been thinking about this since the update to conditions and so on, if i used sinister/beserker stats for a power/condition build but it work well in open world pve ?
eays might stacking with ft1 pluss conditon damage for burn would it be viable ?
i never do dungeons just the open world and story/living world stuff.
Im new to engineer but i enjoy the FT haha im a born firebug so yeah any help would be amazing
thank guys/gals

Yea, flamethrower Condi is solid for open world, but jades will probably be more effective for tagging mobs in big events with lots of mobs. You can Condi burst pretty quickly with Incendiay Ammo and the Incindiary Powder trait though.

I’d recommend doing something like HGH along with blasting fire fields for might and skipping juggernaut for IP though. You can stack a good bit of might with an elixir (Elixir U would probably be a good choice) and the elixir gun. Use 4 and 5 on EG then swap to flamethrower. You can press weapon swap mid air after using EG 4 if you don’t want to leap. Mortar’s not a bad elite for it either since mortar 5 is another elixir.

I’m currently using this build
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQFAUlcThqrYtWwdLQ7FL3FV4EGQZG4CGhBg4B9D5AA-TlSAABYcBAo4ACgz+Dnq+jaKB3S53MaIA4ABwnOgHeAABAQAM0hO0hO0hGA-w

Always use Toss Elixir H and B, shell elixir, acid bomb and super elixir for stackar might, always use the flametower and constantly you will have 25 stacks of might

This is what I’m currently using for maximum burns: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqalcThatYVVw6Kw6FLsF1YOOG/I4HWiBgYHVFPBA-TxhAABws/g0KBf28H0nAQPA1q/YtyPAeAAAA-e

Based on preference Elixir B can be replaced by Elixir U and Supply Crate can be replaced by Elixir X.

Absolutely

In fact, I run a burn FT PvE build on my engi. Runes of Balth, gear is mostly sinister with some carrion and some rabid, sigils are cheap, sigil of torment and the one that gives +20% burn duration (forgot its name).

I tag stuff with FT comperatively as good as my lootstick guard, situationally better.

For WvW switch up the traits some for perma stab on FT and of course switch up the gear. I run some dire, mostly carrion with some rabid, runes of melandru.

On a good zerg push slick shoes + incindeary ammo + FT is just so freagin OP. I need to hook up with one of these ETOM wiping guilds, bags for dayz ……
