bethekey.8314 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Hello everyone, I don’t play much anymore, but after hearing so much about how they massacred my boy Core Engineer in the name of Holosmith, I decided to see what I could do. Going back to my classic Flamethrower + Elixir Gun roots, I put together a solid build and had good success against all classes and skill levels. A long string of “duels” against who I assume to be one of the top NA engineers (currently) prompted me to compile a fun video to show you all.Enjoy!Wood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasss.1208 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Finally! I made it into a montage video! \o/Jokes aside, this build looks fun. Probably going to try to learn it when I get time to play again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shroud.2307 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Lmao, I stand by my comment. And I still play core too :P.Loved that intro. Not sure how I feel about Carrion, but it gives me some ideas for a WvW build. Good stuff, I enjoyed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inserting stupid/silly references is half of the fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirame.8521 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Way to go brother in arms. Similar build to mine and just like you I have been proclaiming this build’s amazingness since a short time after the game launched. For me, Tools is a higher priority than Inventions for more incredible trick plays. Though inventions guarantees more survivability.Here is my edition using Rabidhttps://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Engineer_-_Comeback_King_Engie_Core_SpecHere are some of my vids. Old videos but still good.https://www.twitch.tv/videos/529956405https://www.twitch.tv/videos/530358837https://www.twitch.tv/videos/454185229https://www.twitch.tv/videos/456050847https://www.twitch.tv/videos/456045725https://www.twitch.tv/videos/456057113https://www.twitch.tv/videos/455147390 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrForz.1953 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Good all around.Got a bad feeling about Acid Bomb though. I replaced the grenade kit with the elixir gun ever since the former was placed on an ejectable seat and it works well. Perhaps... too well to some standards.

I've been a fan of Flamethrower + Elixir Gun builds since launch as well. @MrForz.1953 said:Good all around.Got a bad feeling about Acid Bomb though.

Perhaps... too well to some standards.Yeah...nades feel over-nerfed to me now, at least outside of Holo. Maybe it's different in other game modes, but I don't think Acid Bomb will be toned down as one of the few decent power skills Engineer has left.

Huge difference. But seriously, he seems like an ass and please don't actually call me Low Tier Gawd, lol.@Ghos.1326 said:Remember deadly mixture trait? #oldtraitnostalgiaYeah and the original kit swap trait where kits didn't share a cooldown with one another. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
