Beriorn: If you want to play an Engineer in GW2 you have one of three options:
- Basic Mechanicst who lets their robot do all the heavy lifting and tanking while they pewpew away at the enemy.
- 8000 IQ Holosmith who knows the exact timing of all of their skills and can calculate a dozen moves in advance of what to use when for maximum efficiency.
- 8 IQ Scrapper who uses gyros for buffs, whips out the flamethrower engineering kit and sets everything on fire. Not the best damage, but it's easy on the brain.
CivilizedMisanthrope: My engineer ist constantly standing in front of a skritt in LA trading items once a week for some weird tokens he isn‘t even using himself
iamboringvideos6832: Meanwhile all elite specs having charr in the art.
spookyplaguedoctor5714: My partner mains engineer, can confirm they're very smart
I.Simmonds: I tried to go holosmith, but fucking up your rotation is too brutal. I main an elementalist ..holosmith is truly unforgiving.
yolkcheeks: I am so bad at engineer but I have so much affection for the class vibe! My festival-dedicated character is silly asura scrapper who runs footraces in his rocketboots for work, while my holosmith is a buff disaster lesbian who spent half of her PoF run trying to impress/cheer up Kasmeer.
heyfell4301: I'm wondering what an Engineer of each race would look like, since specifically Norn Engis are really hard to imagine (Sylvari too, but with Scarlet Briar we do have an idea of what they look like).
