Hiya so fairly new on Engi myself but been roaming wvw and doing ranked with them along with my mains, as holo is there certain matchups you prefer S/P over S/Sh? I saw you mentioned on another comment but wasnt sure if it was just feel of the moment or certain specs you want it over others? Thanks!
Hello ! I prefer S/P against people who have blocks or if i need to burst a lot, also if i feel i won't be pressured too much ! But yeah if in front of you, there's a lot of unblockable, in general shield will be useless, so pistol is a great option to immob them and run away, or burst them before they do )
Hi, i'm a new player but I've been watching some pvp gameplay. I've noticed that a lot of higher ranked players use their about face button and not turn their camera around completely. Is there a trick to it? I've been practicing holding down my left mouse button when using about face but after I press it again it turns my camera around.. so I can't cast behind me
About face is an advanced keybind tbh, but yeah, you can use it to cast some spells while running away from your target ( not every spells ), while running you let your left mouse button pressed, press about face, so you are looking the same way but running away instead of going ahead, now you need to manage to press some spells while doing it, and if you want to run ahead again you just press right mouse button with the others, but yes, it's an advanced way to (for example) use the mortar kit and shout them behind your character !
I've upload every keybinds on imgur : imgur.com/a/xvbK17d They are maybe not optimal, i haven't binds some thing that i should have bind, but in general ( with a mmo mouse ) i feel it's confortable, at least for me !
What do you mean ? To make allies and ennemy with a thick health bar ? It's just in general options " Thick party healths bar ", and you can also take on " Show target health percent "
Sure ! The build i'm using : gw2skills.net/editor/?PegAwqlNwOYUsJGKO8WdvXA-DaILjGLgMTAN+GAAA Since the DLC SotO is giving the weapons of other specs, holo can swap between different weapons, hammer is really good, sword/pistol, sword/shield are very good option too, it all depends on what you are playing against. But that's kinda only for PvP / WvW. If you want to play holo in PvE, the only viable option right now is Condi Holo, but in the next balance patch, Power Holo will be a really good option too ! And if you want to know what change on holo compare to the others specs of engi, they get Photon Forge ( F5 ), that switch you into a " new weapon set " for you skills 1 2 3 4 5, you have a Heat bar when you enter Photon Forge, while activate it will go up in heat, and if you are pressing buttons from the photon forge, the heat will go up faster, so you have to manage your heat, if you overheat, you explode, and you can no longer use your tool belt kit for few seconds after that. Depends on the last traits you are using, one is made for you to explode, one is made to give you more heat %, one is made for, when you dodge, you vents heat and it damage nearby ennemies ! To have kinda all the build for engineer you can find them on : metabattle.com/wiki/Engineer And if you want real builds for raids or optimal damage for PvE content, you can check : snowcrows.com/builds/raids/engineer ( both site have builds for all the classes of the game ! ) If you have more question about it, let me know !

What are you keybindings? What do you have for changing weapons and mount?

Spilling to much of that glue, you know it's toxic waste right? 😡💢
I swear it's a biodegradable "glue " shot prototype ! 😇 I will never ever use something toxic on my people like that ... 😈
