Guild Wars 2

We all know the class is pretty much out of the meta right now because celestial lacks pressure and condition lacks sustain.
Proposed changes:

Backpack regenerator heal increased by 30% and added heal and 1 condi remove on kit swap(10s icd).

Prybar inflicts 3s fear because it’s hard to land as it is.

Exploit weakness trait is useless right now. Rename it “tormenting powder” which works exactly like incendiary but with torment(5stacks only).

Jump shot is now 3s knockdown on the landing part.

Flash grenade also applies confusion(5 stacks only).

Box of nails should apply 1s reveal. Also removes 1 boon per pulse with first priority on stability.

Magnet fails a lot. Renamed “electromagnetic instability”. It’s now a 1/2s cast time teleport(interruptable). Only 1200 range to keep things balanced.

Net shot and glue shot apply 50% more immobilize.

Poison dart volley misses quite a lot too. Make it 360 degrees spin shooting bolts of poison. Whirl finisher.

Transmute now aditionally gives 5s of stability when inflicted with a damaging condition. Same icd and everything.

Thank you for reading!

Lol not really .

if box of nails gets reworked then what about box of piranhas?

3/10, too obvious

Why would you want to inflict fear with Pry Bar when the whole setup behind the toolkit is to stop your enemy from running away?

I’m afraid these changes still wouldn’t bring us back into the meta what we really need to become a competetive class again is grenades teleport to targets and are unblockable so we nades can actually do some damage.

I hope you are trolling. Engineer is the second best class atm , the first one is cele D/D ele. Unless you’re talking about hotjoins, then yes maybe but the game will not be balanced around hotjoins.

The only thing the Engi really need is condi removal. Add stun breaker to Elixir C or add a trait that we have a chance against terrormancer.

Sign @ Lupi .Thats the only problem the engie has to deal with .

Yep. Too obvious.
This is not the way to call attention, although I agree there is a problem.

Only things what engi needs right now are bug fixes and polishing of clunky stuff thats all.

Just lol. 33% uptime stability gg.
Another CC with 3 sec haha(overcharged shot with 15 sec is enough) on Rifle, cmon use your brain.
Also Netshot doesn´t needs a buff beacause 10sec cd is not that much.
Fear on Prybar another lol.
Confusion on Nades also silly op because we are still one of the best condispam profession.
Magnet needs the bugfixes, which are overdue.

What we need is more condiclean, such as 3 egun should clean our condis aswell, clean on regenerating mist, clean on kitswap(10 sec icd) what you said or something because now its nearly impossible to win against a nec without elite.

I lol’ed. Engineer is really strong in PvP atm. If anything Anet should focus on traits and utility skills that are never used and try to make them more viable.

You are so right! Their tactic to keep buffing unique and special builds(venomshare, turret, condition guardian) is a very healthy step towards a balanaced meta!
Also it doesn’t really feel like an MMO with just 5vs5 in PvP.
Thank god we have parrots, ogre dogs and other various A.I. to spice things up!
