HGH Condition Burst build (grenade kit focused)

Copied from OstrichEggs imo one of the best engineers.
Basically ur damage comes mostly from the V trait in Explosives lines, since u crit with grenades and proc that trait.
Currently this build is one of THE best in the game.

Condi-Burst is excellent. It’s not necessarily all from Incendiary Powder though, landing Shrapnel Grenades and Blowtorch is essential for delivering the damage output.

The Geomancy sigil / nightmare rune variant is quite formidable as well, that’s my preference due to the aoe bleed spike. I feel slightly less obligated to use my elixirs on CD as well, saving them for condition cure counters is easier. Trading might stacks for condition damage & duration takes down the risk of a devastating boon strip too, but it’s hardly noticeable.
Pros and cons, yo.
Runes & sigils are just something you have to get used to / like as a player, there are few good choices. You can even rock a rampager amulet to the same degree of success, but I feel it doesn’t offer enough reaction time when people are really after your chocolate starfish.
The traits are excellent though.. it truly is the ‘top dog’ in the current Engi meta it seems.. which is a little disappointing.

Indeed, subtle variations in this are important. Hopefully the patch notes comments dealing with condition duration have fixed the Nightmare runes now and I can return to them.
Geomancy is my preferred loadout as well, but it requires attention. You need to land Geomancy procs, or else Battle would be obviously better.

HGH Flamethrower builds are still yucky. I can’t deal with only being able to stack 2 bleeds, sure the burn is excessive.. but, it’s just that. Excessive. I don’t need incendiary ammo, blowtorch, burn on crit, and FT1, FT3, FT4. You can’t put enough pressure up from infinite burning and poison alone. The flamethrower knockback, although really sexy, is not going to make up for the huge hole it creates.
No shrapnel grenade, or geomancy = no bueno. If they made flame blast a replacement for shrapnel grenade, it’d be a different story.

Has OstrichEggs some videos? Seems to be a great build for sPvP.
