Guild Wars 2

So tonight I was in wvw and I ran into another engineer with the flameseeker prophecies. THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE. So I killed him. Other then that I am glad to see someone else is as mad as me.

Thank you for this thread

You are very welcome. Anyone else out there have the shield? Would love to see your character.

There are dozens of us! DOZENS! I just finished the shield earlier this week!

…Ninjineer? :O

I’m very strongly considering it for my engineer, given the limited options we have for Legendaries.

Please don’t murder me too terribly if/when I do get it.

It’s a very nice legendary, completely animated and all that, but does it seem very Engineer-ish? I mean maybe the book, genius and all that.

I got Quip cause I’m just a troll engineer lol

Shield looks horrible on us. The whole book thing is silly looking for anything but maybe the guardian.

So you like guardians?

I like it looks awesome on my engineer.

Weirdo’s in this thread. Just weirdo’s.

That shield is terrible for any TRUE engineers. You guys are just seeking attention trying to be “different”.

WTB Legendary gear shield.

Im working on the legendary shield right now (about half ways). I already finished Quip.
At first i thought quip was lame and dumb, but it really is kind of fun once you get it.
I will admit it can destroy your image of cool and serious roleplay, but using it every once in a while makes ppl smile Im not sure if Quip and Flameseeker add up in effects or anything but i will let you know if i find out :P

Anyway Engi’s choise for legendary is either a sniper rifle (with shotgun skills) A clownsgun or a Shield with a book glued to it. So if i use a clownsgun might as well have funny shield next to it

Anyway, legendary are still awsome in effects, even if they dont add to your personal taste. BTW you dont HAVE to use them.

You just convinced me to delete my engineer. I’m going to make a greatsword warrior, get CoF armor, and make Twilight. Thanks for opening my eyes.

It’s not that the shield looks bad, it actually looks pretty cool.
But it doesn’t say ‘engineer’ to me. Not at all.

It says ‘priest, paladin, shining knight on a mission…’ etc to me, in other words: guardian in this game.

Cool shield, but they should make one that screams ‘engineer’.
but than again: they should do that for a lot of the gear options…

It really is the only possibility I consider for my Engineer.. not sure if I can pull it off being a Charr engi with SE armor. Hmm.. You definately look great. I, like many, do want more Legendaries!

The shield is cool but I don’t think it fits the engineer model though. Plus who would put a book on a shield?? I feel like its going to be ripped/burned/disintegrated if I try to block with it. :X

Not if it’s all, “Pew pew, ignorance! I repel you with the power of knowledge!”

It’s where we write down our alchemy formulae and blueprints for turrets.

I’m using a silly basic shield.
Simply because it’s one of the few darn shields out there that says ‘engineer’ to me.

Picture attached, not for bragging rights since it’s a low level basic piece of junk… but to show what I mean with ‘engineer’ looking.

So, apply the skin to high level shield.

I might consider the legendary shield, but the verdant shield just looks too good with my Sylvari Engineer. Don’t think I’ll ever replace that skin!

On a side note, I didn’t think it would but the Quip looks really good on my Sylvari Engineer. And as cheesy as I thought it was, it kinda grows on you.

Melting enemies down one minute with the flamethrower, shooting daisies and confetti at their corpse the next!

Duh

The ‘stats’ shield is exotic.
But the ‘looks’ shield is just the basic one.
I meant that in a game where looks are most of the ‘endgame’ it’s a bit silly that the most engineer looking shield I found, was an actual common blue…

I’m surprised no one mentioned this lil’ gem here. It’s the most engineer-y looking thing for me, at least. It matches my gear, too.

Asura Tier 3 Shield:

Asura Tier 3 Shield:

I guess it happens to depend on what kind of engineer look you are going for, steampunk or futuristic.

Then what would my Engineer be?

Shirtless

Just as planned

I used the tier 3 asuran shield until i got the chosen

Asura Tier 3 Shield:

This is what I use for my Asura.

Other than the eye-patch-goggle thing, can someone link me a bunch of armor that actually DOES look VERY steam punk ish? I haven’t run into any good stuff that i’ve seen

Not ‘VERY’ but just a little, if you play with the colors a bit…
The whisper’s gear has some possibilities. But it’s not a real steampunk set of course. It’s the closest I can achieve though.

Ahh that does look a little like it, thanks

How you get order of whispers pistol and vigil coat?

Penguin.5197:

Neither of those looks are complemented by the FSP, imo. It’s a great looking shield, but personally I don’t like it for engineers.

You need characters in those orders. Then you transmute them onto a cheap skin off the tp. This will make it account bound. Then the character you want to use the skin can transmute it onto whatever they want.

So while on the topic of shields and you guy’s are clearly some good shielders

Can you guys post your shield builds? Or post some shield builds in general?

Atm I run p/p but am really wanting to try out and love p/s. One of the main reasons I play Eng is that I have this problem with MMO’s where I need to be the underdog / least played. Fortunately in this case I have come to LOVE the eng. and the idea of p/s being even more rare is exciting. Especially if it’s viable and I like it!

Any advice and builds would be veryy appretiated!!!

Thank you!

I have that everytime I transmute something it becomes soulbound though… Not account. :/

All those shields look horrible.. sorry

Your face looks horrible

I love the pancake faced charr on the right If I ever make a third charr I would definitely give him that face, not enough charrs have it! (Too bad they didnt give the option to female charrs or I wouldve given it to her)

(Back on topic) Yeah a simple silver shield somehow looks engineerish too, especially if it has a gear drawn. That reminds me I use an iron legion shield once in a while I think it looks engineerish too
