Guild Wars 2

Is there a way to balance that blatantly OP elite? I feel like engineer PvP power only survive with this skill!

Every engineer I fight has it as auto-cast! (Joke haha)

Maybe the net turret should be removed for something less harming like the rifle turret. Or the bandage removed because its actually a second heal!

Anyway I know engi doesnt have other viable elite. But considering some class doesnt have any viable elite (Hum elementalist), It’s only fair too brought down that elite that carries engi since launch!

So, because some other classes don’t have viable elites, you want to nerf the only viable one for Engineers? Why not, I don’t know, buff or redesign the nonviable into viable elites? Because it’s easier? That’s the stupidest way to balance anything.

You just keep getting beat by engineers with Supply Crate in PvP, don’t you?

how does a 180 s elite carry someone, it may help out and turn 1 fight, but thats about it, if u r roaming, once the supply crate lands, enemy will move away from it right away, so its only useful in the first few seconds there(remember, 180s cdd), in pvp its a rly nice aoe stun, but turrets die right away to aoe anyway(well unless its a specced turret engi, but turret engis r easily outplayed in high tier pvp).

and pve? well… its a blast finisher.. nice .. 180 s cd. gg

im not saying its trash, actually it turns the fight for the first 1-5 seconds, but its useless afterthat

some examples of more awesome elites: moa of mesmers turns fights, its basically a 10 s cc (easy to dodge, but u know, they can use it in stealth etc), revive banner of war (turns the fights to a rly unfair extend, remember, pvp isnt balanced around 1v1), every elite of ranger is useful, well thief, basilisk is a nice stun every 40 s i guess.. ?, ele has fgs for mobility, and thats rly actually a pretty awesome elite, and is understimated by a lot of ppl. , guardian has 2 out of 3 useful elites (support tome and the invuln virtue reset thingy)

given its long cool down, the ease of destroying its turrets, and how easy it is to interrupt, I hardly would call that OP, unless I was salty from losing to an engineer that is.

Personally, I fell that if you want to nerf elites, you should start with rangers and thieves. Their elites are much more problematic then supply crate.

You seems to not realize how this elite turns the tide in a fight… No other elite is that OP except maybe the lich form.But that lich form is a big “TARGET ME”.

plague form, highly defensive, spams blinds like hell and make it impossible to fight in a point

Engineers that use supply crate in a 1v1 are bad, and if you lose to them you’re probably bad too.

No gd engi would crate in a 1vs1, I’d only do it vsing something like condi necro, or if i’m low and someone jumps me. You say crate is op fair enough, but look at all the elites you can do very often, just because crate has a heavy effect its op? Once every 180 seconds we can use it, if the engi really needs the crate to vs you then next time you see em you’d most likely destroy em. Most professions can use their elites every 45-60 seconds, make use of that.

Are you being dishonest with yourself or us? Daggerstorm absolutely turns the tide. Especially against ranged builds.

Warriors banner can change the tide of the largest fights in the game. Effecting infinitely more people in the long run.

Spirit of nature and entanglement are much more impaction to a group. Unless you lack skill as a ranger.

Time warp is extremely tide changing in many situations.

sure remove net turret and replace it with Thumper ill be ok with that

Crate should just drop 5 net turrets that stack bleeds every tic.

If you miss the stun, supply crate means nothing. Second heal or not, its not OP>
