Guild Wars 2

Deniara, yep i read the other class forums and realized it was not a engineer issue, more so the theifs spec’d in the CD/backstab glass canon mode are insane dps machines.

I am in the process of retooling my engi to the tankCat spec with a small variation (bomb heal infusion) and then go back out to wvw Looks like a fun spec , but i think i will miss my condition dps. Oh well.

Again then (corrected stats):
Rabid and rampager gear: 0 vitality
Carrion accessoires: 240 vit
6x Chrysocola orbs: 84 vit
20 Skilled into Alchemy = 200 vit
2x pistols with +64 vit each = 128 vit
= 652 vit = 6520 hp

Base HP = 15082 hp
+ 6520 hp
= 21602 hp

Vitality consumable (+100 vit) =
22602 hp

Difference to actually visible hp is either a bug or Power of the Mists buff.

Thats about right, but i use the orbs also in my weapons. I am too cheap to spend on sigils or runes !!!

How hard does the burn hit for in a condition build ? Wondering if this would help in a wvw build to counter theifs that i am having issues with.

You guys are cracking me up. He obviously has SOME kind of vitality buff. That’s extremely high HP for an engineer and based on his gear he should have around 19k.

I have prec/tough/cond armor….. my weapons are power/vit/cond and my jewelry is the same. I have power vit cond orbs in all my armor and I had 20 spec points into the vitality/alchemy line. I had no buffs, the food buff was a boost to my precision. yes my tough is low.

I hate to admit it but that tankCat spec i see on the forums might be my only option. Shame really, i do love dual pistols and condition pressure build.

Anyone here try a full set of cleric armor/weapons/trinkets and spec defensive/support on these forums and have any success?

So I logged into gw2 on my engi today after a few months break and my first venture back out to wvw … 3 seconds later i was dead. Am i missing something or new gear that i am un aware off ? My engi is in full TA rabid exotics and rampager jewelry….

I’m not 100% sure on your armor for WvW as I spend most of my time doing Tpvp, but I think you’re toughness and vitality is low.

Also your armor is all gold.

Your right!! he was after my gold gear !!! kitten thief.

Been struggling against d/d ele’s 1v1 in WvW . My spec is very much that of the Juggermancer (invaders gear with d/d) spec posted on this forums earlier, minus some exotic pieces.

Anyone have any tips or suggestions ?
