Hey everyone! I’m lvling an engie and I theorycrafted a build for him and would like some feedback. I haven’t decided what I would use him for just yet. I’ll probably just play him when I get bored with my mains.

I have most of the trinkets from my mes when I did condis with him so getting ascended won’t be an issue.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Was also thinking about using rifle instead of the double pistol.

It is just bad I don’t know where to start.

-Elixir H is one of the weakest healing skills in the game. It is so far behind all other engineer healing skills, just worth if you play HGH and use all traits for elixirs.
-Flamethrower is a power weapon. Just with burning you can’t play condition damage. It’s like playing guard condition because of burning.
- Anyway, Elixir gun and Flamethrower are utility weapons. Means: you won’t kill any expert player with this. Because they deal so less damage. Use bombs or grenades or both.
-If you really wanna play FT, use rifle and power/celestial equipment.
- If you really wanna play burning kitten, use torch and incendiary powder. Thats enougth; use some other sources of damage additional like grenades to be more flexible. You can also add bombs for more burning.

Anyway, what is this build for? Open World? Dungon? Fractals? WvW? We need more details to go further.

Thanks for the response. I did say I was lvling/learning engie. But again, thanks. And not sure what I would do with my engie as of yet. Only lvl 60, so I have time to figure it out. I rarely do dungeons/fractals so this would be geared more for open world or WvW.

Thanks again for your input.
