Lacko.6572 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Hello, fellow engi mains, are you loving your holo and would u like to be a little competitive or you just want to run an extremely strong holo build in general for all purposes, except maybe for raids. Then it is time to get that sword shield action going on ! You can see me performing with these builds in the video above.Builds I used in the video: My most used general build that does well against the majority of encounters, you can NEVER go wrong by playing this build (recommended):http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?PegAw6lZwsYSsLWKe6S5PNA-zVhYghAzIMSIqSEjCagRIkgLjMTgKKA1uIhxG4tUlZE-wWhy Mortar kit ?Mortar kit is extremely strong as well as extremely underestimated elite, Yes it will require more skill than elixir X or Laser, and it expands your potential even more. the fields from mortar kit are extremely significant in fights and you will also have access to multiple fields other than Waterfield, whilst your water fields are the most important, while you don't have them, you can trigger aoe chill, aoe weakness and many more things, by using one of your many combo finishers, and don't even get me started on the mortar 4 blinding field, this skill can single-handedly carry fights Why Iron blooded over elixir trait, especially since you run 2 elixirs? Both of those traits are very potent and will benefit you a lot. With this build, you will nearly always have well above 5 boons, which makes the iron blooded trait superior.Condi Counter - With the current meta being very condi heavy this build is very potent, this is why I was able to beat the condi daredevil in the video so comfortably-http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?PegAw6lZwsYSMMWKe6SZPNA-zVhYghAzIMSIqSEjCagRIkgLjMTgKKA1uIhxG4tUlZE-wPower Counter - very recommended when fighting against a power burst heavy classes such as Spellbreakers or Heralds and even other holos-http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?PegAw6lZwsYSsJWKe6S5vMA-zVhYghAzIMSIqSEjCagRIkgLjMTgKKA1uIhxG4tUlZE-wElixir holo - I used to play this before the elixir X nerf, it is still very strong and much easier to play than my main buildhttp://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAsenUUBlXhlID2XBkfhFDDT8c8B2A93weYQMMAMO6LA-jVTBQBYUZCCVpAfaBgkSwLq0ATqIkPdAA4BAcQVQIy+DcRJUCVHQDnAgAAHAn38A48zP/8zPvrP/8zP/8zP/8zPvUAjOZD-wPvP variationhttp://gw2skills.net/editor/?PegAw6lZwsYSsLWKe6S5PNA-z5gXGZmARXAeMA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asterix.9614 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Your first build is insane, poor rifle holos become dumbstruck when I run rings around them lol, only problem for me is when boon corrupt scourge come as a +1. Anyway such a good build, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hynax.9536 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Any special reason to use Rune of the Pack over the good old Rune of Durability ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartacus.3192 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 hi...why are you using heal power gear? and isnt your crit chance a bit low? I like your video but it would seem your burst would be on the low side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like your video but it would seem your burst would be on the low side?I believe the crusader's pieces are there for the toughness/ferocity/power combination, the healing power is just a bonus. That said you could switch to Cavalier's, but that would give less power and more ferocity than crusader's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the old scrapper build I ran before rework. now it is noticeably weaker, but if u run this, you should still do well.build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlRwsYOMPWKe8SatLA-zVZYWBBHGFEZJih2yoMyMBqoAU7iEGbg3iqLbA-w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
