This video shows off all of the weapons the Engineer can use and looks at all of the individual weapon skills. It also has a look at all of the healing, utility & elite skills the Engineer has at it's disposal. It then goes on to look at the core specializations the Engineer has and what each individual trait does for your character.

      @@HeroicFlamingo hey there, just got back to this vid after some months because I'm still playing and maining my charrgineer, I love him so :) I got the game on 50% off as I was totally hooked, then I invited my girlfriend to play with me and after a month we were able to get her the game on 50% off too, so 2 for 1 I guess hahaha, now she's with 100+ hours and I'm 450+ hahahahah best game ever, last week I started playing wvw and it's a whole new game. Since i invited my gf I leveled a revenant while she was leveling her necro, then I boosted ele and now I'm leveling a Ranger through lvl up books that I get through wvw/dailies. Many things to do and learn about the game, reaching t3/t4 fractals now and may be starting raid training soon, got myself a full berserker ascended set on a month of time gate :D just sharing my experience and some of my deeds hahahahah
      Thx for your videos, nice to see abilities and traits this way, gives some new perspective 1 by one instead of looking at them all in game, I clicked the video to watch knowing that I had watched before and saw that we interacted here in the comments, finally got the game :) its awesome I haven't opened my steam since January

    When I can, Ill post my build but in short, I run a condition core engi, dual pistol. I run a mix of Trailblazer and Dire. Do you think Carrion would be better for WvW? Does toughness help enough to have it in my stats? THanks

    • @HeroicFlamingo
      @HeroicFlamingo  3 года назад +2

      Sounds like a fun build ☺️ I think you're going to need some power in there to do enough damage. Most condi builds use viper's for pure damage but you might be a bit squishy so if you like being a little more solid, Carrion is a potential with the extra vitality 😊 it depends how you want to play but I just think you need to find a way to integrate some power as the doubling up of vitality and toughness could be a bit overkill for a build that is predominantly damage based 😊
