Hi all,

So just a little bit of background – I’ve played an Engineer and an Engineer only since the release of GW2. I have tried other classes and just can’t get into them resulting in Engineer is life mode. I have worked my a** off for H.O.P.E and have memorised the condition rotation (hardest rotation in the game) to a point where I don’t even think about it. Now, please don’t think of this as me gloating, I just want to show you how MUCH I freaking LOVE the Engineer class. I’ve played every MMORPG under the sun, but because of the Engineer class I have never even thought of playing another mmorpg in the past 5 years.

Now, I personally think the Holosmith is by far the best Elite spec announcement. I absolutely love it. Engineers have finally learnt to harness the power of the sun and use it to their advantage in battle.

One of the things I loved about the Engi is they were the least played class (before Rev’s came along). I’ve always enjoyed mastering the underdog. So that leaves me to this one question;

“Are you worried that everyone will jump to the Engineer class now and claim it as their main just because of Holosmith? I really don’t want to see thousands of Engi’s coming out the woodworks just because of this. I feel like if they didn’t love the Engineer since day one, they can keep their mitts off the Holosmith!” Lol.

Please take this with a pinch of salt. Discuss!

I’m in the same boat as you: I love engineer so much that no other class measures up to it for me. The holo-smith’s theme is totally my jam, and I’m excited to see it in action!

Playing the underdog also appeals to me, but it doesn’t diminish my enjoyment of the class if folk start flooding the servers with holosmiths. Complaining about it in that respect sounds too close to “Ugh, they made holosmith look TOO cool!” for comfort, lol.

I have a friend wich is exactly interested to role Engineer for this reason, shes a rev main, but she feels that the new spec was the last nail in the coffin and now she wants to role something new.

That said, i bet many people will go back and leave engi after some months of gameplay, if they enjoy it, hey, we might have won new engi members, otherwise they are just tourists testing the new shiny stuff.

PvP Rifle Engi player no matter how dark the meta is.

Are you worried that everyone will jump to the Engineer class now and claim it as their main just because of Holosmith?

Nope.

People aren’t going to learn one of the already most complicated classes just to play something that looks vaguely cool.

Only in PvP/WvW.

In PvE it’s easy comparatively. Still more difficult than most classes, but nowhere near Engineer difficult.

Yeah, they aren’t kit-dancing. They’re pushing a button to swap every fifteen seconds, not even microsecond.
