Immediately apologize for my speech because I do not speak English(In
some parts of the text, I used a translator). I’d like to say about the engineer. This is a very fun and unique profession, which contains everything you need: dps, defensive skills, etc. But. It looks ugly, scary packages that can be neither removed nor changed their appearance. Wrench set too unpleasant looks at the background of the majority of costumes, especially this rusty shield. I certainly understand that if I do not like it, I just can not take this set, but it is impossible.The kit contains, wrench very useful skills that almost certainly take any Build. I would also like to say about bombs – they look like wooden bowls that creepy eyesore.
Why am I saying this? I just do not want to play for such an enjoyable and comfortable in all aspects of the profession only for appearance. Otherwise all the mechanics done beautiful .If it were possible to replace models holders at back bags, bombs and sets overall, for the gems. This class would be invaluable. I think my opinion coincides with others, not only because I want is.

Hi Wolf

English is fine! I think you are referring in general to the hobosacks – currently a big discussion with lots of people agreeing with you here – https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/engineer/Hobo-Sacks-A-Terrible-Fashion-Statement/page/14#post3834344

Last I heard there was a teasing hint that the devs may be doing something about it but wouldn’t expect it for a long time yet!

I agree 100%, Wolf. Visual appeal is probably the biggest downfall of this profession and is most likely the one of the main reasons Engi is the least played. People mainly complain only about the hobosacks (and rightfully so), but this is just as bad of a problem since cosmetics is a good portion of endgame with weapons playing a large part in it. This includes turrets as well.

The bombs and grenades are probably the worst, in my opinion. One looks like a wooden cupcake and the other is like a stuffed tube sock tied to a rope. Everything we use looks pretty much skritt worthy. I could never imagine why Anet thought this was a good idea with all more advanced and cool looking technology in the game already, and especially since our character isn’t supposed to be your average Joe.
