Guild Wars 2

Hey guys,

my engineer is lvl 80 now and before I want to start WvW I want to be in a good position in PvE and Dungeons first.
Therefore I need a build, that fits my playstyle and is furthermore versatile and viable in any PvE content.

What I like:
- mobility
- medium/good dmg
- diversity (use of many skills)
- some escape and dmg mitigation options
- only a bit group support

Since there are so many setups, may someone help me to find the right ones to start with? Some where I can craft the armor and learn how to play an engineer.
Later on, I might just play HGH in WvW but first of I want to get to know the engineer a bit more!
Thanks in advance

I use the gear setup, full knight armor and jewelry.
With a Valkyrie Rifle.
Heal/elite/utility skills:
Elixir H
Elixir B/ or S if you want some more defence
Bombkit/ or Toolkit for more defence
Flamethrower
Supply Crate

Traits i’m useing 20/30/0/20/0
Explosives:
Incendiary Powder or Forceful Explosives ( depending on AoE heave fights )
Enhance Performance
Firearms
Sitting duck (when mostly useing Rifle) / Precise Sights (useing Flamethrower)
Go for the eyes (rifle in mind) / Napalm Specialist (Flamethrower in mind)
Juggernaut
Alchemy
Fast-Acting Elixirs
Cleaning Formula 409 (condition heavy fights) / Deadly Mixture (Flamethrower)

You can play around with the traits more, but i use this build with Fotm level +10 without any problems
and use rampager armor when solo farming. does great damage in my eyes without dieing.

thanks for your nice setup.
At the top you state using all knight armor, later you mention rampager – you use both?

I use rampager armor when useing flamethrower/solo mostly with might stack runes + duelpistol with sigil of earth/strength, and sigil of fire when AOE event farming, with sigil of accuracy.
I use the knight armor with Rune of Altruism when in group for dungeons, with a valkyrie Rifle with strength sigil.
You can even use the berserker armor set with knight jewelry with the flamethrower and bomb kit, power is mostly the best for anything.. just that i tend to lean over to condition with the pistols :P
