Guild Wars 2

If i want to be a glass cannon DPS mesmer with power, perc, crit. What runes or orbs would better my outcome to achieve this goal. New to 80, looking for some help

Ruby Orbs, or Runes of the Eagle, Scholar, or Ogre from what I hear.

and for your weapons? sword, focus/greatsword? i heard accuracy and bloodlust

Depends.

- Sigil of Fire for extra AoE damage (My personal fav. procs a lot), Sigil of Air for swiftness and single target damage.
- Force/Accuracy are good in general (but I usually dont use them).
- Bloodlust and Perception can add up to 250 to your Power or Precision (and can stack two of the same for double the bonus).
- Sigil of Energy for more clone production, Hydromancy for more CC.

As a mesmer, I like access to perma swiftness, so Rune of Air if you use a focus, but I go with Rune of the Centaur, for perma swiftness on the Mirror Heal

I like my Sigil of Battles… 3 stacks of might every swap that lasts for 20 seconds, if you put on both weapon sets, that can occur every 10 seconds, you can get a lot of might consistently! LOL you can also tell by the price that it’s good and well in demand xD

Depends.

Sigil of Air for swiftness and single target damage.

I didnt know sigil of air gave swiftness :O. I always found it really underwhelming because sigil of fire seems to do the same damage and its aoe.
Maybe youre talking about the runes of air? Its one of my personal favourite for the swiftness, but lately ive been trying might duration runes for condition builds aswell ^^.

edit: Might duration runes are fire, strength, hoelbrak and stuff. They work in direct damage builds too to give the staff some more punch, but im not sure if its worth the loss of runes of air yet. Definitely more sustained damage against people who know how to avoid shatters. (its in pvp ofcourse)
