Leveling Help - Engineer Style!

Hello everyone!

I am looking to start an alt and I have a few of those scrolls that level you to 20. I have found some good builds for Engineers at 80, but I haven’t found any updated leveling guides.

Would “berzerker” style armor/weapons be best for leveling?
What kind of weapon selection lends it self to faster leveling?
What trait lines should I be putting points into as I level?

Probably my biggest question – what are the best skills I should look to unlock first for leveling?

Thanks everyone!

Oh perfect! Thank you!

Umm…What are zerk speedruns? Is this just finishing the fastest exploration track in a dungeon?

So I should do all the story modes first, then when I am more comfortable do the speed runs?

Thanks!

Thank you for the input Bardy!
I really enjoy the GW2 story so I will definitely be getting the Living Story.

One more question if I may?

How does one do the dungeons in this game? Do we just go to the zone the dungeon is in and spam chat? (Which I am fine with, just got used to group finder tools lol)

Thanks again!

Hello GW2!
I have recently got back to playing after basically the first 2 months of launch. They have added so much to the game I am really overwhelmed coming back to it.

I am working on getting my Charr Warrior to level 80 and I just finished the Zaitan (Zombie Dragon) Personal Story mission (which was awesome) and I was hoping I could get some questions answered or some guidance on tackling this new game again.

1. Living Story.
I read up on the Living Story (I think only season 2 is purchaseable) idea which we can buy with actual dollars, I am interested in purchasing but I am not sure what it actually does in game. Is it just more quests with relativley good soulbound items?

2. Dungeons.
I don’t think I ever ran them, is it worth it at level 80 to go back and do the lower level ones? The currency from each dungeon is used to buy weapons/armor, are they worth having at level 80?

3. PvE Gear path.
If I wanted to work towards getting powerful PvE gear, how would I do that? Is crafting the primary way to get them or dungeons? My other MMO experience has had “raid” style progression.

4. PvP
We can start doing ranked pvp at any point, and we can select reward tracks, (which can be dungeon rewards I think, so my PvP could reward me with dungeon currencies?) and purchase pvp oriented gear and gear upgrades. To get more powerful pvp gear do you get currency (like dungeons) or is it associated with rank?

5. Money
I am level 76ish and I have 5 gold to my name lol. Most of the items in the Trading Post are relatively cheap, being silvers per item. If I wanted to get money, are in game methods suffcient or are the Gem conversions the best?

6. Traits, builds and weapon combo’s
I am an alt-aholic! I do like playing my characters to their potential and I was wondering if anyone had some pointers for their respective classes or a good internet source. The ones I have found seem to be dated by over a year

In the end I am glad to be back in this tremendously fun game, and if anyone could help a fellow player out I would be most appreciative!

Thank you all,
