Guild Wars 2

Will the arenanet developers ever make a choice wether they want engineer to be a condition damage or physical damage class? Has anyone else noticed rifle is weak if you would like to build a condition damage build.

is this a complaint?

After making my engineer class on launch day and only playing to level 20 I’ve just started to play past level 20 and I find the class to be jumbled like the developers could not decide to make engineer a tank or healer or dps or what type of dps. I’ve found when developers for rpg games try to make a Jack of all trades class the class ends up broke and under powered in all class roles

Yet there are 5 new threads every day in the PvP sub forums claiming the engineer is ridiculously OP.

I don’t see how this is an issue! The Warrior greatsword is pretty terrible in a condition build! Some weapons are for certain builds!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

your personal classification system isnt applicable, this game doesnt have the canonical trinity

You should first try to understand how the game works. Some weapons and utilities are strong in some builds, that’s totally fine. Why should a power weapon be strong for a condition build? Why should all weapons be strong for all builds?

Engi is a jack of all trades that works, they can do almost anything effectively if built for it and that’s what makes them fun. They get far, far better at level 80 though, keep going ^^
