Power Tools Holosmith Roaming Build

GW2. WvW Build. Power Tools Holosmith WvW Roaming Build. Engineer WvW. Small Scale WvW Build.

Role: Assassin

The Power Tools Holosmith is an Engineer WvW build that uses the low cooldown of specific Tool Belt skills to constantly trigger the Static Discharge trait, which when combined with other traits that trigger on-hit like Explosive Entrance can make it hard for enemies to react to the quick bursts.

You want to be going in and out of the Photon Forge a lot, so the Vent Exhaust will manage your heat when you dodge. Using dodges even when you have nothing to dodge can be useful because it will cause your next attack to trigger an Explosive Entrance for even more damage, but be careful not to waste all of them. The strongest damaging skills in Photon Forge are the 3 and 4 but use the 2 constantly to leap and remove movement-inhibiting conditions and gain super speed. When you gain quickness from the Kinetic Battery or Elixir U, you can use the Forge auto attack chain very fast.

Make sure to use the Particle Accelerator Tool Belt skill when using your burst combos to enable the damage modifier from Vigor which you gain on using tool belt skills.

Basic Combo: Forge > 2 > 3 > 4 > 111 > Dodge > 2 > 3 > Leave Forge > Shield 4 (Knock Back) > Particle Accelerator > Sword 3 > 2

In between your bursts, you can kite with Superspeed from Holo Forge 2 or manage your heat by using Mortar abilities while the heat cools off.

Heal Combo: Mortar 5 > Coolant Blast > Forge 5 > 2 (or Shield 4 > Sword 3)
