Was thinking about trying out a build based on signets. With Fire Embrace I gets an aura so was putting some into aura traits too. But I haent decided what gear I should go for. Any suggestions?

The build this far:

it’s a cool trait build in theory which unfortunately performs poorly in practise, mainly because it gives up so much survivability.

downed state is bad for PVP

I run similar build as well: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fFIQJAodhcM6bW2wuBf0ACAS4ANeMuXwii2A-TlQLwAPV/BgeAA-w

I have to say, after testing it in the Crown Pavilion, it is very very squishy. I basically have to keep triggering Fire Aura in order to get some protection boon. Still, I feel squishy. I am wearing Celestial just to get some extra toughness and health, and still feel squishy. I may as well go full on Berserker or Assassin.

I have to say that it is a very busy build. You have to keep an eye on the recharge of those signets and those shields from your weapon skills. I am dancing between Fire and Air for damage and use Water and Earth for utilities and survivability.

There is a nice synergy between active auras and being able to get zephyr’s boon and elemental shielding; however, some of the traits you pointed out are pretty bad still, even with 4 signets, signet mastery is very unimpressive, and the best thing about written in stone is you can spam heal active on cooldown which still takes a while and makes it so you can’t use ether renewal which is a much better heal to cure condis. 20 seconds to 16 seconds on your fire signet active isn’t saving the day.
