I was playing on my mesmer and elementalist today and I fought so many engis today (seems like new FOTM) And they can apparently use a wrench (is this hacks?) I thought they can only use rifle and pistol and shield. And he used this skill on me and hit me for 16k dmg and I died instantly, faster than mesmer shatter burst (which is pretty UP atm)

I know you devs dont give many engi answers but please nerf this ridiculous class.

Also make slick shoes a 120 second CD, that skill is the most OP rez and stomp interupt.

agreed

being able to apply an aoe chill from 1500 units away is stupidly OP too.

engineers weren’t nerfed enough

OFF-TOPIC EDIT: Engineers need a new kit for single-target.

Ray Guns!

1. Death Ray: Damage… Yay.
2. Channeled Ray: Damage over time, inflict burning?
3. Freeze Ray: Immobilize 2s or Chill 3s with damage.
4. Stun Ray: 1s Stun with small damage.
5. Transmatter Ray: Switch places with target, if no target, massive forward movement ala Ride the Lightning.

I can’t believe no one is talking about how turrets are used to E X P L O I T E !

All engies can just go afk and bake cookies while turrets do everything, its not like the things draw aggro at all.

Wait… no, the opposite.

There’s a perfect skin for this in the asuran starting zone. When I first went through and found the kit I thought that it looked like the perfect engineer weapon.

My guess is that his prybar hit you in the face for about 4k, then he drank elixir B to gain retaliation, then you killed yourself trying to nuke him. All in the matter of a couple seconds so I’ll just say don’t let an engineer get in your face if you want to live. Also, don’t attack when that confusion swirlie is next to your health bubble.

QQ for you.

My main (and highest level) chars are Mes/Ele. I gotta tell ya – I do NOT let some silly Engineer get in to melee range. Especially not after the popularity of the Tankcat build. Hell, yer a MESMER – Illusions 15, all shatters add Confusion/Illusions 30, shatter without clone. Scepter/Torch, it’s on. Let the Engi die from brain-burn, kitten

Holy crap, this is the first time I feel everyone complaining in here must be 12 or inept at hitting anything but the 1 key. +1 respect to the people that don’t do so. Come back kiddies when you have an engineer at cap getting insta killed by a double dagger thief using a kill combo.

OP must be trolling who gets hit by a grenade from long range unless they AFK or distracted not moving , as for the 16k its obvious that the engineer simply used 1 or 3 skills to reflect the damage if it was asuran probably used technobabble Prybar stacking 6 confusion and the Retaliation wich means you killed yourself for running a glass cannon build and mashing keys randomly.

yup definetly a troll seeing how he claims mesmer is underpowered when it is one of the most predominant classes in the game.

Pretty sure you are just another OP engineers on the FOTM train.

Double dagger thief at least requires some skill to get in positions and such.

A “friend of mine” used to do that actually to farm karma before jugs were introduced. He would put up turrets on top of the wall on the penitent waypoint camp with self repair trait and would go off to do other events in the area. The turrets would not be destroyed because a) turrets were traited and b) there used to be lots of bots protecting the area at that time.

btw it was a friend and definitely not me. No sireee.

Hahah, wow. This is a pretty funny troll thread. Most of the points are (when run through the sarcasm translator) pretty okay.

Also: Yeah, turrets are good for that. Not even gonna lie – I did it to deal with the high materials cost of crafting. Haven’t tried it for karmafarming. Could probably get contribution to three or four different events simultaneously, if turret placement was intelligently done.

Up to 3 actually. For some reason his fourth one always broke lol Mostly cause of misplacement or not enough people in that specific area

Yeah, I was thinking it’d be three offensive turrets (rifle, rocket, flame, probably – range issues) and then the Engineer taking their Healing turret to the last event to get the fourth.
