Guild Wars 2

Won yesterday with 2 warriors in team vs a 3 necro team. The warriors destroyed the necors

Ahh thank you all

Hello I normally play condi scrapper and after the ESL finals I played the hammer scrapper build just for practise.

And I managed to hit Chieftain Utahein with dual strike. Chieftain and myself are not sure how an scrapper is able to hit someone with a warrior skill. So I ask you. Could you explain the damage from dual strike from my screenshot?

I do not like the Medic Gyro in the first build and not to take the swifftness is in my point of view a mistake.

in the 2nd build is elixir C not a good choice. It is in pvp more or less useless. because of its casttime. Vs a ranger you are interrupted every time you try to use it while you have Immobilize and vs necro you will get the fearchain after corrupt boons. Vs the other classes is EG powerful enough.

Elixir C without stunbreak is useless for pvp

So if all classes had this trait, would it then be OP?
My warrior would like this trait.

All classes would love this trait

Looks complete buggy. Even if the playerpool is small the leg + diamond+ diamond should not be in group with someone from ruby. In your team is a beginner. This looks complete buggy

Lightfield+whirl=condi clear.

This clean only condis on people hit by the bolts not on the person who whirl or am I wrong?

Lord of the Foefire is easy with scrapper. Like Basz wrote, just take care of the caster first.

And I bet you will have problems on condi if a necro or a condi engi/rev fights you. Nec is killing your gyro with AE. He not even notice that you have this kind of condi removal.

DH will make 7k+ damage with true shot on you, and you have no block/stealth.

This is nice as a fun build (maybe) but you will lose all 1on1s I guess. You have no defense.

retaliation makes <300 damage per hit. Do not think that this kill someone. Am I wrong?

We will see. Overall Scrapper is one of the best classes at the moment. If they nerf Rev, Nec and Mes, I am fine with a scrapper nerf.

Nina.4317:

Scrapper is one of the most efficient build.
Need to be balanced with others build/classes

Scrapper is not the problem. Hammer is too good. 9/10 Scrapper are running more or less Chaithhs build.

Engi pistol #5 worst #5 skill in game. Vs hoelbrak you do not even see the icon in the debuff list.

I run this build,

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqanUUBFpitbBmcBEqiF2iC8DLxAgO4H+kXsjminA-TJhHABAcCAqY/BgfAAdXGAA

because I love p/p but pure condi does not work. This one works fine for me. I am not able to create a build with 25stacks might, good substain, speed and p/p

Really interesting build. I used chaith viper build , really strong but i want to try your also. His build has much more damage but your seems more viable … i have to try it
The only change i’d do is to take medium fire arms trait ( exploited armour perhaps ) to get speed and vulnerability but i know i’d lost condi duration

I have a very bad rune set but I have enough speed with this set. But you are correct, the speed is the main problem for p/p engis I guess

Your build is great. It is the only viper build i tried with a good mix of survivability and a really good damage . I tried with nades, eg , elixir S like chaith but stay alive is much harder . yours is really impressive

Thank you. I guess Chaithhs build is better for player with his level of skill.

Let me know if you find a way to improve my build. At the moment I like my build very much, I am useful in group fights, I can touch diamond skin ele and necro . I like it.

Power scrapper is able to kill reaper. But it is never an easy matchup for an engi.

Condi engi/scrapper is a joke for every necro.

Yes scrapper > Engi. For condi engi is scrapper not useable. hammer > rifle. Maybe SD scrapper is possible with rifle. But I like pistol/pistol and I see no new build for my p/p engi

I love it too. Good job

I miss something for condition engis. I love my p/p engi but I find nothing new for me

Diovid.9506:

Even in PvP I can’t imagine direct damage scrappers coming close to rabid engi’s.

Rabid engi is not in the meta right now, not even close. Rabid FT builds are a one trick ponys, easy to counter in group fights and with HOT and the new heal possibilites it is getting worse.
I love my pistol/pistol engi but in the meta is not room for this at the moment.

I do not care about pve. My eyes are on sPvP

With HoT Engineer goes into direct damage direction. Condi engi is fading.

Trevor Boyer.6524:

Courtyard actually needs to be best 2/3 rounds.
A round does not end until a full team wipes.
When a team wipes, the match resets and goes to the next round.

I like the idea. But it would change the game completly.

because you kill one means you won more or less the round.

I hope we get some better condi removal. I am so sick of being owned by one condi because we have so few condi removals

Elixir C should be a stunbreaker

yesterday played vs a full group with 3 eles + 1 thief + 1 guard and all eles had this rune. Annoying if you can’t stomp them

Elixir C is not a stunbreaker and so it is not possible to convert fear. In my point of view elixir C is useless because of this

Engi was and is the weakest class to condis. I do not know why ANet want to see us dieing to condis, but they do.

So we die to condis. Playing a FT Condi engi vs any other engi = wait for healing turret → Apply 8+ stacks of burning→ gg

I pray that we get one day a possiblity to handle condis

They should rework the #5 pistol skill. It is the weakest skill in the complete game. I would change it to any other #5 skill.

Hibify is back ? Great news. Played some games with and against him on EU. He is awesome. His performance in team Cheese mode was great

Do not avoid the ranger.

Go to metabattle to check out the meta builds

Napalm from Engi has 1 stack of burning of the half duration on a doubled cooldown. Looks fair

Well deserved. Gratz

Anti.9156:

condi engi could kill a guard before the patch. idk how its after the patch. could still be able
mesmer can kill the guard (moa out of stealth)

with my condi engi I kill the guard without using my heal once. But it takes long to kill him.

As a condi engi I need hours to open a gate. Grenades are missing the gate all the time

What do you guys think about mortar + Lyssa? Just use mortar for condition removal. It helps to fight necros and other condi classes

well done dude. One of the best pictures

I need more condi removal. Fix EG please (#4 and Toss does not remove condi) Or make Elixir C a stun breaker

But acid bomb and the toolbelt does not remove conditions

I play condi engi at the moment and if my opponent is not a condi necro I like my chances to win. Maybe you should change your build.

If you liked the old rifle build, take this:

http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Engineer_-_Soldier_Rifle

and you should be fine vs more or less all classes. This build does not carry you but has an answer for every situation

I faced some people with FT in spvp. Never had problems with them. Could you post your build

Still does not work after patch

10 sec was stupid. 90 sec is a bit long. I guess 60sec would be nice

mortar 5 elixir shell does not count as an elixir for condi removal even tho it says elixir ( when traited alchemy line)

same for Elixir Gun #4 and toolbelt from Elixir Gun. Both do not remove condis

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/engineer/Bug-Alchemical-Tinctures-doesn-t-cleanse/first#post5243160

Does mortar trigger the lyssa runes only by switching to this kit?

ok maybe it works but it should work with all skills named as Elixir. In this case it is even more confusion than before.

The additional condi remove is badly needed on engi.
