I think a Scepter/Staff could be some type of Conductor Rod for Engi.

I think Rabid gear makes for a good all around build and isn’t a huge hassle to get although due to the high toughness you’ll probably get targeted in raids so I’m not sure how practical rabid is in raids.

I was thinking Rabid equipment, what upgrades should I invest in do you think? Like sigils and that..

Geomancy and Torment are great sigils to invest in and for runes Im not 100% but I think Balthazar Runes are good.
EDIT: Sigils of Earth are great too.

I think Engineer would work with like a technological portal thematically.

Scarlet is a perfect example of an in game reason why engineer would be able to make portals. However the watchwork devices are already available to everyone.

It’s a long way until they can do ground targeted teleports.

Honestly Id be fine with like a Mesmer sort of portal really if they can make it somewhat unique.

-Rifle buff so it’s a good match to pick hammer or rifle
-Shield rework
-Remove cast time on all toss elixirs besides X
-Rework Gadgets, Turrets <- that will never happen
-One hand power weapon Mace/Axe is needed for power shield to work
-Party wide buff- Could be a vitally buff that no other class has it, but I personal don’t want that.
-Rework Backpack regenerator and inversion enzyme Traits I’m not even sure anyone uses them
-Rework some traits [Glass Cannon<- If you get touched by dps you lose this, Steel-packed powder, shaped charge <- Rev minor trait is this, short fuse <- make this base line, rework all master trait for explosives so they are effect.Reactive lenses, Gadgeteer, shorter cd on kinetic battery,soothing detonation,expert examination.

Dont forget about MedKit! T_T Everyone always forgets kittenkit
EDIT: Oh and those 2 bad gyros.

Just wondering why did you include just those 3 Engineer skills in the example? Like why those 3 in particular?

EDIT: Yeah I see what you mean now youre absolutely right.

Yeah people have been suggesting to scale turrets and Gyros off of player stats for literally years, but ArenaNet have said on multiple occasions that it’s not possible because they’re constructs/‘gadgets’.

Yet isnt the idea of Scrapper that they take scrap parts and design these gyros? So shouldnt they be able to design them more power oriented or tank oriented if they so please? I mean that whole statement from ANet sounds like a whole bunch of bs and its insulting.

I want like an actual support specialization like the Druid unless they fix the medkit but even then is that enough for a healing/ support build? I would also love to see something like a teleport it would fit so well in terms of the mechanical advanced technology themes. In terms of weapons I’d guess mace pr axe but it could really be anything. For example even a scepter could be made into sort of a ranged tesla or conducting rod or something. It doesnt have to even be a healing thing any new unique mechanic that can offer group support would be great.

Wrath of the Phoenix [WotP]

Wrath of the Phoenix is a relatively new guild and is welcoming all types of players. Our goal is to create a small community that can do whatever their heart desires within a close knit group of helpful friends. Big guilds are fun and all but this guild offers something that a big guild won’t, the chance to make actual friends to explore Tyria with. We aim to do all types of content from Costume Brawls to Raids! We accept people from every home world as of now so we cant do WvW BUT it is one of our goals in the future. I should also mention that we play on NA servers. As the guild is quite fresh we are desperately looking for recruiters. Whether all you want to do is PvP or would rather spend your time Ecto Gambling, Wrath of the Phoenix is here to do those things with! You can mail or PM me in game if you’re interested.

Rune of The Undead vs Rune of Balthazar

So the dps output wins even though the other damaging conditions are doing less?(because the loss of condi damage) And thanks for the response I think I’ll roll with Balthazar runes then.

Rune of The Undead vs Rune of Balthazar

I run a condition engineer and have for some time now, I usually use Runes of the Undead but I am contemplating whether that is the best option or not. When looking at the differences in PvP I saw that equipping the Runes of Balthazar made me lose 140 Condition Damage and 100 Toughness but I gained 45% Burning Duration and the two abilities the rune of Balthazar has. I’m not an expert on stats or builds or anything like that so I was just wondering which I should roll with. Thanks, in advance for any advice, suggestions, and other tips you guys might bring me. Also, if you have any other runes you run on your condition engineer and think those are really good than by all means I’d love to hear it.

By the by, I use all Rabid gear.

Ok, so I’m a pretty new level 80 Engineer and it’s my first level 80 so I figured I’d go ahead and make a build. Now this might be the worst build you’ve ever seen, but I want any constructive criticism I can get. This builds is for like Dungeons/WvW and maybe pvp but I’m not sure if it would work there. Anyway, here it is: http://intothemists.com/calc/?build=-X;4cPVg0f6V1Fx0;9;4T9-J918A5;308-5;0383;0F3-NX8aNX8aj-ki-M;2a;0SVWWa1gYm31a0-WCc1g;5c-79-X1V;9;9;9;9;0k0;3V6s5h

Also, I was thinking about swapping the elixir gun out for tool kit in WvW or PvP depending on the situation. :P

Today the guild and I played pvp, we were all pretty new to pvp and it was a BLAST! I had tons of fun playing and it was awesome to have a nice environment where we didn’t have to try super hard and could just chill. Especially since we played on our own private guild server.

Sigil of Geomancy?

in Engineer

Posted by: Rude.9485

Rude.9485

Hi guys! Im a pretty new level 80 engineer and I’ve been looking at and theorycrafting many different builds (condition damage that is) and I keep seeing the Sigil of Geomancy come up and I was wondering why? What makes this sigil so much better than the others? I understand the synergy between using kits and this sigil, it allows for easy switching and such, but still doesn’t seem to make it better than say another on switch sigil. :P

P.S. This is my first forum post so if theres anything wrong with this please let me know. Thanks!
