Relic

Note: you don't have to use 4 daggers for this build. If you only put a mainhand in set 1 and an offhand in set 2, mechanically they'll work the same as having 2 full weapon sets. This could save you some gold on gear. The only reason to have 2 full weapon sets here is if you'd like to use a different set of sigils for each.

Equipment Variants

Relics

• Relic of the Mirage - better condition variety, but it's less bursty than Fractal.

Consumables

Food

Utility

• Optimal: or (only with Celestial), whichever is cheaper (with Celestial the difference beween them is negligible, a grand total of 2 condition damage stat in favor of Tuning Icicle, but on the condi gear magnanimous is the clear winner).

• Budget: either from Canned Food Crates found in WvW s or purchased from the Permanent Portable Provisioner.

Usage

General

• Spam dodge and Death Blossom. Dodging costs 50 endurance, DB costs 5 Initiative, rotate these two in a way that you never run out of both resources at the same time. If you do, use weapon swaps and various CDs to keep going.

• Try to weave in some dagger autoattacks for the Poison when you aren't pressured.

• Swap weapons on CD but make sure that you're missing at least 1 dodge bar's worth of endurance.

• Use Steal on CD but make sure that you're missing at least 2 initiative and half a dodge bar.

• Evading attacks passively heals you, restores intiative, removes conditions and damages opponents.

• Never use Signet of Malice, keep it for the passive healing. View Dagger Storm as your actual healing skill - the rapid attacks combined with the signet's passive heal for quite a high amount, and this healing scales with the number of hostile targets around you.
