune of the Elementalist (giving +175 power, +65 condition damage and 20% burning duration)

I am using my staff/scepter-dagger fire Elementalist majorly for wvsw as well as some event pve. My equipment (armor, earrings, neck and rings) is full Carrion and most of my utility skills apply damage and burning.

Many thanks!!

Noone who knows the answer?

Dude, rune of the flame legion if you want burn duration of has no equal. It has extra dps against burning enemies to, however you wont get the extra condi dps, but 7 percent dps against flaming enemies seems better, or maybe you can mix that with some of the ele ones.

I don’t think anyone can give you a very good answer because condi ele is not really a thing. You’re best off going with Celestial, generally a condi ele isn’t going to do enough damage to matter.

I don’t know what game mode you’re playing, which matters for questions like this.

I have 3 of my ele builds listed there if you want to check them out and see what you’re missing out on by playing condi.

condi ele is a thing mate. i would suggest maybe balthazar, flame legion or berserker.

Howso it’s not a thing? With condi setup I deal approx 5000dps in condi damage + the usual direct damage.

Thanks! Is the +7% damage also for the condi damage or just direct damage?

damage in general i presume

Sure it does some damage, but most of your attunements are pretty well useless because your raw damage is almost nothing since you have no crit or crit damage with a carrion build.
