-======= Recommended Builds  =======+======= Supported Skills  ======= 
 + 
 +Although there are some recommended builds, feel free to use the following skills with any combination of stats you like. 
 + 
 +Some skills require specific traits, where specifically noted. 
 + 
 +NOTE: ArenaNet made some changes to Engineers in which weapon sets can be swapped while out of combat. The MMOMinion bot framework does NOT yet support this feature. With that said, Apophis will only work properly if you have ONE weapon set equipped. If you equip both, there will be some unexpected swaps occurring and inefficiency in swapping back and forth from kits. 
 + 
 +  * Hammer (All Skills) 
 +  * Pistol [Primary] Shield [Secondary] (Requires Inventions \ Over Shield Trait) 
 +  * Elite Mortar Kit / Orbital Strike 
 +  * Supply Crate / Med Pack Drop 
 +  * Elixir B / Toss Elixir B (Requires Alchemy / Human Growth Hormone Trait) 
 +  * Elixir U / Toss Elixir U (Requires Alchemy / Human Growth Hormone Trait) 
 +  * Elixir C / Toss Elixir C (Requires Alchemy / Human Growth Hormone Trait) 
 +  * Elixir H / Toss Elixir H (Requires Alchemy / Human Growth Hormone Trait) 
 +  * Elixir R / Toss Elixir R 
 +  * Med Kit / Bandage Self 
 +  * Bomb Kit / Big ol' Bomb 
 +  * Elixir Gun / Healing Mist 
 +  * Flamethrower / Incendiary Ammo 
 +  * Medic Gyro / Reconstruction Field 
 +  * Healing Turret / Detonate Healing Turret / Regenerating Mist 
 +  * Blast Gyro / Bypass Coating 
 +  * Shredder Gyro / Spare Capacitor 
 +  * Purge Gyro / Chemical Field 
 +  * Bulwark Gyro / Defense Field 
 +  * A.E.D. / Static Shock (Requires Tools / Gadgeteer Trait) 
 +  * Throw Mine / Mine Field (Requires Tools / Gadgeteer Trait) 
 +  * Personal Battering Ram / Launch Personal Battering Ram (Requires Tools / Gadgeteer Trait) 
 +  * Grenade Kit / Grenade Barrage (REQUIRED for underwater fighting.) 
 + 
 +Special Note: 
 +  * HoloSmith is NOT supported. (No Sword skills / Heat management) 
 +  * Rifle and Pistol have BASIC support. Apophis will use them if they're the only thing available, but every good Scrapper build uses the Hammer. 
 +  * Apophis uses the Grenade Kit and Bomb Kit for underwater fighting. Please make sure they're available in your underwater skills lineup. 
 +  * If you really want a to use a skill that Apophis doesn't support, you can configure that skill in Skill Manager and run the bot in Assisted Play mode. 
 + 
 +All of this is subject to change as I improve the addon in the future. 
 + 
 +====== Skill Manager Configuration ====== 
 + 
 +Create a blank Skill Manager profile with the desired fight range.  (Up to 2000) 
 + 
 +  - MMO Minion \ GW2 Minion \ Skill Manager 
 +  - "+" Button to Create new Profile 
 +  - Give it a File Name of "Apophis" or a name of your choice. 
 +  - Set the Fight Range to Custom. 
 +  - Set the Distance to 300. 
 +  - Set Swap Weapons to Manual. 
 +  - Save the profile. 
 + 
 +======= PvE/WvW Builds & Advice  =======
  
 The following are the current recommended builds. The following are the current recommended builds.
  
-__Pistol/Shield Builds__ +  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlFwsYVMPWKm+WdtfA-zRRYBhBHF4zoVJQ6KANeRCgNwD-e|Mortar + Elixirs]] (Long range.) 
-  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqelcThqrY5VwdLQ7FLGGFdj/4bu4+FCbQYAMO5HA-jxhYABAs/QvK/YWJo+q/AveAbfAAdeCACAkAMTlpAYmmpZammpZqrTmmpZammpZammpZamCA-e|PvE WvW]] +  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlRwgYOsHWKO0LvtKA-zRIYRUwfGRoAqQCY1LSYsBeA-e|Mortar + Gyros]] (Tanky 100% critical build.) 
-  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqelcThqrY5VwdLQ7FLGGFdj/4bu4+9BbQYAMO5HA-jJhYABiXG43HAAA7PE8JAAA|PvP]]+  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlFwsYVsOWJW+SftfA-zRRYbRBAH+yIiEI9CwkLiAUwB8kNQP9DWEVcD-e|Flamethrower]] (Higher DPS w/100% Stability up-time.) 
 + 
 +Additional WvW Build Options 
 +  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlFwsYVMPWKOMTatbA-zVJYnRB/ZkmEIdFgHvIBwG4tIolG-w|Mortar Elixirs]] (Long range. Tanky w/3000+ Power, Permanent Quickness and Bleeds/Cripples.) 
 +  * [[http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?PehAIJlNw8YPMH2Je2TntaA-zVJYjRVfhkUykaEUdJ47lIA7n3S/bWA-w|MedKit]] (Maximum healing power!) 
 + 
 +**Stat Priority** 
 + 
 +I typically recommend prioritizing the following stats for solo play. 
 + 
 +  * Concentration (Caps at 100% buff duration) 
 +  * Power 
 +  * Precision 
 + 
 +The 100% boon duration increase will allow you to keep up almost all boons all the time while in combat. 
 + 
 +The +Power and +Precision help Scrappers achieve "bruiser tank" status by maintaining very high barriers. 
 + 
 +I highly recommend Diviner's gear until you're able to hit 100% boon duration, then start subbing in Berserker's when you're significantly over the cap. 
 + 
 +======= PvP Builds Advice  ======= 
 + 
 +The following are the current recommended builds. 
 + 
 +  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlRwcYPsOWJW+SqtLA-zZIPjCWAZMBE4A|PvP Flamethrower Juggernaut]] 
 +  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlRwgYPMHWKOsTqtKA-zZoPjCWAZMBMxA|PvP Mortar Fury]] 
 + 
 +Alternate Disable-Focused Builds. 
 + 
 +  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlJw2YisHWJmUX6NVA-z5QXCOOA|PvP Hammer Disable / Alchemy]] 
 +  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAIlJw2YisHWJeMX6NVA-z5QXCOOA|PvP Hammer Disable / Inventions]] 
 + 
 +I highly recommend using the Flamethrower in PvP with the Juggernaut trait to maintain 100% Stability up-time. This will prevent your AFK bot from being knocked around too much, which can lead to unexpected off-mesh issues or weird pathing choices. 
 + 
 +**Best PvP Strategy** 
 +  * Use MadaoPvP. It's smarter than PvPTool and looks less like a bot. 
 +  * Lose your first 10 matches of the season to get into Bronze tier. 
 +  * If you get above Bronze tier, play with stupid/mismatched Runes, Sigils, Traits and Amulets until you're in Bronze. 
 +  * Try to win just under 50% of your matches to stay in Bronze.
  
-__Stat Priority__ +**Why?** 
-  - Concentration (Caps at 100% buff duration) +  * There's no bonus reward for playing higher tiers until Platinum, which is difficult to maintain and will generate tons more reports against you. 
-  - Power +  * Players in Bronze are noobs, and are less likely to realize they're playing with bots. 
-  - Healing Power+  * Players don't tend to care if they win or lose in Bronze tier, so they're less likely to get upset and report bots for being dumb.
  
-====== Alternative Builds ======+**Other Advice** 
 +  * Please encourage others to file stupid reports in PvP as often as possible. Right now it seems all reports are trashed in this game mode due to 99% of them being false, and we want to keep it that way. 
 +  * It appears playing < 2000 games per season will avoid getting automatic Dishonor (soft ban for 9 months from PvP) on the EU servers.
  
-If you're a new player and just used the Level 80 boost, Apophis will support this additional build.+======= World Completion / Map Completion Builds  =======
  
-  * [[http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQFAUncT5miKskYZ5VyrwdL7WQ7lBULvFl4F1EJx4M2F543DOhBAA-jFyFQBXQHgFvAA0Q5XAfAAAQJoWM/ZC1fWy+DAA-w|Free Accounts & Newbies]]+Please note that World/Map Completion is NOT compatible with Engineer kits. This is because the kits interfere with the numerous things you have to pick up to do the quests.
  
-If you want to try something different, the following modifications to the recommended builds are supported.+This is a recommended build for World/Map Completion that uses the default skills and equipment available to you after using a Level 80 booster.
  
-  * Use a Hammer instead of the Pistol Shield. +http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAQlFwsYVMMWJeqSarOA-zRIUS4PBdOA-e
-  * Use Flamethrower instead of the Elixir Gun. +
-  * Use Elixir R instead of the Elixir Gun. +
-  * Use Elixir C instead of the Elixir Gun. +
-  * Use Purge Gyro instead of the Elixir Gun. +
-  * Use Personal Battering Ram instead of the Elixir Gun.+
