Guild Wars 2

I missing something like marauder. Power/condi dmg and smaller precision vitality

Hi,
I play engi over some years and with new raid, I take opportunity to help other 9 players kill bosses with my complex condi build rotation.

But after gorseval they ask me If i can relog on warrior… what? Okay meaby engineer is not perfectly suited for sabetha but why some classes are suited for every bosses(herald, warr, druid, tempest…)

I must fight with this rotations to make best output-and everyone know that It isn’t only sometimes press utility or other skill.. Ground targeting, meele range, time manage to use top skills on cd and might stack, almost never use AA… and all this effort is less effective then burnzerker warr.

So why is that? We destroying our keyboard, tap like on piano, have clock’s in head and still have low effectivness then warr. I want only feel be rewarded for this, so I hope that balance patch make some changes.

Btw: other proffesions cheer if they get alacrity and quickness… for me is the most worst seconds in my life

Only with explosion minor trait

No please. I can’t kill bunker ele to take point in conquest, so I play stronghold to avoid this.

Better suggestion is to add much more pvp modes :-)

Manage your blast finishers into right fields, in right time is not easy!!!! And I…… very like your idea!!! Only 1 reason why is my engi main over 2 years is his complex play.

I post here some idea about shredd gyro too. Using combo finisher via gyro is great idea, but I always found better option then shredd gyro-well, if you give me thumper gyro… I see heal gyro(f1 water field) mortar kit, bomb kit… great idea I vote yes!! Start thinking about tool belt skill not OP but somethink usable in pve+pvp

I hate design of charr race, but my main is female charr engi. And i can’t imagine what better race i can choose for this great proffesion :-) I vote charr!! "For iron legion! "

I’m also affected by this bug. Glad to see I’m not the only one.

This topic have same problem. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/HOPE-IV-bug/first#post5863658

I “hope” that they are fix it. I want my hope have in inventory this year :-)

Same problem!

Edit: I was rewarded with karka queens magic by ITEM to my inventory too. (I was deleted it from inventory, for hope to try go karka again or buy it but this doesnt work)

Please reapir it. I have ready all gifts

Condi engi is great in pve and open world. But at 80lvl bit more expensive(you must every time have active +18%condi duration food effect-cheapest way). I play condi engi since sinister gear released and I can confrim, after 14sec fight you have much better dmg then power engi.

In open world condi is more useful(most in new hot areas) rolling devils is hell for every meele player, but you put only fire+smoke bomb and chill.

Try scrapper, try condi and choose what is more fun for you. I use both. Scrappet for mastery farm(flamethrower synergy with scrapp talents grants me perma might cap and much tanky sources)

Try: power scrapper: fire arms, alchemy, scrapper(ft, heal gyro, bulwark gyro, elixir gun, sneak gyro)
Condi engi: explosives, firearms, tolls/scrapper(bomb, nades, ft)

This works for me very well. (I only show you my play style so i give you only inspiration )

If you want dps meter only for PERSONAL usage… then go to pvp lobby, focus indestructible golem and kill him 3 times without pause. Count how much time you need to kill him 3 times and here you have your dps. You can upgrading your build to make best time. I think that time around 30-35sec is good. (Yea if you share might to other team mates you can decrease 1sec every 5 might meaby )

I hate idea to have dmg meter in encountres. But make more diffrent test dummy with timers, spells(reflect training) moving (torment) and add skills, this is for me the way how make effective build and improve (meaby only my) gameplay :-) yea and separate this test dummy from pvp lobby

I play engi over 3 years and I want say something.

In verdant brink you know is console HP. I am solo player and first try i make with revenant… meaby I am bad with this class so I run out of time. This make me angry. I swap to engi and try with scrapper-same result. I try old good nade power build but still not got it. I was make for this HP rlly hybrid build. Firearms, inventions and scrapper. Swap equip to condi and use turrets(flame turret). After 4 mins my work is done. And it’s not only one problem that i solved with this “jack of all trades” class. (AB balthazar HP with stealth blasting, chill noxious pod farm in DS with sneak gyro…)

I think that “unique” class mechanic is whole engineer. No each skill/utility but together make this class great. You don’t need to be master, but if you will play with traits, you always find the way.

Sorry for bad english- tired overnight work :-)

Btw: Still dont know when i can use purge, shredd and blast gyro :-)

Do you want 10 sec cd on weap swap?? I recommend new kit but never weap swap. If you want weapon swap play other class.

whiletruefork.2347:

Assuming for the moment that ANET is going to keep gyros, why not treat them a mix of signets (since we are the only class that doesn’t have them) and turrets (well-established functionality).

For example: when I have the…. healing gyro equipped but not active it “sticks” to me like the function gyro does (or like ioun stones if you’re into it) and provide some small passive. Maybe….. healing power +50? While it’s attached to me I also have the toolkit ability (which makes perfect since since it’s centered on me in the first place). When I deploy it, I lose the passive (a la signets), the toolkit converts to the detonate command (a la turrets) and my skill button turns into some secondary command (a la turrets). Maybe secondary for healing turret is to detonate into a water field rather than a daze.

This could solve basically all of the concerns about stealth gyro:
•standby passive is something nice-to-have but not overpowering, maybe a small on-evade perk
•when activated, toolkit switches to detonate
•while active, the gyro follows you closely…
•UNLESS you activate the skill again, which toggles its “stay put” on and off.

So you can have it hug you if you want to make a run for it and don’t want to worry about the turret falling behind with mecha-legs, and you can command it to stay put and then go off your own way if you want to be sneaky (but fall out of stealth a few seconds later). Granted that’s a pretty substantial buff so I imagine you could it with increased cooldowns, but I expect that would be worth the more fine-tuned control.

This sounds like “problem solved” but what about destroying our gyros. Try to look like other meele class in pvp. Gyros are close to engi so, if you focus on close combat and want destroy his gyro, you must go to him. You are focus gyro and scrapper have some advantages.

Now gyros floating 200-300 range i think (you can destroy them, and doesn’t need to face engis hammer).

I will be very happy if your suggestion come to real, but I am affraid that this make engi in pvp much OP. Meaby some stuck remove (gyro range more 300 will port to you) or radius increase will solved this problem too.

Music played during the Tarir fight, couldn’t find it anywhere so I recorded it ingame: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0Kp9XK-f7A

If it violates any copyright or anything like that let me know.

Thank you.

Thank you too

Enjoy events. Today i made 2 masteries (3rd tier) for 2-3 h play time. Some meta event’s (tarir is best choice) give you a lot of stuff and experience + cool music

Yea it’s true that with power nade build you need more experience. If you want to be good engineer, first you must learn swaping kits.
Traits: explosive-up/middle/up
Tools: up/up/middle (stream kits is your blessing for lvling. Perma swiftness. 20sec swift on swap kit (20sec cd))
Firearms: down/middle/middle

-you can find some builds on net. Try to find power granade build on dulfy. Rlly nice guide. This build is for more experienced engies i know," but sometimes you must first run before you learn walk"

But try everything. Trust me, batteric ram is now very useful in tarir event in hot. Only one skill you will use (meaby untill you get scrapper) everytime-healing turret. Learn deploy turret, fast overcharge turret and destroy turret (water blast extra heal).

Thats it. I am bad mentor (and have terrible english) but I’ll be happy if this poorly help you :-)

Btw: for lvling use berserker stats :-)

Charr (iron legion)

Rifle (use 3,5 skill)
Granade kit (F skill + 2,4,5)
Elixir gun
Flamethrower
-power granade build
-use unly strong skills(never AA) and you will nuke horde of enemies.
-It’s not chill build but you will gain some practice with engi.
-turrets use on solo champs

Hi,
I love mechanism of shredd gyro. I love idea focus utility skill to combo fields. I use combo fields only for might stack, heal, stealth (very rare i focus on specific projectile finisher)

I see at shredd gyro good potentional, but I have problem to use it effectively. Meaby someone know how to use it, please then give me advice :-)

First problem I see at combo fields. Shredd gyro duration is 12s. Yea we have some long fields. Super elixir, napalm… but they have 10 sec (yea it is not rlly short) but we miss 2 sec. In fight I dont have chance to control active combo field.

Second problem is versatility. I can use fire bolts (but why? I can change in condi build Flamethrower for shredd but it will reduce fire field to 4 sec.) I can use healing bolts too (only 4 sec thanks to mortar kit) So in my ulitily slots i choose better skill or kit then shredd so I have suggestion, tell me what you think about it.

If you deploy shredd gyro on field, It will strike bolts of this field. But if field dismiss , still will striking bolts of this field. This really need cut duration. From 12 to 10 meaby.

Thanks for reply and sorry for bad english :-)

I accept addaptive armor nerf. But if they nerf tough by 40% i reccomend to disable 1 sec cd or increase duration each stack (by 40%… ) about HGH, 5 sec might nerf is now for me too much nerf. I now use more viable builds.

I have only 1 reason why to play in auric basin the tarir octovine event – music. Rlly awesome! This is now my second favourite soundtrack in gw2. First is still be fear not this night :-)

Function gyro meaby can res DEAD. Not to full hp, but 50% ( or less, 25% is still be good). I am rlly sad that i cant use It on dead. Yea cd is awesome, sorry guys but 30 sec is nice. Targeting is the thing two and I not put my suggestion.

I love shredder gyro. I see many potentional, if we can use it on any field(from any player) now It’s too hard to use effective (and why use this gyro, if we have simpler and meaby better )

Gyros are only small support for condi builds. Lot of time a give chance to healing gyro… HT i never change you my loyal partner.

Shredder gyro(spinning around i mean) Is best gyro for me. For condi build I have many usage(from fire field to water field) Its cool to heal many players or burn numbered mobs. At single target and low numbered players I not use it.

My suggestion: this shredder gyro have future. I love this mechanism!! You make great idea anet!! But i not register, that the shredder gyro use all combo fields(in big events, where is lots of fields, shredder using only my fields). Try to make it for all fields. In big fights I rlly dont want specialize field, but make any field(healing bolts, brutal bolts, burning, posion everything is usefull in big battle like dragons stand events)

CD of this gyro is ok, duration nice, tool belt using for cc. I like it. Anet try to make it simpler for usage (using all fields on the ground) or tell me advice what us your suggestion of using this gyro This is unique and I want to use. Guys if you have some experience with using shredd gyro, give me advice

Guys, do you remember the final story after kill zaitan?? Fireworks, joker at the end and awesome music (fear not this night) this one, give your heart somethink who say: “this story is ended, gj bro” i enjoy this moment and go sleep with smile.

Anet, please make additional ceremeny story, we want stay hold for treahern, meaby not everybody, but i missing true epic end. Thanks if you read it, and if you players of tyria with me share my suggestion.

Ps: but i am still hyped that you will make next story, and i will open my mouth and close it after week.

I try hammer/juggernaut ft scrapper and I can say , is rlly cool BUT too simple. I play enginner over 2 years and i missing skill versatility trough kits.

But scrapper traits is amazing. I combine this elite with explosions and firearms. I run condi build. Yea i loose some survival abilities, but i can solo everything. With condi I have sustain EHP like hammer/juggernaut but much bigger dmg(after 10sec of start fight).

I think that engi was, be and will be class od versatility. I hope that anet dont push us(or only me) to one build and gyros. I found only few usage of gyros(but they work perfect in this situtions) keep testing and meaby i will post some build too. hf

Meaby I am crazy but i run full sinister pistol/pistol. (Explosive, firearms, tools). First time i trying my love, power granade build(you know, acid bomb, jump shot, 100nades..) but hostiles at new locations are tough, and have betrer dmg. I change strategy and counting on rally.
My strategy: jump into mass numbered enemy group, use smoke bomb, fire and conclusive, pistol 3,4,mortar 4,,3,2,swap granades , flash, sharpnel… rally, fire bomb, pistol 4..rally… at this time is almost every mobs dead.

I really want try tanky scrapper. But i not have rdy eq. Then i want try sinister scrapper. Some synergies are really usefull (like protection after heal skill , and add tougness). 1 slot i change for some def gyro (condi remove or bulwark)

Btw: hammer skills looks good… but for ME is tottaly useless. I like swaping kits and have brutal versatility for every situation. For me, elite give me skills, that I can use at centrain situations…i dont image run with 5 gyros 0.o

400hp is not horrible… problem is if you have alts. After 6 hours playing I unlock 7 skills. (And I also focus masteries). So, if i image my 6 alts.. 6×400= 2400hp… phew.. Please nerf elite hp req for alts.

Map: 10/10 (sorry but I really like it)
Elite spec scrapper(main) : 5/10
Fun: 8/10

I read that many ppl frustrating from new maps. Idk why..

Amazing enviroment, first time i moved my camera up and my breath stoped. I don’t know who has got this idea of vertical zone, but I salute him.

I play gw2 really long, and I must tell you Anet, you have mind for epic encounters. From battle of LA to HOT you work very well and I wish to continue with this concept.

PS: Meaby one day I stop play GW, but i never forget on tybalt leftpaw and his: “I am demmi beatlestone…, and two, mmm apples”

I think that 400 HP is not horrible. Horrible is obtaining this hp. I accept that they meaby dont want to make elite specialization in few hours, but for “after work chill players” is really long run. Meaby make few daily hp obtain. Dont change mind to make it all in couple hours, but dont make massive thousands hours grind.

I registered too. At “night events” me and another 2 players climb up to undiscovered place where is legend or champ boss? Never mind. We try to wait for another ppl but nobody come. This situation repeat twice this day. Meaby its need time. Ppl now enjoy haloween and discovering masteries

Big burst, nice timing, no mistake. I with static discharge build can beat him. But i must have a bit lucky

Try this http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqKlUUh+sYJWwWLWYLK6gv4TewRsEDgvkKDPAA-TxhHAB5q+zuK/o9BAE0+DAcCAqVPAUKBJFAMrBA-e
And others say somethink about this condi build :-) it seems that can be good. I just not really much test it. Meaby ft can be changing for condi clean situations. Elite mortar or sneak… meaby

I really like vertical zones. Its new, and its really amazing if you are look up and see undiscovered places. GJ anet, GJ.

Good afternoon , i have problem with daily. If i gathering or healing it will add me % points sure but if i have aquatic slayer , crafting or veteran slayer i haven’t got any added %.
