Guild Wars 2

Hello, I wanted to go for a Power Engineer in WvW. without going into specifics, what lines would be best for going into if I wanted to be balanced between Offense and Defense, and what toolkits and weapon would I use. I would primarily roaming of course. If anyone can help me (or) deter me from this would be great. I honestly don’t like condition builds for any class and I wanted to play a class I rarely see these days.

You can just go full glass SD, but i like it being balanced

Thank you

Could you please give some advice how you fight condition bunkers or cc heavy specs with this build? I see only 1 condi removal every 15 seconds that requires 3 actions (swap, drop, walk over it), no stunbreak and the only defensive trait is aegis every 15 seconds .

this is what i run

Honestly any engi build is gonna have a hard time with condi clear. You could swap rocket boots for elixir C, but eh :/

Your defense comes from your very high armor. Rarely are engis able to walk around with 3k armor, and still get really high dmg stats. Reduced toolkit cd gives you a 3sec block every 16 sec which is HUGE. Combined with all the CC its really not so bad
