Aug 23, 2024 · Engineer. ANet power-crept all ranged engi builds into irrelevance. I'm doing literally 4k more dps with the spear than with pistols on my condi mech now (38k with pistols, 42k with spear). Power rifle builds have all been dead for a while, and shortbow never was a viable damage weapon. Even if I play kitless with 5 signets, spear does 2k more ...
Dec 26, 2023 · 306. Posted January 1. The best race lorewise for engi is asura because of the racial skills and the elite golem is without a doubt the best. Imagine before the the 6th rune nerf, having a golem summoned, asecond golem due the elite skill, and the jade mech.. an army of golems, crazy.
Apr 16, 2024 · Engineer. Turrets and overcharging. So, I come from way back in the early days of GW2. Engi turrets didn't always only overcharge on drop. At one point, their respective buttons flipped over to overcharge them, and when dropped, the respective toolbelt skills became each turret's respective detonation button.
Nov 4, 2021 · As power its a bit harder - holo uses sword/pistol or rifle, mechanist uses rifle or mace/pistol and scrapper uses hammer. Look which weapon you play on other classes and look if its also usable on engi and craft it. Like me that played chrono and crafted shining blade and is also able to use it on holo.
Jan 28, 2022 · Core engi has really poor might application, sigil of strength will build up might in a long fight, it is possbile to maintain a total of 10-15 stacks, considering we have 58% boon duration. Sigil of geomancy has 2 purposes. The primary purpose is the synergy with the trait sanguine array. This trait will give you one stack might every time you ...
Jan 8, 2024 · 3) You’ll find many long term Engi mains agreeing, BUT that was the point, to simplify Engi for the masses. Similar to how Mesmer got Virtuoso simplifying their play style. EOD as a whole just gave us a lot of easy builds. They actually nerfed flamethrower on release so that Superconducting Signet was better…
Jul 26, 2024 · Additionally, the biggest problem with Engi overall is that most damage-related builds have been funneled into using the Nade kit alongside Explosives/Firearms. You're required to go this route to do any reasonable amount of damage, which straight up cripples your survivability by limiting your ability to take other traits lines.
Nov 16, 2023 · Engineer already has plenty of ranged explosive damage goodies, but mace + shield is our only support weapon at all, so it's cool to be getting a ranged support weapon alongside mesmer that isn't just one or two skills from elixir gun and mortar-kit 5 and that's it. Edited November 17, 2023 by Icefyer.9208. 1.
Jul 31, 2018 · Posted August 3, 2018. I play both of them a lot. Both Rev and Engi are pretty good. Rev is better at boons and ranged damage. Engineers are better at AoE damage and also have blind fields. Both have a strangely wide toolbox. As for how they compare: Raids: Revenant is better.
Jan 30, 2020 · @Batel.9206 said:My two engineers are an asura - for obvious reasons - and a sylvari. The sylvari is an interesting concept; my guy has spent most of his life around charr, working as a scrapper for warbands in the general area he's at, so he uses a lot of their technology (and as little sylvari-inspired stuff as possible...long story short, an encounter with Nightmare scared him so badly he ...
