Guild Wars 2

If you don’t want to use grenades at all and use the elixir gun mainly, what’s a good build for that? At least 10 tools, but does the elixir gun scale better off of condition damage or power? And is investing in inventions for the bonus to healing a worthwhile thing to consider, or just go for traits that are helpful?

Personally, I’m a fan of the elixir gun. if you spec for heals (cleric or apothecary) you can be a great force multiplier in dungeons. and fill a very rare role and one that engis can do fairly well. Fiddle around with specs, you want at least 10 in tools for kit refinement, and 20 in firearms for range and cooldown reduction on the elixir gun is nice.
