Dire is underrated in PvE
yup, dire as actually proven to me to be a very awesome stat for HoT content, i use a similar build http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vZAQJA4Yn8MB9OhFNBemC0PhlWCzrM0GiCznwV4LULAcAWAA-TxxBABEqTAgHAgoq/0oSQMOIA3s/QXK/AA-e
but sacrificing a little condition damage from the venom, bursting sigil in and bewildering ambush in favor of more endurance/initiative regen with energy sigils and quick pockets with double dagger swap in order to be able to spam lotus and death blossom non endesly, easily achieving perma 30+ bleed stacks and 10+ poison stacks on enemy while dodgeing 90% of the time
tried on spvp with carrion stats (due to the lack of dire stats on the mist) and performs pretty great agaisnt melee classes, its biggest counters being hard ground targeted aoes like traps/wells or heavy range spike
