I am working on a hybrid Scepter/Dagger and Axe/Focus build for PvE and WvW, leveraging Dhuumfire and Target the Weak. I would like some advise / criticism regarding my current stat distribution, as copied below:

Power: 1865
Crit Chance: 50%
Crit Damage: 50% (not including base 50%)
Condition Damage: 1018
Condition Duration: 80% (including 40% food)

Toughness: 1154
Vitality: 1154

This is about as well around balanced as I could get to, while maintaining healthy stats in each category. Does this look good for a hybrid setup, or should I favor one stat over another?

Also, which on-kill stacking rune sigil (Bloodlust, Perception, Corruption) would work best within this build concept?

Toughness might be a little on the low side, for WvW depends on how you play I need to stack toughness because i charge into zergs too much…

Good balanced stats, if you do find you need some toughness drop the crit chance a little to boost toughness, keep the crit damage high.

Thanks for the input, Xom. For WvW, I think I should be OK with this toughness. My current zerker / cavalier build runs about 100 toughness higher, but only has base vitality. I’m pretty good at paying attention to my positioning.

Any thoughts on the kill stacking sigil? I had been leaning towards Perception, since crit would affect both direct damage and bleed / burn proc rates (albeit a very minor affect on burn). However, it sounds like you value precision less than other stats. Would you lean towards Bloodlust?
