Guild Wars 2

I’ve been thinking a lot about the racial skills of the Charr. My engineer is a Charr, and I really want to make use of those skills to have a more unique build. Here’s a summary of them for those who aren’t familiar:

Battle Roar

Gives 2 stacks of might (15s) and 6s of fury to you and nearby allies. It’s basically a toned down “For Great Justice!”. It’s not that great on its own, but it does come with the toolbelt Invigorating Roar, which removes Weakness and Vulnerability from nearby allies AND gives 10s of Vigor to them and you, which is really nice. It has a 50s cooldown.

Hidden Pistol

Evade backward (3/4s) while firing a concealed pistol. It also comes with a burst Toolbelt skill, Hidden Pistols, that hits 8 times and deals moderate damage.

Shrapnel Mine

Inflicts crippled (5s), and bleeding (20s). The Toolbelt is Booby Trap, which puts a charge on you that explodes and inflicts 3 stacks of bleeding (10s) if you get hit by a melee attack.

As I said, I really want to use these in a build, especially Battle Roar. Does anybody have any builds or thoughts on these skills?

I’m thinking that Hidden Pistols could be used in a crit proc build, but otherwise I’m not really sure.
