SB + S/D Carrion Ranger WvW/PvP Build
Anything? o: I need criticism lol
Well.. I havent used carrion much, and not at all outside of PvP, so I cant claim to be an expert.. but a few comments are these:
1) IMO SB is not a good condition weapon without precision. I would take Axe + Torch as your other set, especially since you didnt take a torch in the first place and burning is invaluable on any condition build.
2) Following on from that, with SB doing so little and being only 900 range, I’m not sure piercing arrows is of much value. I’d move 2/4 trait points out of MS into pretty much any other traitline, but if you really dont want to I’d at least change Piercing Arrows for SotB.
3) You say Undead Runes on the post and have Nightmare Runes on the build, but regardless I think Krait might suit you better.
4) Those sigils of agony are really not worth it. I’d swap them for Geomancy in a heart beat.
5) Skills wise.. you have an odd set but I cant see any particular reason why it couldnt work. Like I said, I’d take SotB over Piercing Arrows to get more use out of the Signet, or I’d move 4 MS traitpoints to WS, get SotF and then swap your spike trap for MT or Sharpenning Stone. Oh and I prefer TU over HaO but.. HaO isnt that bad really so I guess thats up to you.
Gunnar’s Hold
I would highly recommend switching Signet of Stone with fire trap. If you are going to have condition damage, I would suggest using it.
also, with s/d as part of your build, I would recommend changing some of your traits to get benefits from their ability to evade more often.
here’s my carrion build

@irk,
Why do you have two sigils that rely on critical chance, when your critical chance is only 18%? Given that those sigils’ effects then only activate on another chance, they’ll almost never pop.
Heal as one is a bad heal. Take Troll or Spring instead. Maybe switch Spike trap for Muddy terain (it’s survival so fits more your trait disposition).
