Hey guys, could you tell me what you think of my PvE engi build?

Basically I rotate between grenade and rifle (when the 5 and 3 are off cd) and do damage. The static discharge works really well with the toolbelt skills. The rocket is a bit slow but if I fire it off when I’m near enemies it hits and deals a lot of damage.

I lay the turrets down for boss fights and then detonate them for extra SD procs.

What do you guys think?

i’d change rocket turret for bomb kit/ elixir gun/ a fast sd proc utility ( googles for instance). Apart from that, the build is solid.

Bombs and mines have a larger explosion radius but you have no bombs or mines.
The lack of group might is also disturbing.

I know that’s what I was worried about… but I generally find other classes have an easier time giving might to the group. I’m not very good at keyboard ‘dancing’ with the different kits etc.

Oops sorry! I thought it was grenades too… I’m kinda new to this… thanks for pointing it out Is shrapnel a good alternative then? And what about the battering ram for the slot instead of rocket turret?

The engi rotation is the hardest to master perfeclty imo. I play my ele half afk, and i must focus at 100% for my engi. Shrapnel is good in solo or if the group can’t cap bleeds, otherwise the 5% modifier is a thing ( although unreliable). If you can’t get the hang of bomb kit, i’d say go with either elixir gun (4 hits like a truck and you can use it in a fire field to stack might) or utility googles. Analyse is great, and fury is always nice to have. But bomb is still a better choice in most cases.
