Guild Wars 2

So, after playing this game for just under a year now (and no level 80 in sight, chronic main-giver-upper), I’ve decided to settle on an engineer. I love the playstyle, the big guns and the flamethrower!

However, since I’m a noob, what kind of things should I be looking out for gearwise? Like conditions, precision etc.? Should I get some extra vitality gear + traits because I’m a bit squishy?

Many thanks fellow cogheads!

I feel ya on give-upper, I constantly make new characters in games like Skyrim or Champions Online. So many options I just cant focus on one.

if you use the rifle and flamethrower then power will do fine. stats dont really matter until maybe 40+ if even that early.
The landmine was my best friend while leveling up, the short cooldown and knockback combined with the rifle’s net and over charged work very well.

Thanks very much for the feedback!

I have found it VERY efficient to grab a flamethrower and grenades and go to the crown pavilion. Join the zerg and level up super quick!
