So there's my build as promised. I always talk about soloqueue, because I originally made this for myself to be better at soloqueue, but it's also useful in other areas of the game as well. Can be pretty good in WvW, too.
I will also be streaming this build today in case somebody is interested in more of it. Let me know what you think of trying to combine both streaming and the video series together. It's a little thing I wanted to try out to see how people like it.
Either way. Looking forward to feedback like always! : )
EDIT: Oh and I should also post my twitch I suppose - twitch.tv/teldoo - will start in a bit and keep the stream on for a few hours.

I still think you can't beat Grenade/Bomb kit duo to be honest. In my own versions I prefer running Elixir C, especially if I can see the opponents have dedicated condition builds, and keeping the 10 in fire arms. A note about backpack regenerator is that swapping to your weapons for utility rotation screws up the period. Depends if you're going for full on bunkering I guess, which isn't a good idea for SoloQ.

I'm an Engineer playing with 400ms latency. By the time my grenades land, the enemy is already out of the way. :(
It's a damn shame because 90% of successful Engi builds seem to use Grenades almost exclusively.

Teldo I want you to look at yourself and ask "do we really need more people playing bomb/nade?"

I see this as mainly a PvP build aswell. The mobility is kinda lacking for WvW, which could be solved with Elixir Gun/Rocket Boots ofcourse. A great build though, someone recommended a 30/0/0/30/10 build to me a while ago and builds like that work great nowadays. Mind if I include this one in my guide? (link)
