Engi build - opinions
-you are building for condi damage, so don’t use a soldier shield or trait toughness to power. you also don’t have a lot of ways to apply conditions. you’re going to want to use abilities that apply a lot of bleeds/burns to do decent condi damage especially since with apothecary gear you won’t have stellar condi stats. bomb kit, rocket boots, grenade kit, flamethrower all apply good burns and/or bleeds.
-you have a lot of healing gear but not many ways of healing people. maybe slot an elixir gun in there.
-you’re going to need formula 409 if you want to remove condis with elixirs. and since you’re using multiple elixirs, you may want to use the 20% cd reduction trait.
Ups, i already have those traits, selected wrong in the build editor (20% cd reduction and 409).
I usualy use elixir b/elixir gun (swap when needed), and as for the shield i’m planning to change it pretty soon (need to get some mats to craft another one).
Also from what i’ve seen the flamethrower is kind of a b***h in wvw (retaliation kinda kills you fast).
Thank you for the opinions, still learning the class and adapting.
