BWE3: PvP Arena Top Score - Engineer

Guardian of K T is back with another top score, this time with the Engineer. In this unedited gameplay footage during BWE3 Guardian plays as an Asura for the first time which due to their small stature it makes him difficult to spot while running around the map and harder to target in bigger fights where special effects and other characters are increased. Follow along as he totals 13 kills including some good 1v1 fights, 2 forest creature kills, and 4 caps. This build utilizes the pistol for condition spam and shield for defense. It also brings 3 elixirs giving the Engineer a wide variety of tools which make for some good combos. When traited each elixir also provides might x 2 and condition removal. 18,082 Health, 2,735 Armor, 49% Critical Chance, 1,985 Attack Amulet: Rabid's (+798 Condition Dmg, +569 Precision, +569 Toughness) Gem: Rabid's Runes: Undead x6 (+183 Condition Dmg, +50 Toughness, 5% Toughness becomes Condition Damage.) Sigils: Earth on Pistol (Each sigil gives 60% chance to bleed on crit for 5 secs) Strength on Shield (30% chance to apply might for 10 secs on crit) Build: http://en.gw2codex.com/build/7868/show Be sure to subscribe to stay tuned for more PvP gameplay videos and builds.

I used pretty much this same build. I used Elixir C instead of S tho. Gonna give Elixir S a try next time, as with C as soon as would clear my conditions they would almost instantly get re-applied. Nice video!

Thanks! Yeah I definitely recommend it, I think Elixir S is important to bring for the ability to break stun/evade attacks and the toss is just as good providing team stealth or stability as both help a lot with reviving, stomping, and escaping when the enemy has numbers. Certainly lots of conditions out there so I wouldn't play an elixir build without using the trait to remove conditions and that helps supplement not bringing C along with throwing Elixir U to remove and proactively prevent conditions/damage. There is one point in the video I absolutely destroy a ranger on the capture point by throwing Elixir U and standing behind the wall removing any conditions and reflecting his axe attacks.

I really love this engineer build for its strong versatility although it does lack cc besides the supply crate. Shield 4 was bugged over the last weekend, so if that gets fixed the kb will a be huge gain.
