I’m currently making an engineer, HGH with dual pistols. I’m moving over from my mesmer because…It’s become too easy for me. I can look away from the screen and think to myself happily “Eh, no one’s gonna get me.” (PS; Mesmer is the only class i’ve played for the past 4 months)

I need more of a challenge, and when I tried out Engineer I have to say, I fell in love with the class, all the goofyness of it, and it’s something where you’ve got to be aware of whats happening.

On that note my quest for Sunrise diverted and became a quest for Quip, which i’ve almost got now! So with one hurdle down, it’s the next, which jewellery to get.

I’ve got a Speakers Dawncord which gives me Precision/Toughness/Condition damage.

For my accessories I was thinking to go with a Molten Ore (Power/Precision/Toughness) and a Marriners Flask (Precision/Toughness/Condition Damage)

For my rings i’d go with 2 x Rabid Rings, but i’m not sure whether to go with 1 x Rabid and another “Of the knight” (Precision/Power/Toughness)

I’d go with a Rabid Fractal Capacitor also as my backpiece.

In terms of armour, I was thinking I should go with Vatlaaw’s armour which has Rabid stats as well, runes I wasn’t so sure of!

With my weapons i’ll be having a Quip (Which gives Power/Toughness/Vitality) so I imagine that a Rabid weapon would go better on the side here?

This is all just my thoughts, i’ve not played the engineer for long and i’m at level 41 after about 5 days. Thought i’d come here for some thoughts. Thank you in advance! Have fun playing!

Look at Maskaganda’s video threads. He runs Pistols and Pots (duel pistol + HGH) and his gear has been discussed several times.

And here we are, directing people finally trying out the Engineer directly to what they do best and literally scrapping the stuff they’d have probably signed up for.

The world doesn’t turn around HGH and 409. If anything, you’re more than welcome to try anything that comes through your mind because they all serve a good purpose, even is situationnal.

Well is there any other builds you’d suggest revolving around dual pistols? I’d love to hear some, I see some people attempting full Power/Pre/Toughness builds but i’m not sure about them.

Well, there are. They aren’t as popular as ehm.. you know what, but they have the advantage of being highly customizable.

It’s powered with Giver weapons and Rabid gear for maximum efficiency. The Immobilize from the Net Turret is boosted by condition duration bonuses, with a Veggie Pizza you can reach 5s of Immobilize per shot, it includes the Tool Belt skill, the Turret itself (even more efficient when overcharging it) and the Net Turret from the Supply Crate.

You get Vigor whenever you switch between the two kits you have, reduced cooldown on your F1 heal thanks to the traits and an extra cooldown reset when reaching 25% health.

And… You’re free to make some slight changes between traits and even the utility skills themselves, if not happy with the Net Turret, an eventual Bomb Kit can go there, or a pair of Slick Shoes.

The problem will be condition damage, only one removal which is found inside the Med Kit, you could also replace the Sigil of Corruption with one of Purity or Generosity but that’s definitely not 409 material.

Now, I definitely appear disgruntled toward HGH and all that, but you’re by no means forbidden to try anything out.

Um, no. He said he was building duel-pistol and HGH. He didn’t suggest he was looking to sign up for anything else so I answered the question he asked. If you care to offer other suggestions that’s fine but knocking people for answering the asked question seems odd.
