New to Engineers, is there a good pvp or wvw rifle build?
Especially that takes post feature pack changes into account (if applicable)?

the only thing i changed in my sig build was adding sigil of generosity (which has dramatically increased my survivability versus condi bunkers). the poison nade and ferocity nerfs kinda hurt it, but only to make stalemates out of a few matches that shouldve been stalemates anyways.

Hi OP,
The build below is very popular nowadays. You can also use Elixir Gun instead of Elixir S.
I believer this build would work for WvW as well, with some adjustments.

Been using a slight modification of the engi celestial rifle build. It’s a really good balanced build with survivability, good direct and condi damage.

Edit: the staple engi celestial rifle build is the one garythesnail posted.

With the introduction of celestial, it allows a mix and match of condi and direct damage and cc to be possibly more effective that full on condi. Pistol and shield can give more condi damage but it’ll always have the weakness of condi cleanse. Having a variety of options (directdmg/cc/condi) allows you to pressure you opponent in many different ways and turns out to be more consistently useful for most situations.
