Engineer Leveling Build

Personally I never looked back once I got my elite skill (Mortar Kit).

I use rifle for CC when needed, Mortar Kit for most damage, Rocket Boots & Streamlined Kits for speed boosts, and upgraded to rocket turret from rifle when I need to kill stronger opponents. I also use Elixir B. I was using elixir X but I dropped it to have a turret.

I also am new to the game (level 50ish) after not having gotten past level 25 at launch so maybe there’s some magic bullet I missed.

When I saw the title for this thread, I thought for sure it would be about the animation.

It’s like we get a speed boost to the bathroom b/c we have diarrhea.

Tip of the day: Sell to tradint post

So I’ve been doing it wrong all along…

I just rejoined GW2 last week or two after not having played since launch (for a couple weeks) and am enjoying the game much more this time around. I took the time to read the tips for new player forums, player to player advice, etc – and the advice I saw in those posts were to decon EVERYTHING. Is that not the best thing to do? I’m better off selling greens & blues on the TP?

Thanks for any input.

I think I’ll try the warrior to start & see how fluid I can get with it. Thanks for the input.

I feel like playing some melee dual wield & wondered what the advantages were for ranger, thief, and warrior. Build would be for solo leveling mostly with a touch of dungeon play.

Thanks for any insight you can share.

I looked over what’s included & have 2 questions please:

1. Do you get the additional character slots and gems now or when the xpac launches?

2. How many additional character slots do you get? (A guy in chat said 2 additional but the print says one additional – I’m not sure if he’s adding the slots together from each edition or what)?

Thank you.

Engineer – I found an outdated guide on how to spend the points: http://www.guildwars2guru.com/topic/88640-guide-to-learning-leveling-and-loving-the-engineer/

I’m guessing that thread still has some good advice – not sure what parts are outdated though.

Thanks for the link.

Spending Hero Points

Thanks for the replies. Food for thought. Sounds like I won’t be punished for spending them early on. I’ll give them a good preview before I begin spending.

Question: How many per leveling area can I count on? I’ve gotten 8 so far in the 1-15 area and have yet to complete the area.

I know enough not to spend these until I know what I’m doing but is there a strategy to spending them? Should I wait until I hit higher levels? Wait until the xpac hits?

Thanks

Which crafts for a first character?

Great, thanks Danikat. I will probably craft on 4 characters eventually but I think I’ll start with LW/HM to start.

Thanks again.

My first character is an Engineer.

I’m guessing I could go the gear route of Huntsman/Leatherworker or go the accessory/buff route Jeweler/Chef.

Any advice?

Thanks

Hi internet peebles.

I’ve decided to give this game a proper chance to monopolize my free time after not giving it much of one at launch. (Not even sure if I made level 20).

I’ve enjoyed reading this forum while the game reinstalls but I have a specific question: Other than the “Heart” events, what should I be doing as I level? I don’t want to get to a point & then learn something valuable that I should have been doing as I level up.

Thank you for your time.
