its still the same ol

you can try pp condi (burning surprize) – smth like http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqanUUBVXhtbB2aBEqiF2iC8DLxAgu3H+kXsjminA-T1RFQBNS9HRqEsD7PksHAAAOBAwRPAxU+RKgHVbB-w
fun for a pair of weeks (dont evar try dis on pvp :P )

This build looks incomplete, for starters no 25%(mecha legs, speedy kits)move speed on a roaming class? You are having to burn Elixir B and the toolbelt B to get swiftness. Meaning your stab could be down when you need it.

Shocking Speed and Rapid Regeneration are traited with no access to a lightning field? Seems a little light on Condi removal.

I will preface this by stating im playing other games atm so this is purely theorycrafting. When i last played, Scrapper was well down the list as a viable roamer. But with the recent changes maybe a bit has changed.

For condi+stealth movement speed is just QoL, you insta melt most targets. I ve pasted a build I was using a pair of weeks, so it definitely worked :p 1v2/3 as always

Zerker hammer 2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-1-1…

Nothin happened last two years

Ai cant be hard to master. Dats just ai.

And thats great! Ai should make your life easier if you newbie yet, but shouldn’t bring you to the experienced guys level. New engi can run turrets with almost no harm, while leveling, after that he replaces them with combos, kits and fun engi staff

No, plz, nooooo!

Rly, just search vids from buffed turrets time. Worst engi time ever

Dats pretty simple – when someone whines about solid stuff its l2p. Stop crying and making dumb topics

Oh, yea, I meant R ofc

So 3 turrets sux, all gadgets sux, elixir u sux, 2 gyros sux

So why do you want a dumb ai things to be buffed? Gadgets are in much worse place and they are not about “ai to carry bad players”.

Btw supply crait is also a turret

Ok, I have to say dis: l2p
Rly
Engi never wes a braindead guardian, and we dont need to be. Ft is great in burning right now, meta pve kit, strong roaming. Dats the best place for it in ages.
For wvw frontline joke go hammer, ft never been a great choice in frontline, it was just for making lootbags.

As for ft5 – its great! A blind from the stun saved my life billions of time

Ft is ok.
Seems like first time in 4+ years

Yea, and a bag of gold

You shouldnt be able to carry 4 people, for sure. This is a game of 5.

Plz no more brain dead turrets

Glorious, wvw rewards track and racical t3 look chests look heavier

I dont know if you were thinking to use Sage amulet to be hybrid…. but on the link the amulet is Mender, so U dont have any condi damage. Right now that build is a power build with flamethrower 8|

Sorry in the real build i was using sage amulet, not mender, probably i did an error when i compiled the build …. i was using sage + balthazar with ft and it seems quite fun to use ….

i c

well im pretty sure you ll have tons of troubles even with so-so thiefs and dh

Dis is not hybrid :p

Nope, you felt it wrong. Engi is good in defending 1v2 for high amount of time, if defensive skills rotated properly. But ofc half of the game you do res and save your teammates.
As for 5th, if your team looses a 4v3 battle, noone will carry.

Asura masterrace
Engi masterclass

dgraves, stop theorycrafting, l2p – with tons of thiefs back self-regulating defence >>> backpack regen. and no backpack regen while capping hammer (80% of time)

RR is great and for now we dont need more damage

in open world you can run anithing you like – even junk build you posted :P

1) yes
2) yes
3) you may play anything in dungeons, for raids condi is better

also need to rework gadget heal, that sux
ram, mine and googles

ah and traits are not great at all :P

Sure. We need more topics about scrapper being good until any bearbow can beat it.

I ran tests against chilloreapers yesterday for shout hammer/mace-shield warrior in custom arenas with friends. And I got the same amount of rage :-) nerf every meta to hell. We want to be archers, pistolers and rest junk

It procs from the next strike after 50 percent
Ive checked it only on hotm golems, but it worked as described

after 3+years you still believe?
ram is stupid as ram
googles are 4 times worse then elixir b

and all thouse utility slots just cost us too much – cause we are condi weak – so we need hgh cleaning and eg. or we cant make enough damage – so we need nades and tk.
they still have no place for engi and scrapper

but tbh every profession have 1 or 2 utility types that totaly suk

Xyonon.3987:

I like how you say that without giving us a reason to do so – mostly because it’s obvious WHY they should do something like this. I’d like to see more than just a drastic CDR on the shield tbh. I’d like to see some rework with the skills, more utility and defensive capability. Maybe it’s also a problem that the pistol skills are lackluster. The auto attack still isn’t an explosive as promised, the aoe does still not cause bleed, poison dart volley still misses and is often almost no dps gain at all, would be nice if there would be some defensive utility (poison + weakness?) and skill 3 … well … that’s the only good one tbh.

back in the days, you know, we used shield and it was ok even when we stucked while blasting swiftness on the move

fair

Hammer – #4 20 sec, #5 24 sec
Rifle – #4 15 sec, #5 20 sec
Pistol – #4 15 sec, #5 30 sec
Shield – #4 30 sec, #5 40 sec
TK – #4 20 sec, #5 25 sec

now we get even more cd reduction to tk … why?

war shield – #4 20 sec, #5 25 sec
guard shield – #4 20 sec, #5 24 sec
revenant shield – #4 15 sec, #5 25 sec
mesmer shiel – #4 30 sec, #5 40 sec and having alacrity

so we need at least get minus 8-10 sec base from each shield skill for it at least to be an option

Darknicrofia.2604:

you’re so right, the entire gyro area should just be a walking fire field.

that apply 7 stacks of burn every second, yea

i doubt that it is interesting to anyone except you to watch full Emerald match.
keep recording at least to have some stuff with “best plays”.

like montage, dislike music and gameplay :P

PierPiero.9142:

Do you think , with power wrench modification , that power based nades build ( old marauder nades meta for example ) will be more viable ? 33% reduction on toolkit skills is a huge buff prybar on 10 seconds…. 13 second for gear shield …. it seems really interesting and i was thinking where to fit toolkit . I see something like explosive, toolkit , alchemy … with nades, toolkit and elixir gun / elixir S / Slick Shoes…. a lot of fun …. what do u think ?

idk about alchemy, inventions is an option too with that less place for elixirs on a toolbar

rifle,nades,tk,eg … like in old times :P with new amuletes it may be good.

but for me – im too much in lav with function gyro to leave it

me personaly dont think that would be a big issue
40 seconds on elite is still nothing, as we had 120 sec on suply crate for 3 years. we can live with that

i think you have played with constructor and posted a message about that

And have to be +1 every time, cause u have nearly no place for skills to sustain focus on you

PierPiero.9142:

yes but without explosive you lost a lot of damage for the minor explosive traits …. at least if you play condi .
For power you can take explosive ( firearms is not so strong with a power build ) so you don’t have problem. I see 2 ways in general for core builds ( not scrapper ) :
Condition : incendiary powder, pistols pistols with one or more kits between elixir gun and flamethrower and toolkit
Power : rifle based with explosive so you can take grenades, bombs , elixir gun and toolkit.
The only real “always” available kits are elixir gun and toolkit becouse they don’t depend so much on a single trait line . Flamethrower is good , ok but imho it works better with condition builds and in any case Flamethrower, for me , is not as good as elixir gun and toolkit so i’d not take it in a power build

What explosive trait you talk?
And remember, that you cant run pure condi nowadays(till 26 jan). You have to have power too

First, I did it(ressing with giro under pressure) multiple times
Second, I talked about stomping 1vs2

It s just a minor trait that helps you in long fights

shion, barbarian is not condi, you know :P

also explosives line is not that mandatory for bomb kit (short fuse not that critical as grenadier)

idk, for me not that bad trait – allows to have better chances 1vs2
+1500-1700 health and 5 might for fight continuation

Didn’t play bombs for half of year, but it seems it can replace nades in viper(or carrion) hgh build. Pros : more on point pressure, cons : you have to stay melee while having not much def and you ll have hard time hitting players on the move

I bet it is fun to run away from any condi 1vs1

what ? /chars 15

original post was deleted by topic starter

… OP selfdestructed

you didnt find any build, you ruined good pre-hot hgh-cele engi and played it awful.
+2 traits mistakes

i dont see its decap potential versus most of bunkers or any necro.
they either survive and help comes and kills you easy, or kill you by them self

can you kill tempest? no. can he? yea via burn
can you kill chrono? no.
can you kill herald? no. can he? yea via condi
necro? run, stealth, try not to cry, cry a lot
can you kill druid? no. can he? yea via pet
can you kill mara scrapper? not sure
