Getting into GW2 need some help with Engineer PvP / PvE
IMO Engineer is the coolest. Idk why in a world of magic engineering speaks to me but it does. I like the Witcher sort of aspect to it, taking potions and relying on weapons, accessories, gadgets etc. It's cool. And obviously SLIME TIME.
However, I need it blunt. How good is this class for PvP / PvE? What does it excel at?
I normally like playing 1v1 duelist / 1vX classes in games with high mobility and outplay when mastered. So in PvP what's my classes strengths and weaknesses? Does it shine in sPvP / WvW / Roaming?
From what I understand in PvE everything is fine. What's the actual likelihood of playing raids / CM content / high fractals as a engi though and how useful will I be? or am I completely outclassed by other specs?
I am getting the feeling that the profession is the jack of all trades, master of none.
It would be nice to know how the profession has stood the test of time historically too?
And for further information if anyone knows any engi pvp mains like Boyce for ranger or something like that I would be grateful. Can't seem to find any and would like to see a pro play it as a main.
