Guild Wars 2

Turret engis are so bad right now, they can’t move anywhere because of long cooldowns on turret skills. They need a trait that lets you pick them up and have no CD when picked up.

Alternatively, give them a trolley skill that allows you to wheel them around. The turrets can still fire while in the trolley.

Nice troll post, man. Engineers have too much access to swiftness as it is.

the only thing they need it’s a MAAAAAAAASIVE nerf.

Lol. Dem trolls.

Actually… Turret builds don’t have swiftness. XD

I didn’t say anything about lack of movement speed, swiftness doesn’t decrease the cooldowns on turret skills which greatly restricts their rotational capacity.
Maybe there should be a trait that makes swiftness reduce cooldowns (kinda like the opposite of chill), so that engis can have perma swiftness, vigor and faster cooldowns if they take all of those traits.

Working as intended. However, looks like in HoT the Engineer specialization involves flying turrets.

If you have seen the HoT promo video you will notice a hammer wielding engineer with goloem ‘drones’ flying behind him. Something like this could be part of a specialization in the Xpac.

Turrets dont need any buff but also any nerf imo not be able to deal with turret engi is L2P issue nothing more:-)

Technically they get swiftness from Net Turret and Experimental Turrets. I don’t think many people use net turret, but supply crate drops one. So you can get like 10s of swiftness on a 250s CD.
