Engineer wish list.
The reasonable list;
- Buff our #2 downed skill or replace it with something helpful outside TPvP.
- Remove the self-knockdown on Rifle #5 Overcharged Shot and on the Rocket Boots gadget.
I like these too. Our down state is imo the weakest in game. Putting #3 (booby trap) in #2 spot would be a nice change. Maybe make the empty slot drop a healing turret instead. Just some thoughts. The grapple doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me. Why would you want to pull a mob closer to you , unless it’s to use Booby Trap. Or maybe make the grapple ground targeted, and instead of pulling a mob to you, you pull yourself out of the area you are in.

Another suggestion would be for toolkit to repair WvW sieges, like it does our turrets. This would give us the option to help out our teams in an impacted way like the mesmer does with portals. Just a thought.
1. Fix poison valley i want it to hit with all shots not 1/2.
2. FIX THE TURRETS!. We are engineers we build things and yet our turrets are a complete joke. It takes one class to come in and aoe and they are all gone.
3. Remove all of our current elites skills and give us something else. No but seriously our elite skills are completely crap. Mortar has less range then the grenade kit it is not affected by our stats so on and so on. Our elixr x sounds cool until you realize that it just gives you crap damage is low and it is soooooooo random. For supply crate please look at #2.
4. Give us some engineer looking armor! I can were the medium armor but i don’t want to look like a thief. I want some metal looking armor with the face mask and fully decked out armor.
5. Fix turrets.
Yes number 2 and 5 are the same but they are broken and are completely under powered. So i hope the next patch will address this issue.
@Destac
Try the Sorrow’s Embrace armor, it’s very engineer in my opinion.
As for my wish list…
1. Flamethrower to have 5 completely viable skills. We’re almost there, just need one-one and a half more and we’re good. (Smoke vent ought to do -something- in pvp, rather than just show as a red do for a second before it’s gone to an auto attack)
2. Grenade auto-attack. So much clicky, it’s like playing D3/Torchlight 2.
3. Turrets to be something useful when placed, that would make enemies rethink jumping into that engy’s house. Don’t care how, just needs done.
4. More intuitive elixirs. Or, more intuitive thrown elixirs. RNG is great in pve, but in pvp it just makes things annoying. Elixir S is the biggest example, always gives stability when you need stealth, and stealth when you need stability. There are almost no situations (besides stomping) where those two buffs are interchangeable.
5. Gear shield visible when tool kit is equipped. Most minor thing ever, but magically appearing giant gear always bugged me for some reason.
6. Gadget changes so that a gadget build would be useful. Don’t care how, just need it.
7. Toggle back-pack skins on/off. The excuse that you need to see them in pvp is fine, make it client-side only. I’m just sick of seeing the same hobo-sacks that don’t fit with my armor colors.
8. Base attack damage on par with other classes. I mean the removal of the damage tax entirely, as time has shown us no more versatile than any other class.
9. Quip should turn grenades into bananas. That would be awesome.
10. A class specific dance that shows off our innate awesomeness. (I’m thinking the creep.)
Grenades faster.
Glue Shot much faster. Range 700 and real slow flying of the glue is bad.
New sounds for weapons. I want a desert eagle sound for pistols and a real shotgut sound for rifle.
1. reduce/remove knockdown from Rocket Boots escape.
2. make Glue Shot last longer
3. lower Gadget CDs
4. make Grenade #1 auto-target and path like arrows
5. move endurance regen trait lower in tree
I just want an elite skill that produces a mountable Mech >.>
Got me an Asuran Engi so….I got one o’ those.
