Guild Wars 2

Greetings Engineers!

I am in the process of compiling a list of guides for Engineers. This will be an ongoing project to bring you guys (and myself) as much info as possible about our glorious profession. Please keep in mind that some of these might be / become out-dated as patches are released. I will do my best to keep them as current as possible.

Valid as of 19 Sept 2012.

Reserved for further guides.

Thanks man, definitely a few good reads in there!

My pleasure, thank you for leaving a comment As I find more guides, I’ll be sure to sift through them to assure quality.

This is nice, and thanks for taking the time to compiling and posting this.

Roger that, thanks!

Shameless bump. Still scouring the internet for more guides and general info to help all you Engi’s out!

This looks good but just be careful that you make sure all your guides are up to date. Sleepytigerz guide for example is really out of date and doesn’t serve any real use to the community outside of generalities about the class and playstyles.

Yea, while I definitely would like to see a compilation, this thread kind of got my hopes up. GW2Engineer’s guide is also ancient. Half of the traits listed either have been merged or don’t exist any longer.

Thank you for the constructive feedback. I’ve removed links to the out-dated guides.

nice list i like it

Thanks! I’ll keep working on it and updating it as times go by and new patches are released.

New guides added today!

Very good idea man, good job

This is an awesome guide and needs to be stickied to the engineer forum. I was getting pwnded in PvP until I read the spvp rifle build. Now I’m doing the pwnage.

Thanks for the support! Much appreciated.

This post clearly deserves better than to be drowned.

As a new engineer myself seeing the descritions of different builds really helps on finding my own way.

wow just sorta randomly came across this. back to the top with you.

i only use shotgun and disables…
i dont rly like grenades due to short cd and vulnerability

this is very helpful, thank you Spitwyld.1963

The OP had a great idea, thumb up for a sticky

Keep it going upvote. Wait… never mind

This shouldn’t drop this far back.

thanks a lot man… I am a new Engineer and find this really helpful… specially cause I’m super confused with all the skills and kits that I have xD

gonna study a lot this guides

Thanks for this useful thread.

If anyone has got any new interesting guides, please post them.

Great collection of guides! Thanks!
