I like all the engi love but you have to think about practicality, while engi has a high potential many (including myself) don’t reach the actual potential. it’s possible, it’s not out of reach, but in a practical sense we drop quite a bit. That said Engi is still high, you can do great damage without perfection, it’s just worth noting that optimal isn’t likely.
Also, an Engi solo beat the Ele solo of bloomhunger, yay reflects
Take a group of mediocre PUGs and the ease of Staff Ele or GS warrior is likely going to win out. In a speed run where everyone is performing near optimal and yes Engi will skyrocket. It’s just not something you should count on being realistic. A good-great engi will be awesome, a mediocre engi vs a mediocre warrior and the warrior will win out. Generally speaking Staff Ele/GS War/DDThief are all pretty easy great damage. The next level would be Guard/Engi for mediocre players.
I say this because I don’t think people should adhere to the possible when PUGing, just the possible when optimizing, and don’t assume anyone will optimize if you don’t know them and how good of a player they are.

While your grain of salt is always healthy, with everything…. really everything.
The OP is actually asking about their relation in speed clear comps, where you don’t have to treat everyone like an npc outside of basic interaction.

You forgot ranger Jerus, or is pressing 5 and 2 on long bow and swaping to auto with a sword to hard? Snark level aside for rangers, If you wana see big numbers easily staff ele is the way to go, followed by thief (if you want to learn how to stealth), and GS camping warrior (not good personal DPS but really good might stacking).

Last I checked on warrior Gs camp has always been their best overall dps and the only reason in pve, for using Axe/mace on swap was for the group wide buff via the vuln it would generate to make up for the loss of dps and might from swap. Warrior still has pretty good personal dps all things considered, without looking it up I want to say Nike(Dnt for those who don’t know) posted something of a ~100k Gs 2 in a run so ya know around 2/3 of a Icebow 4.
Oh and ranger meta has shifted away from the longbow in favor of Gs Sw/a atm so no more lb busts, at least not in most cases, it’s not bad just there are better things atm.

The reflects helped, which is something you can’t do on most bosses…
More importantly, he was just exploiting the grenade bug. That’s not a legit kill.
The same engi did 4:54 pre-patch before the grenades were bugged.

:D what can I say, was just a bit tired of spreadsheet info last night. It’s all well and good but without a bit of reason applied it’s not very meaningful.
