Right now, I run my engineer as an alt and I’d like to occasionally dip into dungeons and some lower level Fractals (1~29). The current meta build is a bit too complex for my tastes and I don’t run in a dedicated team so I can’t guarantee that the boss will be able to stay on the bombs. (In fact I PuG most content.)
Since there are no alternate builds with a lower skill cap (and better suited for PuGs), I was curious as to the opinion on a build an Alternate Grenadier build.
I know it’s not going to give near the amount of benefits as the 3 kit build, but most groups I run into usually have better sources of might than Fire Bomb. I’m just looking for a viable alternative to the more complex meta that I can dip in and out of.
((Note: I did TRY to learn the meta. It’s just a bit too much and I’d like to have an easier build to play with until Hammer Engie drops))

Heyhey Ziggy here
An easier alt build you say hmmm … well ofc it will be less efficient but we all started low didn’t we?
Your build is pretty ok imo. But I wouldn’t use SD (static discharge) since it bugs a bit. On the other hand … with rifle turret it’s ok to use and pretty easy too. Just make sure you hold the rifle while using F4 for SD so you deal double damage. Don’t ask me why, I know why but that’s a looooong story
In the end, if you get used to the engi, try to aim for the meta build
