Hello there fellow forum dwellers! Name’s Haasth and I produce videos, of which quite a number have been GW2 related and one of the latest was a guide for the Engineer elixir gun kit with what is easily my favourite build so far.
I figured some of you might be interested in this lovely condition spreading build so here it is! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf-lYhdhGNw&feature=g-u-u

It works wonders as a steady condition damage and support build for PvP and PvE.
It’s not for everyone but certainly one to try out!

may I give you some suggestions how you could improve this build even more (in the damage department)?

at some point stacking more condition damage is less efficient then getting condition duration. if you use 2 runes that would give you +15% bleed duration, your bleed from the elixir gun will last 5secs instead of 4 (10% from explosive tree + 15% => +25%) giving you another tick of damage for each bleed you apply. the next goal would be to increase the duration of the burn from the explosive tree to 3secs. for this just take napalm specialist in firearms and fill the last 4 slots of your runes with burn duration runes. burn is the strongest damage dealing condition thus it makes sense to increase the duration by another second.
