Hello fellow engis, i have a question tout ask :
I’m someone who changes build very often, and I never stay a long time on the same traits/utilities. Unfortunately, I can’t afford to buy a different exotic set for each build. What kind of gear should I take to make the most of All the engi’s tools, for pvE and WvW alike ? Thank you in advance !

In my opinion, the way to do this would be to get as much Power, Condition Damage and Healing Power as possible, with a respectable (and mostly equal) amount of Toughness and Vitality. Not sure about the type of stuff, but those’re the abilities you’ll want to maximize.

Power Vitality Toughness in that case.

Probably the soldier or sentinel set. Plus celestial runes/trinkets to make changing specs easier.

So, i should mix Soldiers with Carrion/Apothecary/Rabid ? Or just go soldiers all the way ? I don’t want to limit myself to power, i feel like i’ll need some cond-damage if i want to use everything…

Another question in the same note ?
If i could have two different sets of armor(like, one for condition, one for pure damage), what would they be ?

My personal opinion is that if you are trying to cover everything in 1 set you will most likely just end up gimping yourself.

I’d rather suggest you go for 1x power and 1x cond set.

Go for Rabid! Rabid is allways a good solid pick!

A mix of Berserker and Valkyrie set (runes of your choice) for pure damage, and full Rabid with Runes of the Undead if looking for simple yet devastating condition damage.

And to be honest, if you have these two sets of armor, you’re pretty much set for any build.

I’m liking my Rabid. If not that, Apothocary for a little more support.
