Opinions etc.

The utilities are more personal preference and fight specific, as are weapons, Longbow or Shortbow may be more use in certain fights, use common sense to find the best utilities for each fight.

Something ain’t right on your boon duration build. You have a trait that applies boons on shout, but have no shouts.

Oops. that trait was meant to be vigourous spirits. Althought Quickening Zephyr could be replaced for Guard, Protect me or Search and Rescue, it is good for quicker evades from GS auto-attack chain but reduced healing can cause a problem. Has to be well timed

For the 3rd build, Do you get additional healing for each shouts? Does it stack?

It Stacks Duration, the idea is to have 100% regen uptime on this build. I use “Sik Em” as with 30 in BM and Sword your pet can do a lot of damage, this could be exchanged for Signet of Stone/Wild etc. Alternatively, Use “Guard” which is a short cooldown so as to give 100% regen uptime on its own then you can choose 2 other utilities that arent shouts, but as guard doesnt really benefit you in any other way i tend to avoid it.

You’re missing 5 points in your GS build, but I assume they would be put in Skirmishing. If that’s the case, then it’s definitely a solid build for PvE. For Fractals runs, that may be one of the better builds to take, except that you will probably want to swap in a ranged weapon as your offhand set for some encounters. In those cases, you could always switch your 20 point investment in Skirmishing for Honed Axes or Quick Draw.

However, I would suggest changing VI in Marks to I.

For your pet build, drop the 10pts in WS, out them in skirmishing, take companions might, you’re running 30 BM with Magi gear, take advantage of your crit chance.

The extra 5 points can be put in either skirmishing or nature magic, I prefer nature magic as can be hard to get behind opponents but you almost always have a boon.
