I have 1 character and he is an engineer. I’m very bored of the engineer because the only useful build is Grenade kit and elixirs. I’ve tried turret builds, flamethrower builds, elixir gun builds etc. And they are all obsolete compared to grenades. Don’t nerf grenades to make them equal to everything else, make everything better so that the engineer isn’t the most easy to kill class. If you do think about revisiting the engineer to re do its skills and abilities, please please please make the rifle and pistol and shield viable weaponry. The only reason I have a rifle is to have something in my weapon slot, not to use because guess what, Im using grenades. The rifle is pretty much exclusive to the warrior because that’s the only other class that can use a rifle and use it effectively.
Engineer redo please. ASAP
lol… find a new build, or roll another char, bud. Anet isn’t going to just redo a class just for you, no matter how bad you want it :P Everyone else seems to do well with engineer in and out of pvp.
I main an engineer as well bud and I prefer grenade kit as it has a high skill floor so I can always get better at predicting an enemies movements.
This all being said bomb kit is higher damage than grenade kit, (for power builds) generally applies less stacks of vulnerability, the #1 bomb skill should hit harder than any grenades skills other than #2, #4, and the toolbelt skill grenade barrage ( yet again for power build)
SUGGESTION FOR YOU
if you want to try a zerk build that doesn’t focus on a kit I would suggest you look into a static discharge build using toolbelt skills that target enemies, have no cast time or near none, and a quick recharge. This type of build will allow you to do some pretty amazing single target burst damage, while also relying a bit on your rifle with little to no use in your kits. (suggested utilities, Tool kit its got a projectile from its toolbelts skill so will work well with static discharge, it also has a 3 sec block on a 20 sec cooldown non traited, rifle turret as your second utility as it is also a single target projectile ect., and finally last one id say is dealers choice.)
hopefully this helps sorry got a bit long winded.

No way, Engineers are awesome in WvW/PvP with p/p, p/s, rifle, grenades, bombs, toolkit, elixirs, elixir gun and some gadgets. The class has like the biggest pool of viable builds.
