14:47 Wow, I saw this fight. I was the other elementalist who was resurrecting the guy. You beat him up for several moments. For several moments you managed to keep the fight very calm from what I saw.
I play condi Scrapper with spear and flamethrower based of your old dodge holo condi and it feels great , lots of barrier , stabilty and can spam might from autoattack , when dmg ramps up it just destruction plus i can constantly dodge and cleanse conditions. Playing it in PVE but probably will tasted it in pvp too. Spear is just fun weapon both skill and animations feels really good. Thanks for this holo combination gonna play around it too.
It is full celestial gear with energy and bursting sigils on spear. Firearms 2,2,3 Tools 3,1,1 Scrapper 1,1,3 . Utillity Med Gyro, Blast Gyro, Flamethrower Kit , Elixir U and optional i use Sneak gyro. Relic of Chronomancer to trigger heals from swiftness and superspeed, i use also very cheap balthazaar runes on gear but can swap for something else but i like boosting my burns. Basicly you pump might and bleeds to have stability , vigor and your swiftness, super speed heals you. Main dmg is burn and you can stuck it very quickly. Use your tool belt to cleans condi and keep your vigor to dodge and dodge often. Swap often to flame thrower to keep swiftness and rump up burns. Maybe little overcomplicated but when you play it a little it is build growing on me. Possibilty to dodge handles lots of incoming dmg with sometimes this build can have problems , if you die to often you can run with bulwark gyro insted blast maybe.
if its too squishy for you, you can take the holo trait that converts condis to boons, or put on the relic of durability, otherwise youd need to go explosives to use nades for a range build but that would make you less tanky as well, other than that just play pistol i guess lol
its mostly because i have vigor and the dodge food already, and those dont stack additively with eachother, so the trait on top is also not getting full value, it may give 25% instead of 50% or even less. I haven't done the math but it might be one dodge per 10 seconds extra, which is just not as good as the quickness imo
Hey go check the video he posted yesterday...he did one with open world builds and he did a version of this for OW that was a celestial holo build...I messed around with it yesterday and it was super fun...
why not? because you had haters telling you that you're inferior if you use it? The build is a condi build but if you run trailblazers you wont get nearly as much value so thats the best alternative, and if you run carrion or viper its just a free kill
@@Vallun No, I usually don't play cele and dislike the effects it has on roaming and duels (don't want to start a discussion, just my opinion). I know you and many other players like it and that's fine. I blame Anet, not the players who use it. Ty for the tip though, love your videos. Maybe I give it a shot, always hated the engineer's reliance on tool and grenade kits
@@KaiLaddeGricht i recomend u trying this build with carrion stats and thief runes but swaping alchemy to explosives. There u have a lot of power dmg in multi hits + strong condi dmg :)
@@Vallun I know, but a power spear on engie sounds so good, especially for scrapper with the spear 4. So much vulnerability as well as pressure damage to pair with the shredder gyro and the mortar kit
@@Vallun true, but the range you have with the spear is really good and the vulnerability stack is rather awesome to have. so, can the spear be used as power?
@@finnleyjack331 i feel like you are looking for approval that you really don;t need. Run spear if you want but it wont be better since it has basically no defense
They really knocked the animations out the park with this class
Core engineer I wish they improved as much as elite specs. Things like turrets feel so outdated, i want kit improvements too
I believe the leap finisher occurs at the end of the dash, only if the enemy is near.

With relic of rivers I feel I can almost entirely rely on holo 4 for damage. Spear not having any defences will never be appealing.
So now it is Engineer turn tyty
No, sword shield or pistol shield still better
@@djchoize295 but is it as fun?
@@bertoandon9681 Holo is fun regardless of the weapon it use, I find shortbow the best one to have fun with.
Part of me wants to buy the xpack and return, but the rest of me knows I wouldn't have fun in current WvW.
The pvp in this game is really.... I don't have the words.
Yooooo jamming some persona tunes!
Hi can I ask you what should I use if I wanted to do condi spear holo build for strikes raids?
Damm this is close to the build I made! Feels good to see that I'm getting closer to your level in build crafting
nice build. Do you think it will be working with cele stats after cele nerf ?
yes
@@Vallun nice Im trying it now, and its awesome
Like because who cares for underwater skills? 😂 I always forget them too

can you show me your build? i like scrapper too :)

Yes another celestial build!
How about range classes and hit'n'run play style builds? It seems to me that full melee dmg is a problem
if its too squishy for you, you can take the holo trait that converts condis to boons, or put on the relic of durability, otherwise youd need to go explosives to use nades for a range build but that would make you less tanky as well, other than that just play pistol i guess lol
With all the dodge synergy, why take a little bit of basically random quicknes/SSs from tools grandmaster instead of extra endurance regen?

I haven't done the math but it might be one dodge per 10 seconds extra, which is just not as good as the quickness imo
I think I answered my item question. I forgot you can have food in WvW, so you just use food to cap endurance regen instead of the tools trait
Nice . Would celestial spear build work in open pve also? Any trait differences

@@fullmetalathlete perfect thanks!
Great build! what are the songs?
I think they are from the Persona series
@@juandeart7533 but which one? like there are many persona games and they have tons of songs in their soundtracks
@@workingandcommenting uffff idk man, maybe 4 or 3. you Can put the video on speaker and use Shazam that can help
any good alternative to the celestial gear? wanna try this, but i'm not a huge fan of celestial in wvw

Thanks for the video, but at the time of writing this, do not bother with Engi spear. It's 2 (charge) ability is bugged and misses all the time.
Is it still bugged?
@@pandaemonaeonaeon it never was
Someone here liked Persona 5 x)
Can the spear be used for power builds?
i dont see why you would when you can just run sword shield instead
@@Vallun I know, but a power spear on engie sounds so good, especially for scrapper with the spear 4. So much vulnerability as well as pressure damage to pair with the shredder gyro and the mortar kit
@@finnleyjack331 well isnt that just a worse hammer then?
@@Vallun true, but the range you have with the spear is really good and the vulnerability stack is rather awesome to have. so, can the spear be used as power?
@@finnleyjack331 i feel like you are looking for approval that you really don;t need. Run spear if you want but it wont be better since it has basically no defense
I think I am in the minority I like kits lol
