Guild Wars 2

This is closer to what I suspect Rifles should’ve been like for GW2. More like a shotgun imo (minus all the elemental blasting this thing does) Our regular shots should have been bigger shots like the torpedos we shoot underwater i suspect. Right now making it a hybrid rifle shotgun really doesn’t do much for it. The damage is too low for the slow speed and the weird 4/5 abilities.

Now I know what everyones going to say “this is not the same type of game” however, making the rifle a shotgun for the engineer would definitely improve it overall and remove the confusion causing it to not do enough damage as it sits now. The pellet gun it is right now isn’t helping so we need something with a lot more oomph.

Screw the cannon, give me spammable homing spider mines!

at least moving shooting bots instead of turrets would be nice i mean we got mini golems and golems why wouldnt they fit in the game technology wise. theres even airships and choppers and helicopters and tanks, and why cant engis have cannons instead of bombs fixing the grenade problems the terrible aiming odds with targeting and dealing actual damage without losing mobility.

they wouldn’t even need to go to something that extreme. the blunderbuss could just be turned into a burst that would do just as much as warrior’s Volley, but at close range.

And an engineer doing as much damage as a warrior would be bad how? considering they’ve nerfed engis into oblivion while two classes one of them the warrior still enjoys one shotting everything with their rifles. From where I’m sitting they either need a nerf or we need a shotgun to blow some zombie heads off in Orr.

I think that warrior need to have shotgun, while engi gets the sniper rifle.

This is more fair. Cause warrior has more hp and armor AND longer rifle range. Really no logic in this.

And they can swap between rifle and close range weapons in combat.
