Guild Wars 2

I’ve been running this build for quiet some time now, and I am by no means the best player. I’ve “only” logged ~710h overall, but lately I’ve had the urge to try to better myself as much as I can.

So this is my condi-build

Explanation of why I made some choices
•I’d like to point out that i 95% of the time I just PvE with my wife.
•I chose GS over S/D because of the stupid sword-animation.
•Signet of the hunt just for the speed-boost, since sword/warhorn gives the same problem.^
•Raven for blindness and dps / bear for tanking.

•30 – Marksmanship for “Keen edge” and “Opening strike” buffs so I can really pack a bleed-punch right of the bat, and I get 30% condition duration .
•30 – Wilderness Survival mostly for the condition damage, but with the Undead runes I also benefit from the toughness. Traitwise I tried to get some condi-removal, and I really wanted “Companions defence” so I could sorta dodge for my pet. Wich kinda works with the “Natural vigor”.
•10 – Nature magic just for “Strength of spirit” so I could up the power even more.

•I run the “Carrion” set because of the vitality -> power change. I think the power does more damage than if would to run a “Dire” set. Vitality to power = 7%, Toughness to Condition = 5%
•Celestial trinkets because, well, honestly I bought my amulet way back because it looked cool, then some kind of selective OCD kicked in and everything else HAD to be celestial, and now I dont have the funds to swap them out :P

As I said, I’m not a hardcore player, but not really a casual player either i think. I mostly just PvE with my wife, doing the LS-updates and maybe a dungeon now and then.

So I’m just looking to up my game a little bit
Any suggestions are welcome, I have a few ideas of my own, but I’d like to hear what the more “involved” players have to say.

The build is nice, but i changed a few things for it. Kept you original weapon set/trinkets and runes, but changed the armor to rabid, and the trait distribuition.

Going full in skirsmishing alows you to proc bleeds faster, and the 10 in nature magic cam be put in marksmanship (it’s almost the same amount of power btw). You can get some extra condition ticks with traps (fire trap + drake for that lovely might). Also i’d recomend using Rampage as One, for extra might stacking and a sword/torch/dagger, but the gs is fine as well. Try and practice with the sword and you will see that it’s a better choice than gs.
