Engineer WvW roaming
Watch out for condi builds otherwise have fun taking names.
If you want something relatively hard try a multi kit build…probably something like nades bombs and tool kit. If you can master that well you’ll be a very scary roaming engie. Personally when I roam I take the easier way out and take rocket boots, elixir s and tool kit :S but to answer your question, they are good roamers.
This is what I’ve been roaming with:

You can swap Elixir S for Slick Shoes to combo with magnetic pull.
You can also swap tool kit for bomb kit or elixir gun. Or maybe run 3 kits.
The good thing about this build is that every kit fits it well, so you can choose whatever you like.
I am actually more concerned about PU mesmers. I can’t manage to lock them down to use bombs/nades, and often my bombs/nades kill their clones applying lots of conditions on me while they are hiding themselves.
I don’t have many probs vs cond PU mesmers. Just aoe down the illusions and that’ll reduce their damage and cover conds. Save HT/EG 5 for torment/confusion.

a pu mes cant kill you unless you let him. if hes a power build, kill the clones so he doesnt shatter. if hes a condi build, just keep moving the fight away from the clones. and he has limited condi removal.
you can easily control the fight, and all he can do is survive it.

Incredibly rewarding.
Highly frustrating.
