after experimenting with just about every trait/utility/weapon combination I feel like it rly doesnt matter what build we use.

sure you can go firearms IP to boost burning dmg, or explosives for grenadier but those traits arent even necessary.

the core nature of engi is to be hybrid, with the way condi dmg scales now cele doesnt give enough offensive stats to be very effective. Cele did not receive a stat boost comparable to the other amulets, its still pretty much the same while every thing else is running 3k power with zerk.

with the current mesmer meta FT is the best anti clone weapon and you can run this kit just fine with out juggernaut. you can run FT in a power or condi build and back it up with alchemy traits for condi clear. next decide if you want your speed boost from inventions or tools? put in your tool kit for the blocks and youre pretty much done.

at this point you can just pick a random random amulet/sigils/runes/weapons and get about the same performance. oh yeah, standard healing turret and what ever 3rd utility best suits your preference.

edit: try this random build I put together

This might be a dumb question, but I’ve been looking at this build and others in the thread and I was wondering how you run an HGH build with only one elixir?

Sorry if I’m missing the obvious!

2 of the abilities on Elixir Gun are classed as elixirs.

3 – acid bomb, super elixir & the toolbelt

Thanks for the clarification!

Hey folks,

I am a somewhat active player (EST) on Kaineng looking for a guild to join. I’m still fairly new to the game (long time GW1 player), but I’m looking to mainly do Dungeons and WvW. I am currently leveling a Necro, Engi, and Mesmer and they’re almost to 80. Yes, I have all my shots. No, I don’t know where the car is parked. And yes, I’m a big fan of the 5 second rule.

As for a guild, I am looking for one that obviously runs dungeons and wvw groups. I’m a laid back person just looking for some fun after school/work, but at the same time I want to play well. I take the time to learn my class as well as I can and it’s nice to play with players who do the same. Ideally the guild is established (i.e. not 1 month old) and has something resembling standards for member behavior (i.e. no baby-mama drama and homophobia is lame).

Anyways, if it sounds like a match, just reply or send me a PM (though no making-out til the 3rd PM…I’m a classy guy).
