Sigils & Runes for PvE build.
On-kill stat stacking sigils.
Any runes that give you stats or Might (Might on you goes onto your phantasm, which means your Phantasms can have 50 “stacks” of Might).
(Might on you goes onto your phantasm, which means your Phantasms can have 50 “stacks” of Might).
No no, they can only have 25 stacks.
Might on you goes to your phantasms, and this is because phantasms don’t have stats of their own. Since they don’t have stats of their own, might on the phantasms does absolutely nothing.
Are you sure? It’s been a while, but I’m quite sure in stuff like CoF P1, when you do the Might Stacking, your Phantasms do a significantly larger amount of damage when using Signet of Inspiration as opposed to leaving them there. When selected, they had 25 stacks of might so I just assumed that was the factor…

I can tell you that signet of inspiration won’t hit your phantasms. If they get 25 stacks of might, it’s because someone was out of position.
Regardless. it’s a pretty easy thing to test in a controlled environment.
I always run PUG, so people being out of position is nothing new to me. I’ve had the worst things possible happen so much that I’m not really surprised when things go wrong and just prepare for it (which usually involves terrible builds that can accommodate that).
So which Runes/sigils do you guys use or prefer?
I really like my sigils of battle. I just think I want to replace the energy ones. But not sure what to use.
And what’s the best runes? I feel like the ruby orbs are lacking now. And I don’t really care about movement speed in pve at all.
In no particular order,
Runes of Scholar
Runes of Strength
Runes of the Ranger
Fantasme Bloodwen [R.I.P. Mesmer] | Andi Runi [Warrior] | Bonedoggle [Necro] | Zooerasty [Ranger]
Angry Intent [AI] | Yak’s Bend |
Angry Intent [AI] | Yak’s Bend |
My new favorite set up in pugs is runes/sigil of strength, sigil of battle. I can generate a decent amount of long duration might myself to give to the party with signet of inspiration.

I kinda like the idea oh the strength runes + sigil of battle/strength
I also like Scholar runes but my problem would be having low crit chance.
With ruby orbs without any food or buff i have base 54% crit chance. with food it’s 64% wich means my phantasms have 84% with fury.
I think without the precision from the ruby orbs my crit would only be around 44%, 54% with food making my phantasms only have 74% crit chance… Which I find kinda lacking.
Is it still worth to go for strength/scholar runes and is 74% still a good crit chance or should I go for something that gives prec?

Perception stacking gives 250 more prec, and you can generally assume Banner of Discipline, which is another 150 or so. This gives you another 20%, taking you to 104%, which is about right (though you could use a bit worse food if you want or swap that to something else).
