Guild Wars 2

So, I just hit 80 on my Engineer a few days ago, and I was really excited to start my weapon/armor grind. However, as I just found out, kits do not scale according to your actual weapon power. So, my guess is that the developers have given kits a base stat instead of a scaling number.

Now this brings me to my incredible disappoint with the class. I was actually really happy and satisfied leveling my Engineer up. But now I don’t know what to think. Basically any weapon that I get in a dungeon should go to another profession because they can benefit from the stats and sigils, unlike an Engineer.

Basically my complaints are:
-Engineer kits are static. You don’t get to grind for rare aesthetics for them.
-Engineer kits take away your other weapon aesthetics, making the desire for them even less.
-Engineer kits have base stats that don’t scale with your weapon damage.

ANet, I am asking you to please do something so that I can feel like I’m still doing something on my Engineer past the leveling process.

Sounds like engineers need a new customization slot that is for kits. xP

Why does it matter if something doesn’t scale with your weapon damage? It scales with all your other stats.

It’s bizarre that something like that would make you “incredibly disappointed.”

Its not bizarre its his opinion,you may like oranges but he likes apples.

I’ll put it this way. I have my kit that was giving me 2700 attack. I thought that was good until I equipped a level 78 exotic. It gave me 3000 attack. My kit is obviously not as strong as it should be at level 80 with appropriate gear, thus making kits a lot less appealing.

Also worth mentioning that none of the runes on weapons work with kits, which really is something that needs to be adjusted.

Yea, I tried a Flamethrower tank build in PvP, and I was very disappointed.
