after read the anet official news, i felt like the stronghold is anet version of dota
The 2 GM need 40 skill points and 6 gold
I think he need to unlock the GM trait
One more thing, when engi enter a group fight, use thumper turret can immediately knock almost every opponent, and apply protection for team mate, then target one easy target ( necro engi or ranger) >tool5>pry bar> (opponent dodge) rifle 32 through wrench and rifle 4 (3 first then 2 cos sometimes miss) stand up rifle 5 land on him rocket tool belt shoot under ur foot then deploy rocket and overcharge it if opponent panic, it’s a confirm knock down. If opponent fight back in between even better, cos it’s a chain, and he or she will eat all. Usually this target will try disengage. Engi either elixir or block in between somewhere. Anyway so far I felt this combo is quite ok.
Sometimes it can also initiate by using supply crate then u can save thumper tool belt skill before overcharge shoot
Fighting stability is simple, net shoot, through wrench and tool kit skill 2. Pry bar apply confusion can slow down burst, retaliation is work the same. Eventually stability will time out. Then the war or gard will be in rather bad situation.
Exactly. So are you using turrets to do any of this? Unless you run net turret, which i doubt.
NOPE!
Proving my point, TURRET Engi’s are useless unless supplemented in SOME way. And even then its not optimal.
Thumper turret default attack apply cripple, and either rocket or thumper turret successfully knock people down, tool kit 5 can initial a round of burst with rifle, since it is a guaranteed combo. And u don’t get this build. The purpose for this build is cc, it slow down the fighting pace through interruption, not just knock down and stun, but include cripple, disable and reflection. It requires the engi to enter a disadvantage fight (2v1 or 3v2) use terrain especially. So far I don’t see any skill is better than thumper in term of cc. With thumper tool belt skill, u can overcharge shot without self knock back
The AI can be manipulated and optimized, so no its not noob.
However it is a terrible build with very little going for it and clear counters.
If u stand still lay every turrets down, yes u r very vulnerable. But the key is cc combo chain which requires the turrets be laird in order with the usage of ur weapon and kit skills. In n vs n battle, find the key personal to target, and the laying moment of rocket turret is very interesting, cos the 3 seconds retaliation sometimes can change the tide of the battle, I used to see a guard instantly kill himself after I laid my rocket in center of a fight.
That is the guards mistake, not an inherent strength of the build.
If you are running PvP with no stability/break stun, then getting shoved by a turret engi is your deserved reward.

A friend of mine found Turret Engineer to be very annoying so he decided to make one to test them out and see how to counter/beat them. He simply used Tomes/Crafting from lv2 to lv80. He copied a build online, obviously very new to the class and hopped into queue with me for a few matches to try the class. He didn’t even know what half the skills did but managed to bunker home pretty effectively in 2vs2, 2vs1 or 1vs1 situations. That just shows how low the skill floor it is for that build. Obviously there are always counters to every build but when a player with no prior knowledge on the class goes straight into battle and manage to come out on top, shows something is clearly wrong.
Yes u r right about skill floor thing, but among turret engi there r also good bad players. Most of time people don’t bother, they generalize all turret engi as the same.

Every time I see people comment :" turret engi had very little skill" or " no skill needed, just AI" I just felt like a deeply insult. Engineer was my first profession after I purchased the game, and I played turrets for at least a 14 months. I didn’t copy any build online, I just tried out everything myself with many different varieties.
Back to topic, now, every time when people see turret Engi, it’s like they see a noob, now many people just think turret=noob. Most time when I met such people in pvp, shamelessly insulting me in map chat, either describe me as scrub or f****r, I just keep scilent and try my best to beat them hard most time I can beat them until they rage quit. (some are skillful player, after fight they may stop insulting me but some just behave like a pro and say things like" u have potential, but turrets won’t bring u further. Go and try some other build, u will be better etc etc)
I like my hybrid cc turret build, cos it woks well, even with decent player, there is still good chance (1v1) and I never sit duck on a single point. So show some respect pls. No matter u win or lose to a turret engi, don’t be a jerk. And don’t judge people base on their skill slots.
There is such person

Ginna V Golian
Golian is inspired from Goliath, since Norn is a giant race
V makes it somewhat noble. German middle name Von usually inherit from noble family and also V has multiple other symbolic meanings, like victory or anarchy
I was thinking about Jin, but that doesn’t sound female enough, moreover Ginna May origin from Scandinavia or Germany which makes it quite Norn.
thank u very much
