Guild Wars 2

I would like for some more of the traits we currently have to add new effects and playstyles to the wrench.

we have 1 trait so far that effect Wrench.

Well how about some traits that allow Wrench to heal allies in some way.

Or to apply boons to ally and take boons from enemy.

or a trait that adds a chain effect skill to Gear shield and Magnet

Since ToolKit is our only true melee option, I’d like to see a trait or 2 that allows it to become a primary kit rather than a utility kit. With such hard hitting auto and prybar, it’d be neat to have a trait that modifies something like how Power Wrench gives Smack a cripple. But TK has a magnet pull, cripple in it’s aa chain, and a cripple with #2. Can we get something else that would augment Magnet to add a condition (weakness?) and increase the bleeds of BoN? This would keep us safer in melee range and also put condition pressure on a target.

All things considered, I feel the first 2 swings of the auto attacks need a damage buff. I mean they only do about 75% of the bomb auto attack. Perhaps that could be a trait, I dunno. But I agree it needs another trait of two to buff it. Then again, so do gadgets.

I feel like the tool kit attack chain should be sped up a little. The damage from it is fairly good, but the fact that it takes so long to cycle means you’re better off spamming bomb 1 or nades for more dps. A melee attack after all should be stronger than the other options.

That may be a better solution to buffing the damage.
