I’ve run a lot of different builds and have about 6 different armor sets, I have used straight power builds, straight condi builds, and hybrid builds. Personally for roaming in wvw I prefer hybrid because it gives me a better range of options for dealing with opponents.
Normally for hybrid damage I use a P/S 3 kit perplex build with carrion armor, but recently I’ve been wanting to try something with rifle and hgh.
But anything different and interesting that uses hybrid damage I am interested in trying.
And do you think celestial armor and/or trinkets would be a good idea.

tl;dr
I like hybrid damage for roaming but wanna use rifle know of any good or interesting builds?

I mostly use p/p, but yea, hybrid (carrion) adds way more pressure than anything else for an engineer, while still having one defensive stat. I wish that at some point they add power/cd/toughness gear to the game.
I don’t really know any rifle hybrid builds, I think I saw one by ukuni not long ago?

Then I guess i have to pioneer something…
I put my rifle on while wearing my condi gear recently for the ranged knockback and it confused the hell out of a mesmer, dude had no idea what to dodge. which is what gave me this idea in the first place.

This is the build I currently run based off of Itkoviana’s nade build in his video with intigo

The build works pretty well 1v1 and in group fights. Usually this build should be used by kiting and keeping some space between yourself and your opponent. It uses med kit over turret because it allows you to stack a pretty decent amount of might while gaining fury. Downside is this build has a rough time with condis. Only 1 condi clear and it can’t cure immobs. It also doesn’t have much healing. These cons make it so 1vx is pretty rough. Any suggestions are welcome as I’m tired of condi tank builds.
