Best Trait Route?
For leveling efficiency? Go the Arms/Signet build. For quality of life? Discipline for faster weapon swapping and a reduced cooldown on your elite signet.
That’s a completely loaded question. You trait spec is completely dependent on your chosen weapons, skills, and combat style.
Can you give us a general idea about the type of gameplay that you’re looking for? Do you prefer a kamakazi glass cannon or a “slow and steady” dps output? Would you prefer to have inherent abilities or do you like having to layer self-buffs on yourself using a constantly casting rotation? Are you a melee or ranged type of person? Did you want to just help yourself, or did you want to be able to help / buff others?
I want to be able to help myself and others and i am mostly melee based. I don’t mind whether i fight slow and steady or kamakazi style.
i think for dungeons a zerker gear along with full def/vitality traits works very well.

This is my trait, I have done dungeons and solo pve and some WvW. usually wears zerk gear in WvW, explorer’s gear in dungeons. This trait basically exploits the 30% boon duration stacks, 60% boon duration with 2/6 monk and 2/6 water runes. Plus, very nice party-wide healing from shouts.
