Guild Wars 2

You, I like you too (2).

There’s one thing that don’t make that changes effective.

Gyros run with fuel, and when it is over, like a normal drone we have access today, it will crash. Power Wrench shouldn’t recover the “life time” of the Gyro. It’s a good idea (maybe because I’m a Tool Kit fan lol), but don’t match with the theme of the specialization.

J envy.5270:

personally i think that if your not using hammer, don’t use scrapper trait line, you will miss out on more useful traits.

If your going condi engi then use firearms, alchemy and tools. As it would give you the most useful traits, while being able to choose whatever utilities you want. I personally like rocket boots, tool kit and elixir gun….but then i have always used that build for more than 3 yrs….

I was testing almost the same skill set yesterday, but instead of Rocket Boots, it was a triple kit bomb-TK-EG (even without the bomb fuse trait). Quite good as I can say in term of damage and retreat. xD

Can you link your build sir?

Zsymon.8457:

I know most people think elite is always better than non elite, and usually it is true, but in this case I really don’t feel Scrapper is a big contribution for a condition engineer, you get much more from Inventions or Tools.

Everything you said about specialization, I’m starting to takes as reality. Last night after spend almost a hour thinking about how to make Scrapper works with a condition based build, I came to this but feels like it’s missing something (the gear used on this build as from my engi before they changed the trait system and was moldering in my bank. Not a single piece was replaced with those new stats).

After some tests in Eternal Battlegrounds… Long short story: good damage, good when you need clean your conditions, not too good outnumbered fights and sustain/escape (nothing special).

I’ll try later something similar of your build – not using scrapper – and see the result.

Thanks for the advice

Hello fellow engis

I’ve been playing this game most of the time roaming on WvW maps and after 1 year with the hammer as a weapon of choice, I feel bored with it. :/

There is any other option beside the “META hammer power build” based on Condition Damage?

*Disclaimer: I still like the hammer power build, it’s very overpowered. >:D

Thanks in advance!

No rewards for me too… This make my Fix-r-Upper hybe get low >:

Your build seems really tough to fight against. This last BWE I saw some people using the might stack variation, with FT/EG.

For the Cond. burst pressure that you said, I solved the problem using Alchemy. The real big problem with this build was Reaper’s Chills and Fears, because they are chanelled now. The rest, pretty easy to get downed.

Build for reference: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQFASnUUBlch1UBudBEqilKji+tr77WcZCgwb8DigGA-TxRBwARuAAXV+tT9H86AIu/AgHAgZlgECw8WA-e

The new mechanics plus the hammer skill is pretty beautiful to see in acton. Last night I tried something close of it for few hours in pve/wvw (roaming) and for all the fights I had, only one was really hard… Cele Reaper.

In your build, I would chance only one trait for sPvP, Perfect Weighted for Adaptive Armor. You sir simply don’t have any cond. removal but healing Turret.

Here is my SD roaming build for reference> http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQFASnUUBtdhlcB2UBEqilKjietr77WcZCgwb8DigGA-T1RBABXp8DPdAYq+DP7PAwFA4hHAgZKBJFQELjA-w

Hi guys this is the first time i put here a build.
I play Engi from gw2 start, so is 3 years. I try tons of different build and now i’m using this build that is doing an awesome work.
With this i can fight all class including mesmer and necro, i can take t3 camp alone and i can do a great work with guild raid stay a little far from zerg and attacking with tons condi both spreaded chars or their enemy zerg.

This is the link

I’m using Wolfineer Condi Build with few changes.
First of all Elixir S with Alchemy Traits. He saved my life tons of times with double ElixirS + Stealth. Very OP.
I dont need Tools Traits because i think Tool Kit skills have a good decay timer and i need to spam condi dont need single damage. I have only 26% crit chance but with Alchemy Trait i drink elixir B every time i go under 75% so its ok!

I often change Tool kit to Elixir Gun or Bomb Kit to Granade in base of situation.

Sorry for Bad English!

I have a doubt about that build bleeding access. I tried that build few days ago and I felt that was missing DPS by don’t have the Explosion trait line.

How is the Cond burst in that build for you? To me was pretty “meh”. :/

(for reference, here is my actual build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdQQJAqelUUh6rYJXwELw6FLsFF4HWiBQYNcRv2XSlhHAA-TFyHABEpEbQ1fud/hiUeYmeAAOBAPpE83HAApAgZtF-w )

Just for curiosity, OP, what skills are you using for your cond build?

The title say it all. For scientific proposal, well, trust me, I’m a engineer.

My current build (sometimes Personal Battering Ram over Rifle Turret): http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdQQFAUnUICtdhlcB2UBsehlNDacCdPAhLPXR9725+3A-T1RBABXp8LRdA7o+DR7PAwFA4hHAgZKBJFg5CtA-w

Casia.4281:

I was running SD cele rifle for the longest time in both pvp and pve.

I would run turret, toolkit, rifle turret, ram, supply drop.
Cele gave decent burst. and some survival. sd stun, and ram 2 high damage moves+ a knockback.

SD rifle gained power in the shift to stats on gear. but lost a bit of ferocity.
And then we lost power wrench and rifle mod. ouch.
Prybar core in pve and pvp, and the shields in pvp.

Pvp. mod ammo is meh. Dont think incd ammo much better…
Aim assisted rocket is a nice random boost, and the explode on turrets.. but, thats it really in the tree. wonder if sd rifle should ditch explosives altogether.

Id go kinectic charge in pvp for sure.

spvp instead of explosives.. consider. inventions.
overshield, mechalegs, and bunker down. (or advanced turrets for reflect)

Can you post your idea for Cele SD build?

Sorry, I coul not resist. xD

Obs.: I main an engi too i find it a very good idea!

Mr. Fluff, what about this build? (stole from a “Gw Fox” video :P but with zerker armor)
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fNAQNAR8YjEq0yaHLGsQ1agDhq9K8BjA71NASAXDBA-TlRLgAvK9eU/Jb/BAdD0KD8VCSKA9UGB-w

Aaand I forgot to say that the build is for WvWroaming

btw, for now I’m using this build:
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fNAQNAR8XjUqUwaDLWsw1iAChaVA0eF6gUgV86KJA-TVSBwAP3f4xDAwsSwrKz6q04m6Po0No5gAA4KAQKA9EaB-w

Well, as the tittle say, I’m looking for a good sustaintable melee build focused to use GS+S/A. i’m not a big fan of burst builds with no defense (used to play as a cele engi and bunker hammer warrior).

So… any suggentions?

(PS.: Sorry for the bad english)

This is my blind charr ranger, just t2 armor with Whispers shoulders

I have the same problem! Since Thursday I’ve been having problems trying to run the game’s launcher. It keeps trying to connect to the game server to log into the game. However, I keep getting the same error message “Connection Error(s) detected. Retrying…”. I’d like to request some help in order to solve the problem, since I’ve did EVERYTHING possible to try fit it but was worthless.

Today, the tech support came to my home. He did some tests with the internet, disabled a few things from my modem, but without success. After some testing, he did the same test (by using CMD.EXE) and it showed that the connection drops when the computer try to connect to the NC Soft’s servers (see attached photo), after leaving the Embratel’s servers just like you.

Hi Guys!

I’m looking for a wvw zerg build. My main weapon in my choice is GS and the second one is LB.

Here is my engi, Tchulio Joe ;D

I have the same problem here buddy.

Please help us guys!

Hey guys!

So, I’m looking for a good Static Discharge build for WvW roaming. I tried the basic set (http://goo.gl/VcqW1Z) just for fun, because my play style is more to Cond. damage(http://goo.gl/zJ1TTq).

With the September path, I was thinking to change some skills and traits, like replacing rifle Utillity Googles for Rocket Boots to get some mobility and change the trait Scope for the Power Wrench. What you guys think?

Some friends call me Cow… ;-;
