Guild Wars 2

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Good questions my frand Raiff! First, the Firearms trait line is really bad! I’d say it’s the 2nd worst tree the Engineer has! In Vee Wee’s opinion only the Inventions tree is worse than Firearms! You take 10 into Firearms for the bleed on crits, to boost your bleed damage to 100+ per tick, and pistol cooldown! Any more points in that tree and you are just gimping your survivability in exchange for miniscule offensive gains!

Tool Kit is a utility kit! Therefore there is no sense in traiting Power Wrench!

In PvE picking a tree for its passive stat gains might be an ok tactic! In PvP not so much!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hugh Norfolk.2798:

I don’t think that was Mr. Jonathan’s intention at all Yoh. I believe he was merely saying that skill changes between game type(WvW, PvE, and PvP) can be hard to understand and cause confusion to some players.

The simplest change can have a huge effect on a player in any game, and when you start splitting skills and causing inconsistencies on top of balancing multiple game modes it can get a bit crazy for players to keep up. I hope this helps everyone understand what questions and thought process we go through as a team when deciding on splitting skills.

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Why do you guys at Arenanet think us players are so stupid! One of the reasons you guys gave for locking out the new grandmaster traits was “so new players don’t feel overwhelmed”! That is the worst reason ever! And from that reasoning came an awful decision to have these traits cost money! Crazy! We are not all dumb! Stop treating us this way!

Not only that but you have already changed certain skills to act differently in PvP and PvE! Thief Revealed is a 4 second debuff in PvP! It’s only 3 seconds in PvE! Old Dhuumfire was 4 seconds of burning in PvE! 2 seconds in PvP! You did this because of balance! Now commit to this decision! Balance!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

LaronX.8079:

So basically what you did in Gw1. Very good. Just do what you learned from that game an it’ll be good.

On that particular subject, it’s probably quite the opposite : they learned from the previous game that having 3 sets of skills to balance was a nightmare and way too time consuming.

(on my side i too prefer to have the same skills base set accross the whole game)

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Maybe it was time consuming in GW1 where there are literally over 10x more abilities than there are in GW2! 10x more game modes and more classes! Obviously it will take a little work to complete but if Arenanet isn’t willing to put forth the effort into making this game better, why should we play it!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Even though grenades have a 1500 range, it’s better to auto attack with your weapon or Elixir Gun and proc Incendiary Power than to straight up toss grenades at longer ranges because of what you just said! They are just thuper ez to dodge! Grenades work best at short to medium range! However as you play more and get better you’ll be able to calculate where to throw your grenades on a moving target without even realizing it!

Offensively grenade and bomb kit are our best kits! I would highly recommend mastering these kits if you plan on dealing damage!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

First of all I just have to point out that turret builds are not good! It’s a subpar build in PvP and an extremely subpar build in WvW. Glad we got that out of the way!

If you want to insist on using turrets then Vee Wee, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80, will give you some tips! First turrets don’t scale off your gear stats! That means it doesn’t matter how much power you have, your turrets will still do the same damage! This doesn’t apply to Flame Turret and condition damage though! That will still scale!

So because turrets don’t benefit from stats, you want to build as tanky as possible! Luckily turret traits are in the 2 most defensive trait lines that you have! Alchemy and Inventions! Gearing offensively does not work well with turrets because you are sacrificing basically 90% of your defense taking turrets over kits!

Vee Wee sometimes runs a condi double turret build in PvP! Any more turrets and you are just gimping yourself because kits are the strongest way to play Engineer!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

You haven’t come across it because healing bombs is not a good build! I haven’t come across a 3 signet Elementalist or a triple trap Thief yet either!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Sounds like you just need to practice! Good Engi builds take vigor and/or Energy Sigil for more dodges because dodging is key! But if you forget to dodge then no build can save you! Good Engi builds also use multiple kits! A build that doesn’t run any kits will be vastly inferior to a build that does! If you want to get good with Engi, practice running a build with multiple kits! You’ll never get better at Engi if you cop out and run an easier (and inferior) build with 1 or no kits!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Vee Wee approves these new changes! Vee Wee would like this patch to be released thuper ASAP!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Here comes an Anet dev to tell us things are coming without giving us any information on what is coming or when it’s coming! Anyone remember leagues! They said that was coming! Anyone remember those 3 pictures of the new maps! Castle or fortress or whatever with all the bookshelves! Yeah that was like half a year ago! Maybe more! It’s always this “Hey we’re doing things but can’t talk about it and then a year later we’re still working on it!” It’s getting very old and the things you said you were working on a year ago STILL aren’t here!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

EDIT:

@: Balance: it’s something we’re definitely keeping in mind as we experiment with different game types. Some things carry over just fine from Conquest, others become weaker, and others become stronger. It’s inherent/to be expected in having different goals in different game modes.

The solution is SO SIMPLE!!!! Split up abilities into PvP and PvE versions! You did it in GW1! Why won’t you commit to it for GW2! You already did it for some skills like old Dhuumfire and the revealed timer! Why aren’t you committing! Why! WHY!

Wahoo!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Vee Wee would like a map where certain classes can’t blink up 20 stories through a wall! Blinks are already thuper strong! Please stop making maps with 80 different blink spots!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Here’s hoping for nerfs!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Just want to point out that both NA and EU ToL winners did not use any condition classes! Not one! Why you ask! Because of the reasons I stated! There are so many condition clears in the meta right now! Not only that but the most played class (Warriors) can be completely immune to conditions! So can Elementalists, a class that has spiked in popularity because of the buffs last patch! In addition to complete immunity, meta builds for these classes inherently can remove 75252798 conditions! Bunker Guardians, which are used on like 90% of teams, can cleanse their entire team of 2 conditions per shout AND even more if they run virtues! You can call me hurtful names like troll and dead baby but your giant 5 paragraphs of drivel just shows that you have no idea what you’re talking about! Yippee!

Also he’s talking about PvP and then you come in and insult everyone here and then start talking about WvW! Balance is doo doo in WvW! Everybody knows that! You thilly bear you!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Edit: Nice observation my frand atse! But didn’t an Ele and Engi win the last 2v2! None of them were condi! And they beat the double necro team that consisted of 2 of the best Necros in NA!! Ele has so many condi clears it’s thuper insane in the membrane!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

In the options, make sure Use Free Camera is checked! That way when you’re running in a direction you can use left click to turn the camera and throw grenades behind you while not changing the direction you’re going!

Vee Wee’s hotkeys are like this!

Heal!: Z
Utilities!: Q E R

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

What can Arenanet do to make PvP better!
What do you think of Skyhammer and Spirit Watch in Solo Arena!
Should there be voice comms and/or fast chat and/or smart ping options in the game!
What’s your opinion on the frequency of PvP balance updates!
Who is the #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Wee Vee here, #1 worst Mesmer NA and world first rank 80!

Wee Vee is also #1 qtest Asura NA!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Vee Wee is the #1 qtest Asura NA!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Flame Legion Runes are very good if you have a lot of burning! Guardians, Engis, longbow Warriors, and Eles all benefit from these runes! The 7% bonus damage is a lot and more than Strength Runes! Best of all these runes are dirt cheap! Strength is really good if you can stack might but these runes are very expensive! If you stack might, use Runes of Strength but if you can’t afford them then get Runes of Flame Legion in the meantime!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Skyhammer exists even though an overwhelming majority of people absolutely hate that map! Hate it hate it hate it hate it! Vee Wee personally does not play solo q anymore because of this map! Vee Wee knows many other people who do not play solo q or even quit because of this map!

There is only one game mode! Arenanet only balances with this one game mode in mind! Therefore the game will be even worse if they introduce something like ctf or arenas!

Patches come waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too infrequently! There should be at least some biweekly shavings! Maybe at least once every month! C’mon now! But nope! Once every half freaking year! A tiny change to a class or ability can have profound effects in game! But not changing anything means nothing is changed! Logic!

Not only do patches come too infrequently, they never tell us what’s in store for us in these biyearly updates! Evan’s always coming in and saying, “Hello frands! Evan Lesh here! We have some really cool updates in store for you guys! For some reason we can’t tell you what they are though!” Then one year later nothing happens! Then amazingly people post thanking him! Oh Evan Lesh thanks for posting so we see your red name! Even though you gave us nothing of substance or value thank you thank you! Tho thilly!

There is no way to communicate with your team! When Vee Wee plays Counter Strikes, Vee Wee presses the radio hotkey and then scrolls through a number of chat commands! How hard can that be to implement in the game! Are you going to type in the middle of a teamfight to tell your team a thief is about to backcap home! No! That’s just abthurd!

There’s no pause feature! Last week I think Vee Wee was watching some tournament on Blu’s stream and someone on the blue team disconnected! The casters were like, “Hey red team! Have someone idle in spawn!” That’s just thuper hilarious! Have you ever seen anything as ghetto as this!

There’s more that Vee Wee doesn’t like but Vee Wee is done typing about this! It’s just making Vee Wee mad!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

More game modes will be released with the Tengu Dervish patch!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

You can assist on a kill and then AFK for the rest of the game and still receive rewards! There will always be people who exploit! PvP gives such tiny rewards anyway! Are we all really going to get our panties in a bunch over some guy who’s awful at PvP wasting his time spectating hotjoins for minuscule rewards! It’s hotjoin! Anet should focus on actual issues like Skyhammer in solo q and server desyncs and not waste time with hotjoins!

Also you can’t remove rewards from hotjoins! There are people who aren’t esports enough, aren’t good enough, or maybe not interested in playing solo or team arena! These people deserve rewards too!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

It’s hotjoin! Nothing is ever an issue in hotjoin! Why! Because it’s hotjoin!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Scavenging runes gives incredible sustain especially if you combine it with Leeching Sigil! These effects are extremely noticeable in a 1v1! Combined with the innate tankiness of condi Engis plus its already high sustain and large boost of condi damage that the runes give you, Scavenging runes are a great choice!

Hope that helped! Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

New game modes will be here with the patch that introduces Tengu Dervish! Start saving up your Tomes of Knowlege frands!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

If you want to get better, watch other better people play! That’s what Vee Wee did and now Vee Wee is #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80! Make your fingers smart not stupid! Then learn about positioning! When should you be at mid! When should you be at home! When should you be at far! Then maybe mPascoal can be #1 Guardian NA!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

The game should be balanced according to PvP! Not PvE! Well ideally the game should split up abilities for each game mode like GW1 but it doesn’t so poo! In PvE, anything and everything can be used and you can still achieve success! In PvP, using suboptimal builds will usually end in a loss! Of course when you talk about speed clearing PvE then generally there is one build that is always better than the others! In the Engineer’s case it is Grenades just like Warriors use greatswords and axes over maces and shields! Nerfing Shrapnel and Steel Packed Powder just hurts one of the few viable builds Engineers have in PvP!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

How can Engis be good bunkers if they lack core abilities that all good bunkers have! You said it yourself that Engineers lack these core abilities! That’s like saying oh this guy has no damage or might stacks or fury but he’s a good dps build! That’s thilly!

Engis can be tanky! They can survive on point for a little bit! But that’s not entirely what a good bunker is! A good bunker secures stomps, revives teammates, supports teammates, sets up kills, stays on point! The Engineer cannot do all of these things! A hambow is more of a bunker than a fully bunker spec’d Engi is!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Wouldn’t it be nice to leave a team arena match or solo q match and return to your original location of Divinity’s Reach or Straits of Devastation or something like that! Maybe people want to do map completion or other things during the insane 10 minute queue times! It’s wacky to go through 2 load screens and spend silver to get back to what we were doing! Just a thought my frands!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

You just repeated what I said and then called my posts insane! Who is the insane one here! You thilly bear!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

I explained why Engis will never make good bunkers! But here are some reasons again!

No stability first and foremost! Bunkers need to be able to stab stomp or stab revive! These things win team fights! There is a reason why Guardians and Elementalists are meta bunkers! They have many sources of stability!

Inability to clear poison! Poison is the destroyer of bunkers! It kills your sustain! Good bunkers can clear this many times! Engis have awful condi removal! Lots of builds run Sigil of Doom because poison is so strong and there are too many Warriors and Elementalists with insane regen!

There is a reason why you never see Engi bunkers anywhere much less high level play! I did post a bunker Engi build though that tries to emulate the things bunkers can do! Engis can bunk! But without stability and/or more condi removal they will never truly be good!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Of course Asuras are best! But if you play WvW Norns are pretty useful with their racial elites! If you play Norn, you can get away with not running any mobility utilities because you can just go Leopard Form and escape!

Norns are also pretty useful in the Thaumanova Fractal for the same reason if you play PvE!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Hello my frands at Arenanet! Vee Wee has a suggestion for you! You know how when Doom Sigil or Intelligence Sigil is about to proc, there is a little buff icon where your boons are that tells you it’s about to proc! It’s very useful! It’s also useful for people playing against you to see whether your next hit will be a guaranteed crit or inflict poison or whatever! The same thing should be applied to things like Dhuumfire and Shared Anguish and Incendiary Powder and all that jazz! It just makes sense!

If not a buff icon then maybe an animation aura! When off cooldown, Incendiary Powder could make the Engi’s hands glow orange! Reaper’s Protection could give the Necromancer a swirly black Necro smoke aura! You get the idea! This will eliminate a lot of randomness from PvP! Any Engi players here? Every try to Magnet a Ranger? It never works! Shared Anguish! Immune! Immune! Immune! Geez louise so frustrating!

Speaking of Magnet, please work on these desyncs. Literally every other Magnet pulls someone halfway and then they skip back to where they were! Sometimes I pull people off ledges, hit them with Prybar, and they reappear on that ledge with the confusion stacks! It’s insane! But that’s a topic for another thread! One issue at a time my frands! Wahoo!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

That is a good build in PvP and roaming WvW! Just make sure that you invest in some Koi Cakes and other forms of condition duration! Many people run Hoelbrak Runes and/or Lemongrass Poultry Soup! It really cripples your overall damage if your conditions have -60% duration!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Noscoc has a King of the Hill server! Just head to Cocster’s King of the Hill 1v1 server! I think Moobs has one too! Just search for Moobs!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

If it was meta, then good teams would be using them! But they’re not! Do you want to know why! Because it’s a bad build only useful for trolling bad players in solo Q! No mobility, single stunbreak needs to sacrifice the majority of their CC and protection uptime, no damage, no damage mitigation, can’t fight off point because worthless, extremely, thuper extremely long cooldowns, no stability, no condi removal, etcetcetcetcetc.

Hope that helped! Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Vee Wee recommends celestial rifle build with grenades for solo Q because Skyhammer! Vee Wee also recommends Elixir S over Elixir Gun because Skyhammer!

Vee Wee recommends P/P build for team queue because Vee Wee also uses that build for team queue. Except Vee Wee uses Adventurer Runes for dodges. Vee Wee would also recommend taking vigor instead of prot injection for the celestial build for dodges! Dodges are key! If you don’t dodge then this will happen!

Call them a noob back for typing during a very important match! Solo/Team Arenas are pretty serious! Why is he typing! Who types in arenas! Words do not win games!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

The answer is you don’t! Not as a condi Engi at least! It is literally the hardest counter in the game because of the Engineer’s lack of condition removal, the fact that Necros have thuper amounts of condi removal, the fact that any condi you place on the Necro can and probably will be transferred back over to you, and because of the Engineer’s lack of good stun breaks!

Your best bet is to roll a Power or Celestial Rifle Engi with lots of CC! Rifle with Tool Kit work amazingly well together! But even then it’s a very long and steep uphill battle my frand because Necros have really good stun breakers and usually run more than one! They can also fear you when they get CC’d with a trait!But to change your build because of one class is thilly! Just don’t be in a situation where you have to 1v1 a Necromancer!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

This is a thread about Blu and how an extremely ill-mannered bunch of hostile, bickering gamers decided to put aside their differences and send our beloved NA shoutcaster and dedicated member of the Guild Warts 2 community to Gamescom to complete his dream! Can’t you all see how wonderful this is! And now you rabble rousers come in here trying to derail this thread and ruin this momentous occasion by attacking poor ole Vee Wee! By golly the nerve!

On a side note Vee Wee is indeed the #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Congratulations Blu!

Vee Wee is amazed at how everyone all chipped in for a dedicated member of the Guild Warts 2 community! This gives Vee Wee an idea! Vee Wee would like to start a fundraiser for Arenanet! For every x amount of money we donate to Arenanet, Arenanet has to release a balance patch or fix Skyhammer or buff Engineers or something else the game desperately needs! How much would you all donate!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

“One thing I’d been advocating for a long time was an elevated map where you could push people off to their deaths,” Darrin Claypool says.

So Darrin Claypool is the thilly bear at Arenanet we should throw pitchforks at! Gather up with your pitchforks and torches and your tars and feathers frands!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

The most important thing is to make good use of your heal! Since generally Healing Turret is the Engineer’s only form of condi removal, you need to play smart! Other forms of condi removal that Engi has are plain ole junk! Yippee! Sometimes you need to fall back to cleanse a long lasting weakness or chill or burning! If you try to fight with these conditions you will probably lose! So the short answer is: you don’t! Run away and live to fight another day!

The next option is to get really good and just predict when the bad guys are going to use strong condition moves like Necro condi transfer or Ranger torch burn or Warrior longbow fire field. lol jk you can’t dodge the fire field because balance. Outplay them! Engi is a great 1v1 fighter!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Chaith isn’t going! That is just crayzee! NA’s #2 Engi player deserves to go! Instead we get 2 ele mains! One of them should sit out for Chaith! It should be Zoose! He is unfrandly to me on stream!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Vee Wee thinks you should use Sigil of Energy instead! You are not running vigor so you have no dodges! Taking both Protection Injection and Backpack Regen means you are in it for the long haul! Backpack Regen is quite useless if you die really quick! Not having extra dodges means you will die really quick! Guaranteed! Many meta builds for every class take both vigor AND Sigil of Energy! Wowzerz! There’s a reason for that my frand!

Vee Wee also recommends Sigil of Doom! There are many, many tanky builds out there with high health regen! Warriors! Guardians! Elementalists! Engineers! Poison is one of the most important conditions you can apply and your build has none! You will have to drop either Protection Injection or Backpack Regen to get Invigorating Speed though! Golly gee whiz Vee Wee cannot stress enough the importance of dodges! You could also swap out Sigil of Battle for it but since you are running Celestial Amulet, might stacking is pretty important!

Hope that helped! Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Vee Wee has a suggestion for everybody frands! Well you know how there are achievements for winning a certain amount of rated games for each profession for titles! You know! Things like Champion Phantom, Champion Illusionist, etc! Well there are also achievements for winning matches that don’t have to be rated! You know! Things like hotjoins! Vee Wee thinks these should give titles as well! Wouldn’t it be cool to be a Genius or Legionnaire! Golly gee Vee Wee thinks so!

There are many upsides to this my frands! First all the casual PvPers who don’t play rated arenas can have their very own profession PvP title! Maybe they don’t like to play rated games! Maybe they like it but they get bm’d by other players and now refuse to play! Maybe they don’t like the ridiculously long queue times that ranked games have! Maybe some people can’t handle the esports that is ranked arenas! Whatever the reason, now these players can have their own PvP title!

This will also bring more players to PvP! Maybe a RP player really wants that Illusionist title for his Mesmer! Maybe some people don’t like Champion Shadow for example! Maybe they just prefer Shadow! Whatever the case, adding a goal for PvP will bring in more people! Even if Vee Wee thinks PvP goals are thilly! The only PvP goal anyone should have is to get good/better/da best at PvP!

That’s Vee Wee’s suggestion frands! Let Vee Wee know what you think! Wahoo!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Premade teams aren’t invincible! Vee Wee has beaten many premade teams with 4 other random people! Carry your team to victory! Yippee!

Everybody Rosa Parks Skyhammer! Goshdarn it my frands we want to be at the front of the bus! Just do what Vee Wee does and stop playing solo Q! That way you don’t ruin the game for the 3 people who enjoy Skyhammer!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Yes I am thinking about the 300 heals per bomb versus the 11k Meteor Shower crits! Very useful! Every Engi should roll 30 Inventions! If we get 30 Engis together, we may be able to outheal one person!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Remember that burning stacks duration and not intensity! You don’t need to have 80 million forms of burning! 2-3 sources are enough! Also remember that you don’t need Napalm Specialist! First, the firearms tree is really sub par when it comes to fighting other players! Second, you can reach 100% condi duration cap without it so it’s just wasted points!

In a condi build you want to focus on many conditions and not just burning! It’s the reason why condi Ele and Guardian are so bad! The only have a few conditions! In a full condi build in WvW, you can have 100% condi duration so why would you just focus on burning! That’s just thilly!

Flamethrower as your main kit never ever works! Try Bomb Kit! With only 70% condi duration it gives 100% burn uptime! Then you have Incendiary powder as well! This leaves 2 utilities for more conditions like Grenade Kit! Or you ckittene these for utility and survival like Rocket Boots, Tool Kit, Elixir Gun, Elixir S, or whatever!

You’ll want Swiftness instead of Power Shoes! You’ll never outrun anything with just Power Shoes! The Inventions tree is just yucky in general! Yippee! When you fight other players, you’ll also want dodges! Vigor or Sigil of Energy are necessary!

Hope that helped! Wahoo! Bye frands!

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

What difference will it make! We’ll either have a thread that Anet doesn’t care about or a subform Anet doesn’t care about! Skyhammer is staying my frands! It doesn’t matter to them that 90% of the population absolutely hate the map! Do what Vee Wee does and just team queue! Yippee for 10-15 minute queues!

Wahoo! Bye frands!
