Condition Build with movespeed
Is this for PvE or PvP? Anyway, we’ve got Signet of the Hunt, Call of the Wild, Resounding Timber and Tailwind.
The first is a terrible choice, as our condi weapons do lots of little hits making the Signet of the Hunt active worthless. Taking Warhorn over our other condition related offhands is an odd choice, but I’ve seen a weird build that uses it, splitblade, mad king runes, a bird pet and Entangle to nuke someone with 50+ bleeds and a dozen birds clawing at their eyes. Resounding Timber is probably your best bet in the profession, you sacrifice a few utility slots, but end up doing a mix of condi damage personally and physical damage through your pet. Tailwind is probably in your condi build and you didn’t even realise it, if you swap on cooldown you’ll have perma swiftness while in combat.
Storm Spirit and Rampage as One are also in our swiftness repertoir, but neither are particularly suited for travelling so they’re meaningless if you’ve taken tailwind.
Outside of just our profession mechanics you can always take Runes of the Traveller, they’re decent with a condi build. They don’t come cheap though.

If nothing else, you can push yourself to taking Beast Mastery tree that is finally viable and powerful and take the Shout Trait – and sacrifice 1 utility slot for Guard (and you can take Heal as One, too).
This way you’ll get perma swiftness and regeneration. Hope this helps.

It’s mostly for PvP and WvW. I ususaly take the signet when running LB/GS but I had no idea what other options where available. Thanks HotHit for giving me some info but I kinda like the new beast mastery trait so i’ll look into Guard for perma swiftness like Tradic said! Thanks both of you!
You are welcome, Sir.
Anytime.
