Slayer >> Engi
24v24, 6v6, 1vX simple as that
(Engi is better for BT RP tho)

You're wrong. To greatly simplify it; the amount of aoe healing and cleanses that get spammed in this game is so ridiculous as to make DoT and debuffs largely irrelevant in a WB setting. Only burst really matters.
If you're curious, here is the cookie cutter WB viable classes for each role:
Tank: KoTBS
Melee DPS: Slayer, White Lion
Ranged DPS: Bright Wizard
Healer: All 3 (WP/RP/AM, AM is slightly lower on the totem pole)
Unfortunately, the best tank (KoTBS), melee dps (Slayer), AND ranged dps (BW) also happen to be the least played of their respective roles, by a large margin. This is why Destruction basically owns all WB fights; their classes all have some level of viability (except SH outside of survivability memes), so they can show up with anything and be okay, which Order can't do.
Don't take this to mean that you shouldn't play Engineer. It can be a fun class; but it's completely overshadowed by BW.
Sm is definitely also part of the WB meta... your dps and healers will always love CD reduction

Simply put Engi is just not as good as it once was. The nerfs that were designed to bring BW's under control way back in live still effect engi's to this day. You have an entire tree (rifle)that is mitigated by armor instead of resists. Another tree(tinker) that has almost no dps in it, and a grenade tree that is great if you like breaking CC's all the time. Keg was never game breaking but was nerfed. The real problem is an engineer has to be stationary to be close to effective due to being tied to their turret and the game punishes stationary targets.
