Hey,
I try to play a melee-ranged, bomb-oriented engineer.
This is my build so far:
http://de.gw2skills.net/editor/?fcAQJAqel0pyaHxSfF1LJyoCdGIF6FAISR+ZZfUwWPIA-j0CBINChEEA0HJMHqIasFhhtKKalRBRJjIqWdDzcLxmcRVIAfjBA-w
The weakness of this build/ playstyle is that I’m often downed though I have 20k life and over 3k armor.
To push my survivability I’m searching for other means than toughness.
I’ve read many engi-traits that are based on critical hits from enemys, such as:
Protective Shield - Gain protection for 3 seconds when you are hit with a critical attack 20 second cooldown.
With the current patch there ist another trait:
Armor Mods - Gain 5 seconds of Aegis when critically hit. 25 second recharge
Does these traits make sense for playing PVE/ can npc-enemies crit? I haven’t found anything to hits topic in the guild wars 2 wiki?
Or has someone another advice for me to optimize my playstyle?
Thanks
Scypher
