I’m running a S/A and LB Power build with Skirmishing, Marksmanship and Beastmastery. This is for PvE and WvW content. I’m just wondering what pets benefit the build most.
I’m running Krytan Hound and Arctic Wolf for the Immobilize and Chilled on F2 respectively, along with the Cripple on their leap attacks.
Are there any other pets I should consider for this build?

Why would you need those pets for that? Between yourself and others, should have no problem keeping movement impairing conditions on enemies. I feel like you’re just kitten in your damage for no reason there.

While I kinda agree with Shaogin (sword AA does so much cripple), have you considered Owl, White Moa, or Snow Leopard? Their F2 skills (that all do Chill) are attacks instead of howls so their dps will be better than Canines if F2 is used off-cooldown.

I’m not sure how they’d work in WvW though.

I’m using the Snow Leopard and Jaguar in PvE. Not tried WvW since I returned to the game(after a 2 year+ absence) but in the old days I used Canines for the knockdown(solo roaming, power+healing power build). I’d time it such that my Rapid Fire went off when the target was knocked down, then LB 5 before switching to GS for Swoop>Hilt bash>Maul around a Healing Spring.
