Guild Wars 2

So after running into a couple of one on one fights I have come to the conclusion that condition damage seems to be superior to crit damage with the engineer. I have been constantly practicing zerker engineer and switching out pieces of ascended accessories for Power Toughness Ferocity here and there to the point I actually live in combat and don’t get one shotted by a backstab.

The issue is that I had to use a rocket turret, a thumper turret, and a crate to kill a thief. It felt great to finally win, but this makes me kinda question whats going to happen next with turrets. Actually kinda started winning a couple fights against mesmers when popping turret with smoke field for invisibility.

After this, it seems like bomb damage may have been reduced or overall damage as a whole has been reduced. With fully charged bloodlust on average I’m hitting for 1k less than what I was before. Either alot of people are stacking on more toughness or something happened to the power.

i recommend knight over cavalier because engi doesnt have strong crit chance traits

edit: i also recommend not using any turret besides healing turret

1v1 condition is gonna rock most man. Knights is definitely a better look then full zerk. You need the added toughness to survive those thieves and other zerk builds. I have been playing this class for almost 2 years now and i just cant seem to make full zerk really work outside of some sexy 2 hit montages hehe. Knights armor/ mix zerk/sold trinkets worked for me. recently went full zerk trinkets for extra damage im slowly getting better at blocking/dodging but nothing easy about it. If you want “easier” go full soldiers you can survive like a champ in that stuff but your damage really does become kinda mediocre
