Guild Wars 2

My Sylvari Necromancer I finally got around to level to 80.

Sigurd Asbjornsson. I really like that name. Not only does it sound cool, it’s very fitting lore-wise, and the fact that the name meaning fits the proffesion/spirit so prescisely is a very nice touch.

I’m terrible with scores but I’d give it a 9/10.

Now, my Norn Warrior goes by the name of Loken Brickfist.
Brickfist is of course not his real surname. It’s a nickname he’s earned over time because of his tendency to solve problems with them. (I tried to come up with a more creative backstory, but could not figure out anything good, so it will have to do for now.)

Thanks for all the replies. Some really good advice there. I feel like I have a better idea of how to proceed now.

I feel like it’s either going to be Jewelry or Weaponsmithing.

Again, thanks

My warrior is level 50-ish now, and I figured now would be as good a time as any to choose a second crafting discipline to go along with my armorsmithing, which is at about 200-ish right now.

Weaponsmithing seemed like a good choice at first, but they pretty much use the same materials. I feel like it could get tedious leveling both, but I do like the legendaries you can make with them.

I’ve also considered Jeweler, because the materials don’t overlap as much and trinkets and the like seem useful, but a guildie told me to not even bother with jeweler as it’s supposedly completely useless and a waste of time and money.

Any suggestions to what I should pick?

I love the idea of hammers on engineers and I think giving us access to more weapons would improve a lot of things.

I have some hammer ideas of my own. (if you don’t mind me posting them, if you do mind I will of course delete my post) It will all be based around a passive ability called “magnetism” (not sure about the name)

1) 2 combo swing

1. Overhead strike. Strikes everything around the engineer and does medium damage

1. Magnetic Discharge Smash. Smash the ground, dealing damage in a radius and applies a stack of the “magnetism” debuff. 3 stacks of this will stun and daze the opponent.

2) Rocket Smash. Basically like the OP’s idea.

3) Vault Breaker. Like the hammertoss ability from [prototype] Gimmethepegun showed. Applies a stack of Magnetize

4) Overdrive. Overcharges the capacitators/engines in the hammer, thus making the engineer spin out of control. Does damage and knocks enemies back.

5) Weld. Smacks the hammer into the ground and welds people with the “magnetize” debuff into the ground. The stun duration depends on the amount of stacks of magnetize.
Welded targets will not be affected by the knockback of overdrive, continously getting damaged by it.

I wish it were LOUDER, to be honest.

It’s a bit weird that there’s only One sound effect for the rifle autoattack, though. Heck even WoW uses more than one.

So more gunsounds, please. (and an option to silence it for those who prefer that)

Hello everyone. Stumbled upon this thread and thought I should introduce myself.

Name: Tacowrap
Main Character: Tarcor Blackpaw (charr engineer)
Current Server: Desolation
Interested Activities: Everything the game has to offer, tbh.
Active: Way too active for my own good, as I log in almost every day.
Additional Comments: I’m a helpful person and a bit akward at times.
Are you willing to participate in Operation: UNION’S project, Y/N?: Yeah, of course.

With the resent patch, I’ve decided to shelf my engineer. They’re more or less, utter crap now. And since this is my only character, I don’t have much choice but to reroll if I want to continue playing (which I do). So it would be cool to have some folks to talk to while leveling.

If I could only decide what to play…
