Base Engi Test 2 | WvW

Описание: Previous combo video is unrealistic in that you'd be hard pressed to be standing on top of the enemy group to do your bomb kit rotation. More likely you can get a few mortar autos in to poke the enemy group and cheese yourself into combat. This will allow you to build the bloodstone and kinetic battery stacks before getting into the main melee clash. The other main issue with Armistice Bastion golem tests on engi is that one of your main damage modifiers is vulnerability based, which is extremely unreliable against comped groups when coming up with bench numbers. There are also some fluctuations with the heavy metal and modified ammunition damage modifiers, though they will usually contribute decent amount of extra damage in a coordinated spike.

The reason for the awkward mortar 5 in the spike combo is only to create a combo field for spear 5 + orbital strike to land in; in real fights you wouldn’t need to place a field there as your team would probably have that covered. You could squeeze out some extra damage by using the poison mortar there, or doing an extra dodge roll between the orbital activation and the electric artillery to proc an extra explosive entrance.
