No i willnot whine, engineers are fun.

But, somehow they underperform a little, dps could be a bit better for glasscanons, but mainly there are some classmechanis that dont work as intended, espescially in PvP, which makes us the least played class.

Turrets, should either become more mobile (give a trait that reduces turrets cooldown by 75% when a turret is picked up. Or bring turret dps on par with mesmer phantasm dps. For coolnes add engineer backitems that also change the look of your turrets based on a theme.

Weapon kits, are somewhat underpowered because somehow theyhave no weapon stats,so they shouls add an engineer item that can be equiped in your currently unused 2nd weaponslot. Adding weaponstats and sigils to your chosen kit. Also changing the appearance of all your kits based on a theme, this way our kits could have a legendary look to them.

We are the only class that has no standard mellee weapon, with the extra damage done by mellee ranged weapons and tbe fact that we can not choose a mellee weapon to create a shortrange build inconjunction with the toolkit and bombs without being forced to equip a toolkit, we really need a mellee weapon option in the future to eqiip in our weaponslot.

Our elites with the exception of supply kit (tough id love to see anoption to make the elite kit turrets explode like normal turrets do) but mortar is way to situational, and elixer X is unpredictable with its randomness, becaue you never know what youre gonna get, and randomness only fits asura engineers but not the other races. Tough with elixer x they should just combine both forms and bring its usefullnes on par withother elite skills.

With some attention it should be possible to bring engineers on par with other classes, without promoting them to the new fotm class. There are enough good ideas on these boards to create a balancedbugged free engineer, but then there are also alot of bad ideasthat would make us Op as hell
