I use my 80 boosts on my engineer as I found it the most fun for me to play as with it many kits and turrets there can use in battle. As the title said I would like to know what good turrets and/or kit build as I find I like to use this the most than other skills. The top skills I like are the Flamethrower kit, Greanded kit, Elite Mortar Kit, Rocket Turret, Rifle Turret, Flame Turret and Supply Crate. I haven’t tried the Elixir Gun or the Bomb Kit yet as the last time I haven’t try those was about two years a go and I don’t know if there now good or bad. Will I would like to focus on being a damage dealing this the kits and turrets, I wouldn’t mind have some healing power for the Med Kit and healing turtle when I’m in a pickle or that people around me need some healing. So what do guys think what traits should I use and what other tips do you have for a new Engineer? P.S I would like to know what the Scrapper and Gyro skills are like and are there any good?

Gyros are very mobile if that’s your playstyle go for it. Some people still like kits better.

Gyro require alot of movement and a timing that’s not seen with anything other than the healer turret for when events go off.

Some people like to combin turrets with Gyros for more condition fields you can actually create alot of shields from turrets and use Gyros for mobile boon applications. It’s pretty awesome what you can combine now.

Elixir gun is really for condi damage builds and healers. Bomb kit is more for bunker builds with alot of toughness and damage reduction traits.

So you can basically tank with an engi if you do it right with the bomb kit with loads of blinds and toughness and damage reduction with healing.

Bomb Kit… yeah, as much as I wouldn’t mind it for a pure Zerk/Assassin build, it’s really wasted on anything else. Power stacks very poorly for Engineer damage.

Better off just taking a bunch of armour and healing thyself, if you want to tank. Even if it takes a little while to kill things (Which it really doesn’t – Condi damage is currently ridiculous and the amount of Burn stacks you can get as an Engie puts those tosser Guardians to shame), a death of a thousand papercuts is still a death, ’innit?
