Equipment guardian qdps

[saitor.1529]

I would like to know what I should use if full Ritualist's or Ritualist's and viper or full viper

¿Which would be more optimal for raid&strike? 

Thank you

Full Viper+Trapper Runes for Condi, 
Full Ritualist +Firebrand Runes for Qdps.
Both use Relic of the Fractal.

Can also just google
"GW2 Qpds Firebrand"
and look at search results from Snowcrows.

Usually, leave this box alone.

You type the reply OUTSIDE of the quote box, not inside.

So some tips

1. These websties serve different purposes most of the time,
like Meta Battle is more general, Discretize is for Fractals, and Snowcrows is for Raid/Strikes.
Different environments have different needs, such as wanting some more survivability in Open World/WvW, specialized glass builds for Raids/Strikes, and Fractals having their own stat modifiers.

2. These websties are not telling you completely different information, you are just missing some key factors.
Condi Firebrand does NOT means it is giving party Quickness Boon, it merely means it is pure Condition Damage, likewise Qpds Firebrand is not the same as Condi Firebrand.
If you have played other games, you will notice that the same class doesn't always do the same thing, that applies to GW2 as well.
If you Google "GW2 Condi Firebrand" and "GW2 Qdps Firebrand", you will get different search results, because they are completely different and specialized builds.

3. Since you sound new, this is more of a personal note, but I do NOT recommend playing Condi Firebrand as a new player in Central Tyria, or Open World.
There are many mobs/objects that either take 0 Condi dmg, or are immune to Burning, which is ANY Guardian Condi build main source of dmg.
Firebrand self sustain is not that great, your only heal option is to use Litany of Wrath (lifesteal heal skill), but whenever that skill isnt up you are very squishy.
Firebrand should be played where there are always other players, like Raids/Strikes/Fractals/WvW.
In Open World I recommend just going Pdps Dragonhunter.
