Guild Wars 2

Which is better for iniative gain, the extra three iniative from the trickery tree, or the quick recovery skill that grants 2 iniative every ten seconds in the acrobatic tree?

You would want to have the initiative regen faster from my experience.

On long term:
3 initiatives every 37-45 sec
against
2i/10s —> 8i/40s
Trait will win.

However, for a quick burst, 3initiatives would win.

Depends on how you want to use it.

Thanks, I’m looking more at long term fights in which I’m not going for pure burst output more long term dps upkeep, in which case the acrobatic trait seems to be more interesting for me.
