I don’t want to fight with a sword , with a pistol or with a mace. My dream would be to enter in a fight with my big wrench and to smash it on the heads of other people . So , as others i suppose, i am trying to create a toolkit based build. Probably what i am doing is not something new , so if someone has a better idea or something better it is welcome.
For know i thought about 2 different builds : a power one with rifle and another condi based with pistol pistol. All use hgh for gain might but if you have something better to put on the table i am really happy .

Just for grins, sometimes when I’m mat farming on high level maps, I wear my Assassin armor + Knight trinkets and select the Static Discharge trait. The Kits I use are Battering Ram, Rifle Turret (for Hidden Shot only) and Tool Kit. With Backpack Generator and Mango Pie it’s a surprisingly powerful and tough melee build. It’s fun for a change.

Well since engis are about to get hammers in expansion, maybe there’ll be a wrench hammer skin.

GW2 has taught me that being a Mesmer is about..
..being a cynical forecaster.
..being a doom-monger….and being a hopeless jinxer.

Try the XIII explosive trait for quickness on interrupt, with intelligence and rage for the sigils, pull them in and go ham. You’d need to take speedy kits & invigorating speed to make up for the loss of the energy sigil, and I’d rethink skipping backpack regen (personal choice). I’d go with rifle personally, so you have a decent spike to finish them after going whack a mole on them. May work, may not, but would be funny either way (i’m fully gonna try this when I finish work) ^^

the one in the trailer is like a bizarro wrench\ sledgehammer mix so the chances are good

Yes the objective of my build is not to win TOL or become meta… but to see people down killed by wrench !!!! i want to see broken skull

Now that’s my build! However, since it’s a fun build i would go full troll mode and play the gadgeteer: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fdAQFAUlsTpkrNexzLseNSeBN6rMljAyBEARGwdA-TJBFwACuAA62foaZAAPAAA

yeah, this build would make more sense imho.

I mean, I play the standard sb/rifle builds in spvp and pve..
And I swap to wrench as it is to amusement from time to time. or, anyone/thing that reflects projectiles.

Magnet is not super effective in closing a gap, its no dash/shadowstep etc. this is were a superspeed, rifle net, jump is going to be needed. pistol glue won’t do it. ram kb/etc maybe. Personally I might even go rocketboots or net turret.

I’d want speedy kits in there though. speedy gadgets is pretty meh. esp if you take rifle or net turret. but even with boots, shoes, and/or ram, most of the power is in the toolbelt skill, not the gadget.

Might drop the firearms for power shoes in inventions, as well.
Energized armor would be just over 70 power with that spvp zerker ammy, and vamp runes. eh. not sure on best at that tier.

My bad, of course you need speedy kits instead of gadget recharge. Medkit + vamp runes is just a suggestion, but i like the synergy with toolbelt recharge.
