Power Mechanist Open World Build

GW2. Best Open World Build. Power Mechanist Open World. Engineer PvE.


Last Update: April 2024


This Power Mechanist for Open World is a simple engineer build that benefits from the convenience of the long range of the Jade Mech and the rifle to deal damage consistently and with little effort. As a mechanist you lose access to your tool belt skills but have a permanent golem pet to aid you in battle.

The build focuses on gaining might, fury, and quickness which shares to your mech passively due to the Shift Signet. Stay near your mech or it loses its stats. Because your mech’s attacks are ranged, you may need to pay attention to where it chooses to stand, reposition towards it, and attack from range with your rifle on the same target.

High burst with passive modifiers and ranged damage allow you to optimize your time to kill on smaller enemies which make up most of the quests and events in the open world. It’s quite simple to play, but has a fun and fast playstyle that is great in most situations.
