Guild Wars 2

Which amulet is better for a spirit ranger build in solo queue pvp, rabid or carrion?

When running rabid, I generally use offensive on-crit sigils for my SB (Earth & Strength). What sigils would you use with a Carrion build?

Do you tend to stick with weapon swap sigils, such as Geomancy, Battle or Energy? Is there any room for the new on-hit based sigils (i.e. Nullification, Purity or Frailty for extra condi coverage)?

Also, are Runes of the Forge still the “best” choice for Carrion builds? Where there any rune changes in the April patch that compete with Forge now?

For the non-TLDR crowd, I recently started playing tpvp (mostly solo Q, some team) and have found the most success with running a spirits build as a team fighter and rotational defender. I am currently running a Rabid build, but have been reading a lot about Carrion builds for this setup. The only problem is that I cannot find any new info since the April patch. So I want to get an idea if the rune / sigil choices have changed before I hop into rated games.

I like carrion on 4/0/6/4/0 with SB.

SB has pretty good damage on auto so it makes a good hybrid. I don’t really use swap sigils with SB because it is my main weapon, and I don’t want to swap if I don’t have to. I use sword/horn on the other set for a defensive setup.

if you want to bunker or serve as home node defender, try using settler instead.
