Guild Wars 2

I am running a support build for my guardian with a mace/shield and a staff.

I am planning on using the Superior Sigil of Water but it just says on hit. Does that mean off of any attack or on crit like the other attacks or does it even mean from a heal or specific attacks i dont get what it is trying to tell me.

Sigil of Water only activates on-crit.

For some reason the tool-tip lacks that detail.

That sucks if i am support why do i want to stack crit…. Guess i can try though

Just a few notes when I tested the sigils.

1. Sigil of Water procs only on crits (unstated).
2. Sigil of Water heals less on yourself than Sigil of Blood (only 80 less) and less often (2 seconds compared to 10).
3. Sigil of Water and Sigil of Blood are both affected by healing power (uncertain if the extra healing affects the damage the enemy takes).

For a crit/solo build, take Sigil of Blood over water as you’ll heal for a higher amount and more often. Sigil of Water could be useful, but I would still favor Sigil of Blood as it not only heals, but damages the enemy (and appears to ignore armor). If you are trying to support your allies, you could always use the Sigil of Water. Personally, surviving longer means you can support your teammates longer.
