I recently dumped my main. A profession I had been playing since launch. I found them to be extremely amazing in PVE and group Wv3, totally pigeonholed in sPVP and abysmal in solo roaming (sometimes even as a commander I can get caught solo). I wanted to play a class that seemed to be able to put some hurt on folks, provide above average support and take a bit of a hit.

Engineer seemed like a good choice. I felt they are under appreciated and under played so I went with it. I really do like it. As I close in on 80, I’m starting to think about endgame gear/builds. I’ve done a bit of Youtubing and searches online and came across this link:

This build seems incredibly fun and dynamic. With the recent patch overhaul, is this build still in working order or has some other meta taken over?

Appreciate your time.

I would say go for it, its not bad but that build is a little outdated since it was introduced. Elixir s is only reliable as a finisher nowadays and then theres the fact that removing boons is a lot more common now. If you use up are your utilities to stack 25 mights and a thief steals them from you or you get boon corrupted (Both those classes seems to be pretty common in wvw)…you will probably not survive. Otherwise it still has a lot of potential against other classes.

Edit: You might wanna try it in spvp first before committin to it
