One of the nice aspect of the new grenade turret is that it is very effective for prekiting. If you use gun turret and wait until the enemy breaks around 100 ft, you can then start to kite, and swap to grenade turret, which will allow you to use concussive grenade while still moving, and to toss a few firebombs. This seems like a small thing, but it is a massive change to where we were before, and it has changed the whole dynamic of the class.

Well read the above Posts.
1. Sniper Duo. Search for Sniper build, or Single target build with Keg. And put lots of Balistic on these two lads.
You actually dont need the snipe ability. Gunshot with Hollow points, Hipshot and Rapid Fire does it also quite good in a rotation.
2. AoE Tanky Engineer. Put lots of Armor on the Engie.
One is full tinkerer with Magnet. -> See Skroris Build.
One is Napalm plus Keg Tinkerer.
Napalm puts Napalm on you, both use Kegs, and napalm also uses his acid grenades to drop lots of corp resitances.
Both use Flame Turret though.

This is something I would test again with you lesti any day , tinkerer aoe party !
Playing def tinkerer could be frustrating especially if you play only duo , as a def tinkerer you'll find your utility with a good party . (I mean for suppport template)
Sometimes I want to try def tinkerer/napalm to see how it goes , but I love so much interrupt / bother destro healers
The minimum to take for tinkerer/napalm is : napalm in grenadier tree , and lightning rod , keg in tinkerer path . I have to test it more to see which tactic of take but I think I'd start with armor tactic , master full aim , +15% crit tactic and for the last tactic AP regen or +15% dmg close-combat
For full tinkerer I took lightning rod , keg , magnet and AP regen tactic in tinkerer path and disarm in rifleman tree .

We had made yesterday a Tinkerer AoE
Warband. Video will be up SoonTM.
Let's say Destro "melted" for excitement.
Had also two Snipers in the back for Healer Harassment.
But in general and the mobile nature of SCs and RvR the Tinkerer combo needs to be in perfect unison in hold and advance.
Voicechat or macros are a must. It helps if you train it every Thursday 8pm Altdorftime.

In this pull and melt build the Grenadier also goes with the flame turret.
The increased radius on Acid and frag is good to cover quite some area.
Sadly "extra powder" is still bugged. Helping only Acid Bomb.
But the Grenadiers Acid bomb is better than the tinkerer in its debuff. Meaning more mastery bigger debuff.
