Forgot to talk about Pros/Cons so here it goes
Pros: Good Mobility,
-Lots of Defensive Utilities
-Access to alot of AoE condis
-Very hard to chase
-Ability to peel both offensively and defensively (via healing turret, elixer r (substitute for S), Crate and stealth, AS WELL AS offensively with chill nades, blind nades static shot, various CC, etc
-Most damage is ranged and Low Risk/High reward
Cons: Subpar condi removal (2 with turret, immune to 1 every 15s)
-Not much power damage (struggles to kill Engi with condi immune (once below 25% with no condis)(Diamond Skin)(Beserker Stance))
-One of the few classes with a hard counter (necro)
-Some skills cannot be relyied on (Magnet Pull can throw people and port them)(Poisen Volley is horribly innaccurate)

In conclusion Engi is at a very good spot with its Low Risk/High Reward damage, we even this out with extremely active play as well as bad condi removal

The guide is linked ( too long to post here) Please check it ouT!!

I play warrior on the NA server, over 14,000 wins on warrior with 94.7% win ratio…. I played on a few teams back at release and I am currently looking for a team. I am a professional gamer and can play any day and time of the week. Im fluent in 18 languages including English. My name is Aaron im 43 years old and have been a professional gamer all my life. I won the CoD XP 1 million dollar tounament back here in 2011. As well as a total of 1.8million in the Dota 2 invitational last year. Ive dedicated myself to gaming and my passion shows. I completely understand the class and I have over 1000 wins on every single class putting me in a position to fully understand the game. I rotate flawlessly. I however might not be able to fill the shoes of Wakkey. He was most definately your best player and without him yall are doomed. YET I look foward to playing with yall PS genyen is 10

One word: Brilliant

THIS THREAD MUST BE CONSTRUCTIVE
A lot of people dislike the current state of balance as well as how the devs are approaching it. Having seen many complaints I have not seen many constructive tips or complaints that say how they COULD do better. Depending on how much of the released patch notes were correct, it seems they took some ideas from the “Documents” from various players, BUT what else can they do? NCsoft obviously hasn’t put much money into it, (and for good reason) because it has been unsuccessful and has not grown much. For starters I think Arena Net has to step up and implant the 2v2/3v3 arena, OR simply officiate an organization like fight club which has 350 members in less than 1 week, only focusing on 2v2s/3v3s and their fake ladder. Anet doesnt even need to put money incentive behind it at first, they can simply use gems as reward and either implant a 2v2/3v3 ranked system or give players like Blu and Nothing the control/power they need to successfully run said games. Secondly I hope that ladders and seasons have something along this line or something even better. I’d also like to see patch notes before they are released… too many times Anet has released HUGE patch notes without even consulting the pvp community. The pvp community may have some bias feedback, but I am sure that there are probably problems with the next update that could potentially be fixed by releasing the notes to be judged and critiqued by the community.
Thanks for your time, Backpack

Hello! Backpack here looking for a team!!! Im supa good at stuff here is a list about me and my accolades
http://mistpedia.net/mediawiki/index.php/Backpack
IM also giving out lessons how to play Guild wars esportss
For a personal reference talk to Master Blinxo the Brilliant

Nah im kidding Zoose is very good, infact he is probably the best blind ele in NA…

Needs Improvement.

I like the word play “countless dodges” JUST LIKE the mesmer Countless who wastes all of his dodges… much wow +1

i eat engineers for lunch on my zerker ranger.

http://youtu.be/-HiYUlhsO_M

so skilled, much wow

engineers are crap. ive never been beaten by an engi both on my spirit and zerker ranger in tpvp. i dont even need to try. the only professions that can beat me 1v1 are condi warriors and minion necros when i’m playing as a spirit ranger.

Hello my name is Backpack. I play Engineer. Please come reck me. Il be in the dark alley (watchout there are no lights). Lets 1v1…

JinDaVikk.7291:

LOL so many people so dumb.

For starters NO decap engi should use elix s unless in skyhammer.
Next p/s is kittened. Rifle is ez decap and is far superior.

Elix gun shouldn’t be used either. I c how stun break + heal can be helpful…. but not worth it. You need the CC and stun break isn’t as good when using melandru.

Big bomb is so ez to dodge, block, blind, invuln, evade etc. ANY ranger thief or guardian worth anything would never get hit by it.
FT on the other hand is lower cd and has no animation until after the CC.

Dying to a mesmer 1v1 shouldn’t happen. I don’t. I can’t full cap very well due to the amount of pressure being put out but if I kite off point (after decap) its easy to survive forever in that 1v1. At the very least Ill win that over time.

Thieves are still the main and only issue. Not in the 1v1 sense but that they alone can rotate back quickly enough to make my attempt useless.

Oh the irony. -Backpack

Anti.9156:

i think the change only affects utility turrets.. The healing turret would be stated under “healing skills”
also they gave every turret a new cd, except the healing turret. so i guess they dont change the healing turret at all (which is good in my opinion bc theres no reason for it)

correct me if im wrong, but i didnt see something about the healing turret in this notes

YEa the change to turrets probably doesnt include healing TURRET…

Vapula.8210:

I guess you missed the part that said base CD would be changing as well. For all we know, the cool down will remain at 15 seconds when picked up. Maybe it was done to put a harsher consequence on exploding it in the water field. Either way, its a little early to start panicking and declaring HT as a new heal signet. Love a fellow engine

I dont listen to inferior engis Zorry, it will be 30/15 for asura 20/10 for humans ( they are making smaller chars less OP) thanks for reading…

No they said they were only increasing it if you are asura, Humans( i play that) will still be 20/10 respectively

After reading the patch notes reducing CD from picking up turret by 50% makes it a 5k heal 2 condi removal and almost 1k regen on a 10S cd… I main engineer and pick up my turret almost every time, with this add on +backpack regenerator ( gauging i spend 90 of my time in kits and its bugged to work when im not in kits) is a 5.6k (10s x6)=33.6k per min + backpack regen 6k per min = approx 40k Heal per minute with 0 healing power ….. not to mention this heal is AoE a water field and will remove 12 condis per minute now….. this makes healing sig look like childs play… i would already argue that healing turret is OP, this is honestly just embarrassing….. Love backpack fellow OP engineer

Hello my name is backpack so far this year I’ve gone 83-2 in team leaderboards, not with a team but simple super pugs… the rewards are immense and we practically never lose… at one point in this game I lost ALOT, losing more than half of my games, but through practice and playing better players, I met up with better players and got better myself… I encourage you to fight these better teams/pugs to increase your skill…. …if you really just want rewards go to hj

after reading all the posts from various good players IE ken and clueless players IE jin i will say this….. Decap engi is and most likely always will be a joke at “top tier”, whether or not you call the best teams on NA that or not idc…. It is hard countered by d/p thief as well as 4 stab warrior… I recall playing your pug last night and the second you saw wakkey u had to swap classes, and u still went 0-3 vs him…. the build is not only pointless but an embarrassment to PVP as a whole…. i understand its usefulness in solo q where correct rotations are a rare occurrence, but vs coordinated teams it will get “juggled” and prove itself useless…. the reason it “worked” in EU is becasue its an extremely different play style where teams are more likely to zerg than fight even fights, often leaving bunkers to 1v2 and 1v3… this is possibly the reason it “worked” in EU, but in NA where even numbered fights take place your build is useless, not only can u never fullcap a warrior, but you will eventually die to one, secondly as ken stated a thief can decap and get back to the fight 10x faster and has other purposes…. also what happens if your team is 5v4… u cant teamfight with your build at all so your team will lose the teamfight rather quickly then they can 1v2 or 1v3 you while your team re spawns #GG Please stop calling this build good, it provides a false sense of skill and only works against “bad” players and uncoordinated teams… Seeing as that is who you play often, HF and enjoy not succeeding top tier! Love Backpack aka Not useless Engi

Lets get some facts straight:
1: I will never die 1v1 to a warrior.
2: 4 stab warrior doesn’t counter me. Takes longer to decap but not counter.
3: I swapped because of Caed. You will notice how he won’t join match if he knows im playing. Thats his hope of countering me. Sad that this game is build wars2.
4: PF was a very high ranked team in eu running decap build without boon rip. They still did very well.
5: Thieves can’t guarantee back point decap. If other team has a thief they can rotate back fast enough and cause a 1v1. Which is how game is supposed to be. I’m not trying to defend decap’s existence I still want it nerfed due to me winning vs 7 professions guaranteed.
6: I can still decap/beat thieves. Only good ones beat me. That being said they are also only ones able to rotate back to home fast enough to make my decap worthless. That’s why they are my counter.
7: Full capping can take 20-30 seconds but still easy even against warriors. Some just take a bit longer than others.
8: All the decap engi needs is during an even 4v4 at mid a decap on far for 15 seconds to be “even” in terms of investment. Anything more is giving my team an advantage.
9: cannot compare NA anything to EU as NA sucks. Only reason I’m on NA atm is college class is during EU prime time.
10: Everything works in NA solo q its a disaster. Eu solo q > NA team q

Great… Please 1v1 wakkey not ur subpar warrior friends… Every top team has a thief IE ur already countered… if NA sucks y do u get rickrolled in team q, and lastly address a situation your team is 4v5 Mid you have a 2 cap…. if you stay this way the other team wins mid and can push and kill u…. if your team pulls out to sides it will either be a 3v3 and a 2v2 or a 4v5 and u alone again… if your in the 2v2 or the 3v3 your team will lose that fight.. Please respond with reason not random kitten k thnx

Decap engi is not meant to full cap..once he got the point neutral 1v1 he already won, dunno what do you mean by “even” fights but if point is yours and someone can manage to neutralize it in less than 20 secs while you can do pretty much nothing i call it everything but unuseful…and anyway about NA playstyle i still remember when someone called Teldo (One of the few players who deserve capital letter into my posts) used to make a mess with bomb-decap engi vs your “top” NA teams, let’s say that you in NA are just lucky ppl don’t play lame meta so much cause in terms of pure effectiveness NA is still miles behind….just take a look at international tournaments…do you have a more enjoyable meta? Maybe. Do you have stronger meta? Oh god…don’t think so…there’s a reason why top international teams had always been EU

SO even if a decap is achieved you’re practically afk 1v1 on their neutral point for 20s (until warrior kills you) meanwhile in 20s a thief could have decaped your point gotten back to fight and ganked someone gg? Your statement for NA might be true, but the teams that beat NA don’t run a decap engi (CM, 55hp monks, etc) and Teldo wasnt a decap engi, he was a 1v1 engi, He could win fights as well as decap, not just bunker 1v1 (entirely different concept/send a warrior in this meta and Teldo wouldnt win)

Sounds like a player skill issue to me

Just got word from a certain dev… Eles are being removed from the game and are being replaced with a new light armor class… passivemancer…. which as the name hints is entirely passive… the only time you need to touch your keyboard is to type on the forum al your complaints…. due to your lack of player skill..

MM is just a cluster of AI mediocre in 1v1 agaisnt alright players and it is a terriblr waste of a class in a teamfight in tpvp

Well MM was in your statement as viable so your point is irrelevant

yes but if played flawlessly necro is better imo.. playing flawlessly is obv not a reality for the current state of gw2

If executed it is superior to other comps

A necro shOuld be on his teams side ex. Forrest necro should be on ledge or stairs and have worm to port up to ledge… if he is on stairs and the enemy team over extends on him his whole team should peel ie guard gives prot.. warrior aoe stuns , ranger sits on thief or engi and the necro should be turning away and have his camera flipped so he can place marks….. biggest mistakes are backpedaling which does nothing.. and but being offensive… this game is pressure counter pressure… if you aren’t putting pressure your team won’t be successful… obviously this whole “rotAtion” of peels isn’t easy so most teams aren’t successful CC does it well with posi and they are successful

Necros are top tier, most necros suck at getting away from pressure, they still have the best aoe Condi pressure as well as some of the best utilities to kill bunkers and focused targets…. the only thing they lack is mobility which they make up for with death shroud and defensive utilities like flesh worm most necros I see suck at positioning themselves in a teamfight which gets them juggled and despite the fact that thief is amazing.. they should get flexed on by peels, a combination of good positioning and successful offensive peels from teammates, necro can dominate a fight

I agree world hunger should be solved….right after eles are nerfef

The numbers show everything and the passive is still way too strong. The only time activating the signet is the right move, is if your going to die with only the passive aka 1l hp or less with condis or pressure on you
