Slaying Sigils and Potions Guide for Dungeons

Which Sigls and Potions are best for Dungeons? Continue reading to find out!

Guild Wars 2 offers different Sigils that increase your damage against a special type of enemy or when certain circumstances are met (e.g. the instance you are in taking place at Night) as well as several Enhancements that we refer to as Slaying Potions. Using both of these in the correct ways will lead to you dealing much more damage than using your standard gear for every Dungeon.

This guide is your one-stop-shop to all the information you need on Sigils and Potions for each Dungeon in Guild Wars 2.

Please notice that it is not mandatory to use them in order to finish a Dungeon, but can really help if you are struggling, especially because the Potions also bring a -10% incoming damage modifier.

  • The Sigils and Potions only work for power damage. If you play a condition based build, just use your usual Enhancement and Sigils.
  • When a table entry says "None", it means that there is no specific Sigil or Potion for this boss or path. In this case, you should just stick to your standard build.
  • For Paths with different Sigil and Potion combinations, it is usually best to just use the combination that is listed under "All other Bosses", unless you seriously want to minmax your gameplay.
