So my latest play through is with an engineer, and at first I didn't get why it existed.  No defenses other than turning people around with drones, no extra weapons, and I'd much rather have any of the above with another class that has Incinerate than play an Engineer for it.  However, although I still have to play an adept, this has probably been my fastest play through by far.  The drone makes specific enemies a non-issue (even if it spawns in front, they aren't shooting you), and usually taking down multiple scions or having to deal with a scion and harby are the hardest parts in the higher difficulties.

Anyone else warm up to an engineer?

Very fun



Still my least favourite so far (have not played sentinel yet)

[Heart Collector]

I liked the class a lot. Suited my cautious playstyle, and picking up the sniper further reinforced it. Also the 25% research reduction cost is sweet, I could have sworn I had more cash on my engineer for upgrades as I planet-scanned less. A wonderful class for Insanity, especially with dominate.

engineers my 2nd fav. i think sentinel is the worst class. once that tech armor is gone and your not in cover your done.

Not if you use the Assalt Armor version,  Then you get a detonation plus to help CC enemies & 50% of your base shields back so you can just keep on rolling out the kills:P

Edit: On topic the Engineers Explosive Drone is awesome mix in some Cyro Blast with up close Tempest & they wipe enemies out pretty fast.

Of course Engineers aren't bad. Drone is one of the most hax abilities in the game.

[Forst1999]

In ME 1 i didn't liked Engineers at all, but now they are fun. They can disable most defenses and the Drone is pure joy. Plays better than the sentinel (aka Engineer without Drone).

Engineer is my second favorite class.

[Lord Coake]

I don't even use my drone



Incinerate, Cryo Blast and Overload, with AP Ammo as a bonus talent. Use the Locust, and took Shotguns on the Collector ship. My Engi is a freaking wrecking machine.

The Engineer has been my favorite class since the first game. Messing with people is always fun.

drone is overpowered if you spam it. drone guarantees you can always de-aggro, and it has such a fast cool-down you can spam it very easy. this makes engi probably the single most OP class in me2, imo.

you can choose not to use the drone too. i use the drone, i just don't spam the drone. i like using incinerate and overload the most.

Harbinger has a weakness for playing fetch with the Combat Drone.

Engie+dominate=good times screwing with people

Engineer+Tali+Legion



Hilarity



3 combat drones running around the field, tis a sight to behold. Even when I'm playing another class I usually take a combat drone capable character as that ability is a life saver.

So true, my way of killing harbingers as a soldier
Tali uses combat drone
I pop AR then fille Harby with Inferno rounds while he chases Chittika around the battlefield, works better with 2 drones out
3+AI hacking on a geth mission=your team usually outnumbers the enemy

As little as I enjoyed the Harbinger platform fight on the Collector ship, I might break out the little chicken-legged engineer in the finale.  Meh, who am I kidding?  I'm bringing Mr. Roboto.

Bring both
I use Tali as a matter of personal preference but where one is good two is better

Engineers absolutely abuse YMIR Mechs with the combat drone haha.

[FFTARoxorz05]

I'd try the 3 engineers thing if I didn't take Miranda every time. Overload, Warp, and the squad damage bonus is just too silly together.

Meh, doesn't help if she's dead on top of a box

[FFTARoxorz05]

She usually doesn't get herself killed, at least more than any other squadmate would (besides Jack since she loves shotgunning from no cover). I swear I'm playing solo on these later collector missions almost every time now.

I know what you mean
I've observed that Tali and legion die less than other squad members and that Miranda and Jacob die more, but I have no evidence to back that up

I take Tali, Legion and Garrus with me for story value (and becuase I play primarily a soldier squadmates don't matter)

Scions too (provided you spawn the drone on them as their shockwave will instakill it at range), they seem to be at a loss whom to target.
"Derp, a Shepard, scratch that, derp, an orange sparkly ball, scratch that, derp, a Shepard" and so on and so forth

[FFTARoxorz05]

Actually mechs have been walking backwards towards me with a drone on them as fast or faster than they would advance without a drone on them. They aren't facing me, but still, I hate getting pushed back by mechs.

Also, I gave up on Energy Drain and started using the geth shield for defense.  Anyone else use a defensive bonus power on an engineer?
