So what do you guys think? Would you like playing the Engineer?

[Elheru]

The thing I unexpectedly love about the sentries is that they start shooting at things I haven't seen yet. I then turn and start killing the critters that were sneaking up behind me.

[wnose]

tip for newbies: if you're low level, throw the grenade hologram and run a bit. The bugs will gather around the hologram and that's when you fire the grenade launcher. Super effective.

[mefficek]

I love engineers secondaries. They are so unique and fun to use

[pukkoku]

My buddy and I just picked up DRG in the past week and can attest to the synergy between scout and engineer. I love the high mobility of the scout and my buddy enjoys the puzzle aspect of how to build platforms and set up turrets most effectively. Love your content and look forward to more!

[jafsrob]

Engi is versatile with the sheer number of wacky overclocks he has access to

[FaultyStar]

To be very clear about the turrets, if you want the most out of the MKII Gun Platform upgrade, pair it with "WIDEMOUTH REFILL PORT" and "HAWKEYE SYSTEM." If you want even more value, use " EXPANDED AMMO BAGS" *or* "HARDENED ROUNDS".

[dvg]

Small tip(someone prolly already mentioned it) two turrets do more damage than one better.

[iamapotato]

"Tony stark and dr.eggman" is just true. Remember your turrets! They do a lot of the work.

[turtlek]

Small tip for a new engi players the sentry uppgrade does matter the 1 sentry uppgrade gives you more dmg output in single shot but over all less dmg in long run 2 towers deal more overall dmg . To summ it up best choice it to take 1 sentry for missions like Elimination or Industrial Sabotage becose of a small amount of targets .

[Ninjat]

Can't overstate how good "perfect accuracy at any range" is on the Core Diffuser. It'll near-instantly delete ranged enemies from any distance, and the unique recharge means you can swap to & from it as needed and know it'll always be ready to fire.

It's also devastating against Oppressors and Praetorians if you can beam their weakpoints consistently, which isn't hard to do from long range, though you will burn its ammo supply fast.

[ianhall]

Engineer is next on my list to promote. Its good to know its support focused.

I started with scout and went on to gunner. Gunner wasnt fun until I got several upgrades into the weaponry.

Now I love the gunner and I'm excited to see how engineer flows once it has access to its full upgraded toolkit

[Legorunner]

There are 2 options: you either like the engineer or you're lying

[gregs]

Just started with my Engineer after usually being Gunner or Driller.

Very useful vid. Takes a bit more time to master him vs my other 2 characters. He seems a lot more fragile, no mass damage weapon straight out the box like the flame thrower or minigun.

[Wineblood]

I just started playing and engineer is my favourite so far, the balanced toolkit and grenade launcher are quite fun.

[videonmode]

Some personal notes:

PGL isn't good for single large targets like you're showing in the footage unless you're running Hyper Propellent. I believe the armor breaking mod for PGL is still buggy with its damage fall off.

I don't recommend fighting on the morkite refinery or arquarq rig. Bugs can hit you through and underneath the mesh of the platform.

Love the breakdown of the characters, keep it up!

[LZS.]

Engineer is my favourite too.
He can combo with almost everyone!
(+ I played a lot of Engineer in TF2)

[halladall]

Usually I go Scout all the way, but I have gotten into playing Engineer lately. I am a big fan of the SMART rifle

[ColorDragon]

Love the way he says a "big tube that shoots a big bomb."

Thanks for posting these beginner guides! This def should be necessary companion to the main game itself.
