Hiya – With the upcoming SoloQ patch, I am looking to get back into tPvP. For whatever reason, Engy has always been my preferred class in PvP, so I am looking to find out which roles the Engy is currently filling well.

I assume HGH condition spam grenadier is still doing well, albeit slightly overshadowed by Necros now. Are Engy bunkers doing well these days? If so, can any link me a good bunker build or a site that has good Engy info?

Unfortunately the forum search feature still appears broken, so I’m not able to dig up much info presently.

The most enjoyable role for engineer (as you could see from EU qualifiers for PaX) are those of roamer / defender / point (de)cap.

Instead of trying to do what a necro can (and he does it way better as he got the tools needed for the job), you should play to the strengths of engineer – perma vigor + swiftness, 2 blocks and 1 reflect, several knock backs, confussion, high condi dmg, both ranged and melee options, best sustain in game (healing turret + combos depending on situation) etc. It’s also what makes (for me) the engineer most enjoyable class in tpvp.
