Hello to all.

Is there a good way for an Engineer to Level in terms of focusing on a specific aspect? Is there an “easy mode” leveling build like there has been for other classes?

Bomb Kit = easy mode
The other utility’s are up to you (I recommend Rocket Boots and/or Slick Shoes)

The Idea is to constantly be moving, pull a large pack of mobs and kite kite kite leeaving little suprises for them as they chase you.

First 10 points into Explosives for Forceful Explosives
Next 10 points into Tools for Speedy Kits
Then just putt 10 points into Alchemy for Invigorating Speed

The rest of the points you can place wherever you like for leveling it wont matter and it largely depends on what other utilities you take.

This is my PvE build (not dungeons btw)

Bomb kit is a good one for early leveling.

When you hit 40 you can try out Flamethrower & Elixir Gun. Get Fireforged Trigger (I) and Juggernaut (VIII) in the Firearms line. Then work on Alchemy until you can get Deadly Mixture (VII). This will give you a fun set of tools to burn enemies down with and keep yourself alive. Also, gives you experience with these 2 kits. Elixir Gun is viable in kitten near every build.

At 60 you can finally give Grenade Kit a go. Now you can pick up the Grenadier trait (XI) in Explosives, which makes grenades hit really hard. I also recommend picking up Shrapnel (II) and Short Fuse (VIII). I’d use the rest of my trait points to either put 30 into Firearms for Modified Ammo (XI) and some pistol/rifle enhancement or 30 into Alchemy for survival, depending on what your playstyle requires.

• i used grenade/bomb/rocket boots for leveling even before i got grenadier. didn’t really have a problem with 2/3 grenades.
• get 10 in tools for speedy kits for fast traveling asap. i got it before i put any points in explosives. swiftness is just too good.
• FT is also good even untraited. the cc and decent aoe dmg it brings helps.

ps just discovered i can bullet
