Guild Wars 2

What is the current meta build for d/d and condi damage?

No real meta. You pretty well have to go DD.

CS is the only line you will likely never use in any type build.

The rest see use dependent on your gamestyle and what you want to accomplish in a d/d build. It does find use in Acro more than most but SA DA and trickery all work as well. SA generally if you go with a venom build. Trickery for more ini (thus dbs) and BA with uncathabl and DA for potent poison and panic strike.

Havent played Condi Thief ever so far, but if I would ever change my build to one, I think this is what I would try out to play:

Weapon Sets:
Set 1: Dagger/ Dagger or Dagger/ Pistol
Set 2: Shortbow or Pistol/ Pistol based on how much mobility is important and wehat is playd, if PvE, PvP or WvW and if running alone or in a group/zerg

Used Sigils
Set 1: Sigil of Frailty + Sigil of Bursting
Set 2: Sigil of Energy + Sigil of Malice or also Bursting

Trait Setting:
Seen from this view: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/List_of_thief_traits

DA ~ Up – Mid – Low
TR ~ Low – Mid – Up
DD ~ Mid/Low – Up/Mid – Mid

Equipment Set Weapons – Either Sinister Upgrades (Condition Damage, Power, Precision), Viper Upgrades (Power, Condition Damage, Precision, Expertise), or Trailblazer Upgrades (Toughness, Condition Damage, Vitality, Expertise)
Equipment Set Armor – Based on what is played PVT, Sinister, Viper, Trailblazer or a Mix

Healing Skill ~ Either Signet of Malice or Withdraw, if ticking Conditions would finally trigger also SoM’s Healing Effect, then clearly SoM.

Utility Skills ~

- Shadow Refuge/ Caltrops/ Skale Venom/Shadow Step based on how I want to play practically or whats more useful for the situation
- Impairing Daggers
- Signet of Agility (doubling practicalyl your Endurance, what is very useful for your Survivability and especially for more spamming of DD’s Lotus Dodge to spam more Ebola all around you…
Elite Skill ~ Dagger Storm/ Impact Strike (for PvP, Instant Finisher is just to useful there to get quickly rid of annoying enemy players)

Rune Set in Armor ~ Rune of the Traveler (= +10% Condition Durations, Perma +25% Run Speed and to all stats a pluss, so more Condi Damage, more Power, more Expertise, more Toughness, more Vitality, everythign helps here, thats why Condi is so simple, you need nearly nothing but just Condi Damage for max DPS and Expertise, everythign else is just a sweet little bonus…)

Buff Items used in PvE/WvW
Food: Birthday Blaster, Bowl of Orrian Truffle and Meat Stew, Rare Veggi Pizza, first if I have no Buff Food at hand, otherwise Bowl for Might on Dodge and more Ebola Dodges due to 40% Endurance Regen+, or Pizza for simple longer lasting Conditions and more Condition Damage.
Nourishment: Toxic Tuning Crystal = +100 Condition Damage, +10% Condition Durations

Don’t know if this is kind of Condi Thief meta, but I just searched together all stuff that I would use right now, if I’d ever plan on changing my Character to become Condi Thief.

Hope, this is helpful for you OP

Sidenote:

Maybe rather exchange for PvP with Carrion to have more Health, unless your super skilled and a god of dodging always at the perfect time xD
Also Pressure Striking is maybe better exchanged with Bountiful Theft to get Vigor and two other Boons when stealing to help with the Endurance Regen so that you can dodge more oftenly, I thinks thats overall much better than the Torment from Interrupts when I overthink what Ive written here after seeing that build in the Editor xD
