Guild Wars 2

Hello fellow engineers!

I’ve tried the engineer time and time again and could never really get into it, but recently I’ve decided to roll one again and for whatever reason I’m finally enjoying it. I’ve attempted to look through as many builds as I possibly could, and while this may have already been posted hundreds of times over (sorry if it has been!) I wanted to get the community’s input particularly about one trait choice: Incendiary Powder VS. Forceful Explosives.

Both would work equally well with this setup, but I do feel like my bombs sometimes miss the target due to range issues, so Forceful Explosives would certainly help with that, but then I’d also lose the potential burning damage that really shines in crit/condition builds. Also, this build is NOT for sPvP, it’s for PvE and WvW (I’ve yet to be able to really test it to it’s full potential so this is really theoretical).

Khaotic Engineer Build

What are your thoughts?

Your build is perfectly fine as is , bombs arent nearly as effective without that added radius , its like picking grenades without Grenadier trait (sort of) . You have enough burning as is esp with you running P/P lol.

Props to you for running quad-kits, that’s pretty ballsy. On that note, I think that you’d be fine without one of those cooldown reduction traits. With so many skills as it is, your skills would probably already be recharged by the time you cycled through all the skills you needed.
