Tekoneiric.6817 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I was looking around my old computer for some sound files to use on a Adafruit sound effects board I bought and came across my Unreal Tournament install. It got me to thinking that the GW2 engineer needs UT style proxy mines. For those that have never played UT, proxy mines are happy face mines that would bounce around the battlefield verbally taunting in a cartoon chipmunk voice until they hit someone. It'd be really fun in WvW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palador.2170 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 While they sound amusing, it also sounds like they'd rely more on luck than skill. Some of the recent sigil and rune changes seemed to be made to eliminate the effects of good/bad luck, so I don't think they'd go for this.

It'd be really fun in WvW.Well not many remember those ,and personally been more of a fan of the avp marine mine gun.That one had everything you needed ,from proximity to timed to electric etc.That aside the development team been pretty hardcore on not making any specialist build outside the typical straightforward dps buff heal.They really should go and play ANY specialist hero on heroes of the Storm to understand what new mechanics and fun game play is.And they really really need to take customization up for skills several notches to allow more variety on playstyles.
