Runes for Condi bunker roaming
In PvP, Thorns might be a good choice as you get hit so often you’ll always have that extra damage bonus up.
yeh i played around with that and poison trap works ok but in pvp i use sage for that stuff so i prefer forge runes, but i have plently of toughness roaming so i dont kneed forge runes
krait runes used to be very popular, I think it still is a very good choice, especially if you’re running traited (wilderness knowledge) survival skills, especially with the elite entangle, don’t forget troll unguent either, lightning reflexes, and use muddy terrain to lock down more. I’d equip all slots with survival skills except for maybe 1 for signet of the wild for some stability.
With other weapon skills like MH axe 2 and 3, torch skills, reef drake for an extra (cover)condition and to blast a field, lynx or snow leapard.
Staff for a more defensive set up and to kite more.
Sword/- to keep torch #5 on quickdraw if you have skirmishing, or sword/warhorn to blast things, some might fury and swiftness.
Shortbow as it’s condition-based, you’ll have to experience (in exotic first) what fits you best.
Sigils:
corruption.
geomancy, hydromancy or energy to kite more (maybe renewal for quicker CA)
+moar% condition foods ofc.
Used to have a lot of fun with that

Justine Grenth runes are great they are good for keeping up the pressure in between burst force them to use CD’s and what not
I used Aristocracy runes for a while before HOT (before specializations i think, stright after Axe got Might) on an apoth gear are there are some benefits.
Nightmare runes are my thought as well (I’m doing TA runes atm) with 2 trapper runes or not, I’m not sure yet. full trapper runes is not that great for me as i do not always use traps and i have other sources of stealth if i want them. to me its also a give away that a traps been layed, i avoid guards when i see them go invis and use my pet to set traps off.
Does anyone have some more ideas?
