Guild Wars 2

What runes do you guys use for condi builds. I have been using rune of the krauit (sp?). I was wondering would mad kings be better cuz it has the 5%?duration on condos. As well as 20%. On bleeds duration. I’m wondering which rune would be the best for stacking bleeds. Also in term of stacking bleeds do you think it’s better to go short bow a/t Or what I’m currently using which is. A/d s/t. But I feel like I can get larger bleed stacks usin shortbow.

Krait/geomancy/leeching s/d a/t.

Shortbow if rabid.
Settlers otherwise.

Krait is best for bleeds, except if you are running with a hybrid power bleed stack, in which case mad king would be better. Assuming you have Sharpened Edges loaded up, Entangle on a 48s CD can be pretty mad with MK runes.
Use whatever weapons you are most comfortable playing mate, don’t force it, use both, pick the one you like.

I don’t like krait because extended bleed duration seems to get wasted a lot when condis are cleared so readily. It’s not bad, I just prefer utility or defense instead.

Energy has fallen out of favor, but I still think its OP and people are just being cawky (can’t spell the word properly). I don’t know how people can like vampirism runes but not energy sigils, that’s horse kitten.
