[BadSanta.6527]

hey guys with the expac around the corner , which wepo- elite you most looking forward 

[DanAlcedo.3281]

Hammer Soulbeast could be interesting. 

Soulbeast was always on the brink of awesome when it comes to Wvw zerg gameplay. It simply lacked a good wvw weapon. 

Will try that out when SotO hits. 

 

[BadSanta.6527]

for me i think about 

untame staff  with the new mac /worhorne combo 

condi axe / shild virtuo 

gs - kalla 

[shib.1369]

Gs on herald/renegade.

So tired of swords rofl

[Raarsi.6798]

-laughs maniacally in D/D berserker-

 

[Blood Red Arachnid.2493]

Elementalist.  Sword + Warhorn will unlock a lot of options for all of the specializations.  

[Slayerseventh.9843]

Warrior with a staff.

Always loved polearm play style.

[Buran.3796]

Short bow in Vindicator or Herald? 

[Riot Inducer.8964]

Hammer Soulbeast is my most anticipated setup. It was so fun during the preview weekend I ran out of time to try most other classes.

Other than that the revenant shortbow and greatsword will be fun on the other specs. I don't have too strong of feelings about the other class combos this will open up.

[EdwinLi.1284]

Shortbow Mechanist.

I use to play Power Holosmith but I have been looking for something more focus on condition damage builds since I really enjoy Pistol weapons in games though wish the Pistol goes through some adjustments. 

Shortbow is one of the weapon types I have been waiting for a long time and I do hope it can provide new options for condition builds.

Now they just need to add a new Elite Spec that can provide more options to condition builds since so far Scrapper and Holosmith is more Power damage focus Elite specs while Mechanist is a Elite Spec that allows players to spec into Power, Condition, or Support. 

If they add a Elite Spec in the future that allows Engineer to change and adjust their Main Weapon skills based on what Adept, Master, and Grandmaster traits they choose this may open up some potentially interesting things for Engineer since as a Engineer we should have the talent to modify even our own Weapons in unique ways. 

[Bankrotas.8215]

2handed axe core warrior.

[Tachenon.5270]

During the beta thing I had fun with sword/warhorn on a catalyst. Also, I've always wanted mace on a non-mechanist engineer.

That staff ambush skill is... omg, so beautiful, so gorgeous, so divine. Its visual effect is definitely one of my favourite. Untamed will look more like a healer than Druid. XD

[Shagie.7612]

rev shortbow is the coolest ranged weapon in the game

being able to put it on a spec that isn't complete garbage like renegade? cool but also kinda sad
citadel bombardment is neat, you'll never see it again in pvp after the change

[Guy.9207]

Offhand pistol for Berserker/Spellbreaker

Longbow for Willbender

Offhand sword for Dragonhunter

Greatsword for anything that isn't a Vindicator

Pistol for Reaper

Half of these are probably for roleplay reason rather than gameplay but eh.

 

[Palikka.8249]

My only hope is that pistol mh is good on guardian. Pistol/shield core guardian in wvw here i come!

[Fueki.4753]

If not for Soulbeast's permanent fart cloud while merged, I'd look forward to Hammer Soulbeast. But as it is now, Dagger/Dagger Core Warrior looks like the "most interesting" to me.

I'm definitely not looking forward to encountering Pistol/Torch condition Necromancers.

[Roadkizzle.2157]

I'm looking forward to the Dagger Chronomancer.

Pretty much those 2. ^^

But also GS power Harbinger and Shortbow quick condi Herald.

 

[Chyro.1462]

Looking forward to experimenting with sword or hammer on Tempest, cause its pretty much the only class I play.

Though trying out sword/warhorn on catalyst may be fun too 😄

[Sweetbread.3678]

Hammer Weaver theoretically being able to use Grand Finale 3 times as often might be interesting, I didn't test it during the preview though so who knows.

[phandaria.4891]

Longbow WB/Pistol2x WB

Sword/WH Tempest/Catalyst

[Alcatraznc.3869]

I'm looking forward to see how Shortbow on Engineer will looks like. As far as existing weapon goes, it will be Hammer on Holosmith and Mechanist.

Rifle mesmer looks pretty interesting as well. Considering Mesmer has a peculiar use of weapon (Greatsword and dagger with 1200 range) it might be tons of fun or straight up OP with some spec like Mirage.

Sword+Warhorn on Elementalist seems like a potential strong combo, I havent tested but it definitely looks nice.

I suppose mace on Ranger is something I'm curious about so definitely going to check that

[draxynnic.3719]

Can't wait to toss revenant hammer into the trash where it belongs until it gets fixed. So probably forever.

More positively, I'm looking forward to thief axe. It's an unpopular opinion, because a lot of people want an offhand for thief (and for good reasons), but I think there's a space for a torment-oriented melee condition weapon for condi deadeye and spectre that axe could fill nicely.

[doc.9162]

(mace/shield) for (heal/quick) scrapper. herald shortbow (condi/quick) might be op
