So i decided to make a cond build for war just for the Lulz.

Here is the build:

Embrace pain can change to missile deflect when against heavy range.

PVE stats

Some thoughts for you. First I would suggest a gun for condition. The innate bleed has to be better than the fire field burst from the longbow. The longbow from my experience seems more an AOE and debuff weapon.

Sigil of agony isn’t generally a good choice, it doesn’t do any good unless you can add a complete second to your bleed duration for another tick. It isn’t doing it for sword auto attack, or your sigil. I need to mess with my calculator to be more diverse for other bleed abilities. But you need another 3% for the next second on sword auto attack. Sadly durations don’t seem to round up, so even if you have 3.75 duration, it is the same damage as 3.

Last the defensive tree just doesn’t seem very supportive to a condition build, especially a bow one. I would be trying to get as many points into strength as is practical for that duration. Maybe 20 into tactics for burning arrows.
