I had a lot of time off due to an injury and realllly sunk in hours into guild wars 2 for the first time ever and got addicted. Tried so many classes for hours but none stuck with me like the mech engineer. Spamming turrets with a giant robot doing all the heavy hits while I chill a few feet back and shoot I know it's simple, but I love it. I'm an older guy and don't have the reaction like I use to in my younger competitive days, so this works great for me in pve! Thanks for the guide!
I love my engies. I have 2 of them and both have at least 2 elite specs unlocked for both. It was my favorite profession when the game came out and is still my favorite.
This is probably my favorite class in any MMO I've played. There is SO much versatility in the ways you can approach every situation that it really never ever gets old for me.
Great video. I just returned to GW2 after a 5 year break and basically not much playtime and THIS video sold me the engineer once more. Awesome videos man, keep it up and thank you again!
In my opinion, especially with all elite weapons moving to core proffs, Engineer should get weapon swap in combat, and only lose in-combat weapon swap if they use a 1 or more kits in the heal/utility/ or elite slot. I like mortar and grenades, but I'd rather be able to be a Hammer/Rifle scrapper. Furthermore, with having to have at least 1 kit for good builds 90% of.the time, it means you lose out on build diversity because most of the time one of those slots gets reduced to a choice of 3 or if the heal/elite slot a choice of 1 lol so not a choice.
I just learned a new thing thanx to this video :D I had missed that the Mech can blast from the sky when its "away" if you pick that specific talent. Thankyou :D
Great Video On The Engineer. I have one that I never levelled past 20 ish.. Makes me want to jump back in. Now for the love of all things GW2, make a similar guide for the Revenant! It seems to be so under represented. I want to make one, but not even sure where to start. Anyone with good links to Revenant builds, reply in the thread.
I`m playing "Hammer or Flamethrower Scrapper" as a damager or a healer most of the time and I love it ... and when I`m a Heal Scrapper in group events for instance all the other random players around me love it too and even some commanders suddenly like to be near me.
Started gw2 about 2 weeks ago...and im inlove with this game...started with the nectro and gonna start my second char as a engineer ...i tried the ranger and i didnt feel it at all
Great video! Was going to make a Mechanist when I return from Vacation, what do you think about the spec, is it really that lame? Ive never actually tried Engineer in my life haha. Greetings!
I created an account yesterday so Im very new to gw2, I took level 10 and was gifted a mount that I can use for 10hours. If I wanted to keep it I would have to buy an expansion. I clicked the tab for buying the full game and got confused, wich expansion would you recommend getting as a new player?
Hmm. Personally I'd suggest actually this new expansion. It includes obviously the new content but allows you to get the skyscale (one of the two available flying mounts). It does not include any of the elite specializations (subclasses) however so that is a down side. If your more inclined to the story I'd say heart of thorns and purchase in order of the expac list. Regardless each of the expacs offer something great!
I believe the sky scale will only work in the new expansion areas. I’d personally recommended heart of thorns and path of fire because they usually get discounted and bundled together plus tons of elite specs and story content.
Get the First Two. You can still get a lot of mounts, Two amazing expansions with lots of contents and Two elite specs for each profession. SOTO is not worth to buy first.
What do you think about quickness Herald for new players? From what ive read Its got easy rotation And i enjoy the support playstyle, idk if its viable enough tho
Q herald is honestly God tier. You don't even need much concentration support. If any really. Q heal herald with full Harrier gear is an amazing support. DPS version is great too. There's no real rotation required, just need the pip upkeep.
if you are brand new to guild wars and hasnt learned the finer details about dodging etc.. use engi with bombs.. auto attack and kite.. mobs will follow and stand right in the explotions.. while not actually that fun to play. you will be alive and mobs will be dead... full power build. firearms, explotions and tools.. spec for static discharge.. tho not as powerful as it once was.. core game enemies will melt...
I will slowly convert more engineer players into yolomancers. Nothing else in the game quite feels the same as fully oneshotting someone from stealth as an engineer
ua-cam.com/video/X9kCLjHLfVs/v-deo.html This is a Staff build I use to great effect! I plan on having an updated build guide once Secrets of the Obscure releases too!
@@CaffeinatedDad Ty. I really like elem, is hard but i have fun with it, and i dont know how to make builds, gear and which weapon i have to use or training.
There does appear to be a bugger with mechanist. If you have turrets equipped the tool belt skills will still trigger with the mech skill. Like regenerating mist with heal turret.
i wish grenade kit and bomb kit were deleted and we got a better explosives kit it could still have a bomb and grenades in it, but as it stands grenade kit is trash to use and bomb kit means death by boredom seriously would rather watch paint dry then use bomb kit

Dual pistols and rocket jump make the profession feel like a mandalorian
I saw an image in my Discord where they had a fashion set up like that!
I love my engies. I have 2 of them and both have at least 2 elite specs unlocked for both. It was my favorite profession when the game came out and is still my favorite.
It was my first like major main when I started making gw2 content! Love the class!

I have really been enjoying your videos. I just came back after a year of being gone and all your info have been very helpful. Thank you.
Hey thanks! I felt like alot of players were in my same boat and it would be more beneficial to have a way for them to ease back into the game.
I`m playing "Hammer or Flamethrower Scrapper" as a damager or a healer most of the time and I love it ... and when I`m a Heal Scrapper in group events for instance all the other random players around me love it too and even some commanders suddenly like to be near me.

Engineer just hits differently tbh!
ooh! thank you for this. i just started playing an engineer for the first time.
Excellent timing! There you go!
Great video! Was going to make a Mechanist when I return from Vacation, what do you think about the spec, is it really that lame? Ive never actually tried Engineer in my life haha. Greetings!
Honestly its fun being powerful lol not super intensive and still great fun!

Great video, thanx. I llike this Class fantasy but its quite chalenging to learn it. Meabe one day i give a chance my femail Norn genius🌬👍🔝🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Engineering genius is an awesome fantasy play!

Q heal herald with full Harrier gear is an amazing support. DPS version is great too.

Quick herald is very good! Useful as well! I have less experience with the herald but I've seen quite a few!
Best class profession in any game by far
Do you have a scrapper build for engie that uses rifle?
if you are brand new to guild wars and hasnt learned the finer details about dodging etc.. use engi with bombs.. auto attack and kite.. mobs will follow and stand right in the explotions.. while not actually that fun to play. you will be alive and mobs will be dead... full power build. firearms, explotions and tools.. spec for static discharge.. tho not as powerful as it once was.. core game enemies will melt...
Honestly the rifle for core engineer is so strong there are times I don't even use a weapon kit!
Thanks, I just created an engineer!
Glad it helped!
Didn’t revenant get more votes on the poll? Excited for the revenant one
