Sigil of Fire or Strength?
I’m running a semi-tanky 10/25/15/0/20 GS build on my warrior and I was wondering if I should swap out my Superior Sigil of Fire for a Superior Sigil of Strength.
My armor set is Knights with Runes of Rage, since I lack any traits in the tactics tree to buff my boon duration. With full Berserker’s Trinkets.
I’m sitting at 3k base power. Would Strength help increase my overall damage output? Or should I stick with Fire?
Depends on what weapon you use. Sigil of Strength doesn’t show up as effective unless you have access to good multi-hit moves that have better chances at crits.

Exotic berserker trinkets are a full waste.
You would benefit more from knight trinkets with ruby jewels(you can read more about it on reddit, the big point is that getting critdmg from ring is not as effective as from jewel inside it); but hey, the best option is always to farm out some nice rings with crit DMG out of fractals(and backpack of course!).
I also want to criticize your runes. Of course; arenanet tried to create them equal. But for us, warriors, fury duration plays almost no role; so you could sum up benefits of this rune to 15% crit DMG. While of course you said that you lack any traits in the tactics tree to buff your boon duration(to keep up fury), have you never considered using “FOR GREAT JUSTICE!” instead? I’ve seen 5 signet warriors running around, and i can’t say anything but laugh on them because FGJ just does all signet of might does but better. And i’m not even talking that it’s AOE.
And finally, to answer your question. Of course your gear is lackluster and could use great fixing; Sigil of fire is going to be more beneficial to you(3K power is already too much, more won’t help… it makes sigil of strength not so useful.)

That’s what one would think who read the tooltip of it. Unfortunately, the sigil of strength has 2 seconds internal cooldown, so it won’t proc multiple times on multi-hit moves(seriously, that’s lame; but that’s just how it is)
