So ive been gone for a while and i got back recently, i collected some gold now and its time to upgrade to exotic… so, im focusing on PvE now although WvW is still relevant in the equation. Im only gonna afford one set so… Im a conditionmancer, standard scepter/dagger + staff. So its either the Cond/Prec/toughness from dung armor, khilbrons or karma vs Rampager gear with Cond/Prec/Power… so ima try list some pros and cons, and i hope i can get some feed back… what i mostly wanna know is if the Cond/Prec/Power is a good choice or not.

Pros and Cons of Rampagers set:
+Highest damage output (Even the power together with the crit will add a good dmg bonus to scepter, and esp staff)
+Makes Staff a much more effective swap since the marks scale well.
+Finally decent damage towards structures etc (good in some dungeons, great in WvW)
+ Death Shroud is alot more effective
+ Much cheaper set and easy to get cos of being craftable
+Higher direct damage helps getting good participation in world events or other situations when there already are 25 stacks of bleed.
+Better build variety, can switch to power builds and still be effective
-No defensive stats, squishyness? (How bad will it be in dungeons?) Although Necro do have DS mechanic and high health pool to counter this somewhat, also with the new coming ring with cond vit and tough maybe this can be countered somewhat

Pros and Cons of Cond/Prec/Tough
+Higher survivability from toughness
+Still has the two most important stats for condition necro
- Lower dmg output, esp from staff and esp towards structures etc
-Death shroud less effective
-Khilbrons is expensive, dungeons take time to farm and karma aswell.
