So this is my engineer, Minty Winter. I went for a pretty scary look, so when people see me running at them in Spvp they all shout: Winter is coming!

I’m just kidding, I decided to buy the krytan set, but didn’t like the shoulders and helmet so I went for these instead.

Well, one thing you can do is get a thief friend. (one that understands that you can do more than heartseeker) Get him to pick up a shortbow, as shortbow has a spammable blast finisher and let him cast it a few times in your smoke field. Yes, it isn’t as simple as your combo, as it requires two players, but it is very effective.

It’s true that thieves have shadow refuge, but that’s on a big cooldown and not every thief uses it, however a lot of thieves carry a shortbow with them.

It surprises me how often we take the very difficult approach to a problem, when the answer is right in front of us. Teamwork can get a lot of things done in guild wars. A class that many people consider bad (engineer) and a class that many players consider no-skill button mashing (thief), ignore these people btw, can still do tricks like this and I’m sure they can pull off way more impressive things if you take your time to think about it.

I just remembered we have the stealth on immobilize as well (inventions traits) what if we could find an item that immobilizes us for a few seconds. Karma vendors usually sell those kinds of items.

I’m pretty sure this all happened in previous patches, when the ‘throw mine’ toolbelt skill still used to create 6 blast finishers.

So I’m afraid it’s no longer possible to do this, but keep up the great work. More people should do theorycrafting like this.
