GW2. Raid Build. Condition Mechanist DPS Build. Condition Alacrity Mechanist. Engineer PvE.
Last Update: April 2024
Role: DPS
The Condition Mechanist DPS is an engineer build with high uptime on the target despite mechanics due to much of its damage coming from the Jade Mech. This makes it great for bosses that require you to do mechanics which prevent you from dealing damage as the Mech can stay as you go off to do the mechanic. It is also great for fights against bosses with high attack speeds due to its high application of confusion. There is a full DPS playstyle as well as the option to provide Alacrity and Might to the squad if built to do so.
NOTE: you can enable the Mech’s abilities to be cast automatically by Ctrl + Right Clicking them.
Skill Priority:
- Overclock Signet only if your mech will not be in danger

- Pistol 4
- Grenade 2/4/5
- Pistol 2/3
- Auto attack on Pistol or use Grenade 1 (to apply vulnerability for Aristocracy Relic)
