So yeah,

i don’t know much about guardians and now have the problem that i don’t know what traits i should use to get a sub 10 min Lupicus Solo.
I recently went over to 20/25/0/25/0 (10 min 10 seconds) from 0/0/30/20/20 (around 12 min) but im missing the 20% Consecration recharge. So where should i take out 10 points to get 10 in the last tree in?

I would suggest take 10 pts out of Zeal. You want to keep radiant power for more damage w/ conditions. Power can be buff through consumable like Plate fo Truffle Steak.

Yeah i thought doing that too but since lupicus has reduces condition duration im not sure if it wouldnt be better to take them out of the second tree. The second major trait is almost useless and 100 power>100 precision.

Actually food can give you back 100 power or 100 precision. The major lost in losing 10 Zeal is 5% damage on GS.
I would assume you have 2 Sigil of Energies on GS & Shield. If it’s GS your main attack weapon it’s better to keep the 20s in Zeals (5% more damage on GS) and drop 10s on Radiance. Then recover your critical chance by using consumable like Bowl of Curry Butternut Squash Soup (+100 prec + 10% Crit). However, when I tested w/ traits varied (see below), the 1st option is more appealing than the 2nd option.

Edited: I put my build in GW2buildcraft.com ( I have 10/25/0/25/10 build because I ran Arah often, so I need the 20% Cons. recharge rate) & swap traits to test it out w/ appropriate supplemental food only. The 10 points in Zeal is better and there must be a reason why I chose this for my Arah. You could use the site above, put in your gears and vary your traits to find the optimum damage for your set up.

The problem in taking 10 out of Zeal is not loosing the 5% damage boost for the GS, it is the minor trait which makes symbols inflicting vulnerability. That 1 stack of vuln isnt important itself but its a condition, which will make me deal 10% more damage.
Problem with buildcraft is that it does not calculate all variables and traits, etc in.
Just wanted to try him with 10/25/0/25/10 now but apparently he had something against. He just continued sitting and didn’t turn hostile.
