blind stacking, cripple / immob stacking, poison stacking (and a metric kittenton of other condis to cover it), cc-spamming (kicks, pushes, elevates), direct DPS and/or condi DPS on melee or range, heal spamming, boon spamming, condi-cleaning.
- Mediocre in the melee train (no self-sustaining stability, the engis only real downside in zergs)
- Purely awesome in the backline
- Purely awesome in the Hunting party
Just tell me what your guild-group is missing and I show you a engi-build that covers it neatly.

Engineer is love, Engineer is life.

Well, the build that I use with my guild in WvW is this:

This is a frontline build, very usefull, very strong with support/attack but need training.
In the front with an Eng you can area blind the foes, burn, poison and apply confusion just with bombs with a 3k average area damage plus heal for a small amount. You can gain fury and might more few sec. of Stability, that is good for the first assault. Remember to protect your back with BoB before attack. Well, if the situation need a little more support, use the healing turret to water field and elixir gun to remove condition and a little heal with a light field. It was the best build that I can run in the frontline against zergs… Note that you have tons of dodge and might. You will notice too that when you are stunned you nearly don’t suffer from direct damage because of the damage redution of the traits and food and you have a lot of condition duration reduction… Nice play…

I run as a commander a lot on JQ, with a very similar front line build that Ney Matogrosso linked. Well, the traits anyway. The difference is that I use P/S instead of rifle. I run full celestial ascended gear instead of a mix with cavaliers gear. I also use bowl of lemon grass poultry soup instead of saffron bread.
