SteepledHat.1345:

I’m sorry. What could possibly have driven you to not conduct yourself with dignity and kindness? There’s never a reason to be rude.

This is a game, and no one should have to deal with someone spewing obscenity at them censored or not.

I bought this game, I have the right to talk about BBC’s.

I have to say, Helseth has quite the beautiful locks of hair.

SteepledHat.1345:

No, but cause context is half of what makes offensive language offensive. Saying something negative about or at another player is much worse than saying something in general. So even if you’re seeing **** you could still be offending someone.

Then change the ban description to “Banned for hurting a poor souls feelings over the internet” instead of “inappropriate language”.

Breakin.2409:

who the kitten is vyndetta? all i see is people saying he carries teams and whatnot but it’s the first time i’m hearing of him. got me genuinely interested

Worst ranger in NA AUS CH GER kitten /p>

Isn’t it abit ironic to ban someone for “inappropriate language” when you give every player an option to not see the language? It is actually the people who chose to remove the filter that is in fault, please stop banning people for “inappropriate language”.

Visionary.5681:

I love the fact that whenever any arguements about class mechanics go on, no one bothers to mention Necro

Its a little depressing as a Necro player.

nerf necro plz

aydenunited.5729:

You posted that in less time than you had to actually watch the video, btw.

I did watch the video, just after I posted my opinion. And I don’t need to watch a video to know because I play engi. Engi base damage is horrible.

Not enough damage to take down someone imo.

Guanglai Kangyi.4318:

The way grenades and flamethrowers work is different from other ranged weapons. They have an arc like the thief’s Cluster Bomb. It’s silly to think they should work the same way.

you guys are all bad. I am so good that sataar kicked me out of his party

i never kicked u. we won like 4 straight paids with u then we had a team mate come back from what i remember. u are great though i cant wait until everyone sees how good everyone is instead of having the elitist mentality that only they are good.

hueheuehuehuehu, I am so hollywood

Lettuce be reality beef tea cereal here. If this game ever became an esport, the china men would stomp all of yous.

You win internets. This is what I call a perfect riposte. Chapeau bas!

I can agree Natural Zoo Keeper is the best ranger if you can agree Leman (me) is the best necro in da house (a.k.a the universe).

Deal?

I can confirm that Leman is the best necro (im a girl btw)

QtHman.9510:

Lol natural as always troll you dont even do paids LMAO

I don’t do paids often but we did almost beat you guys 480-500. Not trolling this time. Me, exe, lil crysis, D C E. forget the last guy.

And the only reason I don’t do paids often is because the q is 1000 hours long and I don’t have a team that plays at a specific time all the time.

Why isn’t there the EU vs. NA argument in this thread yet?

Because Japan and China are better than both

My team of randoms almost beat QT in final round 480-500. QT BAD HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HUEHEUHEUHEUHEUH

(true story)

Lol you must be a poor soul who only hotjoins and lost to a ranger in raid of the capricorn. That being said, kill the pet or cc the pet. It’s not that hard. Oh and stability completely nullifies rangers whole downed game.

means nothing.

Everyone in the mist knows that that ranger is the best ranger in NA AUS CH GER kitten But he doesn’t have top QP cause he’s too alpha for QP. This mysterious ranger will ALWAYS be top ranger and top engineer 5ever. Will anyone ever pass him in skill and looks?

Yes I agree thief is boring to fight but there’s nothing more satisfying when you know you killed a stealthed thief just to have him destealthed on the ground.

I’d rather have bunker guardians nerfed opposed to thieves, I don’t like the idea that they can just pop 1 cool down and sit in a bubble while still considered to be contesting the point and survive for a good few seconds.

As far as i can see your “main weapon” is the grenade kit, right? In that case you should go 30 into explosives so you can get the Grenadier trait, plus i dont think that the Scope trait is really useful.

All in all this is no build for me, but i hope you’ll enjoy it

That trait is overrated and not neccesary.
And scope is a underrated trait which I think is pretty kitten good for when you burst / when you are rezz bombing and corpse bombing

Grenadier adds 50% more damage to your grenades, 50% more condition duration and damage, 50% more vuln. and 25% more range. And adds another chance to proc stuff. Its massive.

Last time i checked, Scope was still bugged and doesnt do anything.

Your not seeing the sarcasm here is disturbing.

No I’ve got you beat in NA. But I’m coming to take your SWE championship belt from you this week.

How to play guide : Slick shoes.

Serious explanation for my beloved engineer forumers — >
This is a glassy roaming build

Utilities :

Slick shoes – Really underrated skill, if used properly this ensures a get away and can also be used offensively. Use it in proper situations such as interrupting stomps / interrupting rezzes. Or if you wanna be a bad kitten you can keep a poor soul on the ground for a good 5 seconds.

Grenade kit – Great aoe damage / condition spamming (hard to remove proper conditions when you spam basically all the junk ones for your team)
Grenade barrage is basically the “insta-gib” skill. Use in conjunction with your net shot / OCS / jump shot / slick shoes

Elixir S (you can use the rezzing elixir instead if you really want) – The self rez / team rez is pretty valuable but I hate the feel of using that elixir as you drink it and basically nothing happens. I love becoming a midget spewing out oil out of my kitten tripping people behind me. Use this to midget trip everyone or to secure stomps and rezzs. Or as a regular stun breaker.

I’m too lazy to explain traits but you can ask question if you want.

Immortal.3647:

oh before i forget, today i was able to destroy my own trebuchet. i got ejected (happens quit often) and then i couldnt reenter the trebuchet, i could only destroy it (“enemy trebuchet destroyed” it said) and then after repairing it i could use it again.

Nah brah that’s just another mesmer exploit. Move along.

or maybe the fact that a giant flamethrower is somehow missing the trebuchet.

I solo him all the time.. it’s his opening move so do this

I’m not talking about if he’s soloable bro. I can solo him too, I’m just saying there’s clear disadvantages of being on chieftain side.

Arheundel.6451:

In the end mesmers whining on GcD are completely out of touch with reality really…They even go that far and say that GcD on ele attunements are justified because..attunements are like weapon swap, lmao, that must be the reason why we’ve got 15s CD on attunement swap plus the 1s GCD

I remember when swapping attunements was on a 7 (?) second CD in beta…

ahh the good ole days..

The funny thing is the developers say that ele being a high skill cap profession, it’s an excellent candidate for GCD, therefore a skilled ele player should be perfectly able to execute a combo without the game doing it for you, you know? manual aiming-long delay-short radius ect ect.
Still this game got professions like mesmer where the game does 90% the job for them, auto-targeting, auto-positioning and large radius, and apparently a GCD on their main mechanic is not OK, and yet the ele got a 1s GCD on its main mechanic on top of 15s CD for each attunement.
To add even more fuel to the fire we can even state that an ele geared toward offense would still do less dmg then an equally offensive specced mesmer while stil having less survivability, isn’t it funny? Anet nerf a profession to the ground prior to the game release…everything is ok, now they FIX a bug for a profession and all hell break through

Why is the engineer class getting unnoticed in this thread? That kittening class is the real OP class in the game.

Chrisp.6924:

I completely support this post. He axe kicks me all the time. I can’t avoid it if I get hit with the axe. Although most the times Natural think’s he is 1v5’ing, I’m actually there invisible shooting them in perma-non-breaking stealth. I SUPPORT THIS! NERF CHIEFTAN!
-Love Tekliosi <3

so what, hes slightly harder. if you evade the axe coming for you, it never comes back for you. and if u miss that one, u can still evade it coming back, which gives you 2 chances to avoid the combo. and if you avoid that, hes easy peasy. kiting / ranged / immobilizes help. as a ranger i can easily solo either of them with full health at the end. but i also practice in the mists

That’s besides the point. If you cripple or chill svanir he can’t even touch you. Chieftain can.

This becomes especially annoying when you are fighting a guardian for example because I really need to pay attention to their buffs (mostly protection and stability). But when they have every kitten boon up I have to literally squint and go up to my screen within licking distance just to see the kitten symbols. The symbols are far too small when there are many boons.

Jumper.9482:

possante.8310:

for me 0,25s is fine. dont see why people are complain a lot about it

Because .25s is enough time to be reacted to. Puts it on par with Thief/Warrior.

So in other words people are crying because it is balanced now.

ripshocks.2753:

NaturalPortman.9562:

That would hurt thieves too much, balancing thief is a touchy subject.

I know i was just trying to make them less OP, cause in youtube there are even videos of thieves using stealth to the point where they can be fully stealthed everytime by manipulating the system in an “exploit” way if u see my point.
But thanks for reply friend.

I wouldn’t exactly call it OP, i would call it a broken mechanic. Thieves who can perma stealth usually can’t kill you either.

thieves still use haste and heart seeker spam?

rangers can use quickness with shortbow and longbow and they put a kittenload of damage just by 1spam. at 1200 range!!! 1111111111111

Not really, just strafe left and right there goes all his damage.

????????????

thieves still use haste and heart seeker spam?

tigirius.9014:

Acidic Elixirs should create damaging zones much like the throwup of some of the skales (couldn’t think of a better description). It doesn’t scale with attack scores (but this seems to be a common theme in everything the engineer has, nothing scales with anything we’re wearing, not even healing.) These things need to create zones that do damage and cause zone combos like darkness, poison, fire, water depending on the elixir thrown.

nah bro thats too op. engineer is alrdy pretty op

AprilRain.7649:

NaturalPortman.9562:

That’s not true, every attunement has different ranges and uses. You basically have 5 weapon sets.

Herpa derpa. You’re wrong. Each weapon has different ranges. Each attunement has exactly the same range as the other three attunements do on a single weapon. Also, when did Ele’s get that 5th attunement? My Ele doesn’t seem to have it unlocked yet.

XerxesBlack.5892:

Ok the engineer was my first class and after a brief break to a thief It is back to being my most played and invested in.

From a minimal understanding of the math behind it all, little to no PvP and WvW this is what I have noticed from trying most of the skills in open areas and dungeons.

I am by no means an expert, just a player who stating what i have seen (or thought i saw).

So please, feel free to educate me and give me tips. Everyone knows i can get much better.

Rifle is the best base damage weapon and utility wise (with the net and kick It’s easier to stay alive than P/P or P/S). Pistol seems to be the best with condition type damage (poison, bleed, burning), shield is good in a pinch with it’s bubble power and shocking block but the cool-downs really hamper this as they seem a little long.

I am a turret junkie, I admit it. Unless I am trying to run past foes and have the time to swap to elixirs and such for speed/stun break My 9 will always be my rocket turret and my 8 vaires depending on my mood but it will be a turret. 6 is the HP turret. For My 0 I keep either Elixer X for random CC needs for or if I just wanna Tornado/Hulk OM NOM NOM something, or supply drop for more turrets.

Either way i do wish that turrets would either last as long as the necromancers minions or just do more damage, But I still love them for their distraction and support value.

Mortar is neat but i cannot speak for it’s effectiveness because the only time I could use it without it breaking after about 2 seconds was the Lost Shores against the Karka because there were lots of others to keep Karka happy. I loved how it’s cool-down being equal to it’s lasting time though, seemes fair.

As of now My 7 is the grenade kit. I want to say I am running a… 30/0/30… and some points somewhere else. either way all traits are for grenades or turrets, they vary. Damage is the best I’ve seen with bleed/poison stacking like nuts.

Armor is the full whisper’s set (wanting to get the SE medium with power/precision/toughness) of the afflicted (way more bleed/poison damage).

Thoughts? Tips? slaps to my face? post a reply or message me

Thanks for reading :b

I agree with you. I actually think the rifle is a decent setup as it. It has a knockback, low CD immobilization, a point blank shot with extra conditions, and a pretty nominal autofire. With the right traits, the rifle becomes a pretty formidable weapon. I think rifle is fine for now. I also agree with you on Pistol/Shield. The shield has far too long of CDs to be worth while, the abilities are fine, but a bit much on the CDs.

I’m going to skip turrets for now, since we have touched base on them a bit. I believe they at least need a health buff, and some sort of CD work to make picking them up, or recalling/destroying worth while.

Mortar is unique. I don’t mind it as is. It’s very situational. I actually use it in wvw to take out siege on the top of towers and such, but it doesn’t last long if someone notices me. Maybe tie the health to your stats, and make it only usable by the engineer. I can only use it when no enemies are around, otherwise it gets eliminated pretty fast.

Rifle is great, not sure why they designed it like a shotgun though.

Kardiamond.6952:

This gotta be one of the worse trait we have.

Does anyone actually use it? It does what, like 100 dammage?

Love the images

I would actually put it up there for worst trait in the game lol. Yes it does around 100 damage.

That would hurt thieves too much, balancing thief is a touchy subject.
