Building up a fractal condi soulbeast


Recommended Posts

She has all Yassith's gear (viper) and soulbeast (condi and power) runes. She uses dagger/dagger primarily, and wields a shortbow for distance stuff. The character will be doing some limited other PvE, but no WvW or PvP at all. Mostly she will be dedicated T4 (and maybe CM) fractals.

Some of the details are questions for me:

On the daggers, your thoughts on the first sigil being agony (bleeding) vs. venom (poison).How about the other sigil: bursting or malice?Or, maybe some other combination?

On the shortbow, thoughts on agony vs. bursting vs. malice? (Poison is only on one skill on the bow, so it seems a waste.)

Should the infusions be all condi, all expertise, some combination of those, or something else?

Finally, with the party having both alacrity and healing specialists already, is it worth putting on a couple of healing runes for myself or not?

Any reason you are running slow ramp condis like bleeding/poison? Most trash mobs die faster than the condis will ramp so I think you're better off with power on ranger.

Per discretize, the only condi build recommended is the condi quickness firebrand (offmeta) with half grieving stats. That is arguably better than the power variant since it can put out near 35K DPS instead of 23K or so. Burning has a much lower ramp time.

In general condition is alot worse compared to power when it comes to fractals. If you however really wanna go condi I think you should run full vipers with 6 krait runes and dagger/torch(sigil of bursting and earth) and axe/dagger(sigil of bursting and earth).That way you atleast get a good raid/strike build for yourself.

Also note, playing condition can heavily limit the t4 and CM groups where you can join.
