 I lucked out and got the class I wanted first try in the new packs. I ran with it a bit on Silver, and was dying quite a bit because of Huntermode, so I'm just curious what are people's impressions on what to upgrade. 

I had Max turret with Shield+Damage/Shields/Shield Refresh Rate, Max Hunter Mode with ROF/Power Regen Speed/Damage, either 4 or 5 for Geth Network speced for weight reduction, and 4 for health+shields.

I loved the turret, regenerating shields and aggroing enemies is a huge win, so I believe it will likely always need to be rank 6 for successful Geth Engineers. I maxxed Overload for CC out of habit, but I'm thinking maybe only have this at rank 4 for damage? Hunter Mode is cool, but man the 50% shield reduction is brutal. Boosting power regen is good if you want to carry heavy weapons though. I haven't gotten a chance to use my javelin and extended range vision to see how well it performs there, but I figure I should leave that to a dedicated Infiltrator Geth, and focus more on powers with the Engineer. 

I've gotten away with having less shields with other classes, but rank 6 health + shields seems mandatory to fully benefit from hunter mode, which means i'll have to sacrifice something else, and it really can't be the turret, and geth network offers weak damage passives, so I feel I need to put more into that, leading me to think Overload is the weakest link here, and leave the uber cc overload to other classes.

Do you guys have some ideas for more successful Geth Engineer builds?

bump, anybody?

[ian1666]

my build is a 6/6/0/6/6 and i kick ass

Turret is built up for pure shield regen
Hunter Mode acc/ RoF/ DMG
Networked AI built for pure wpn dmg(especially since it ups the dmg on geth wpns)
Advanced Hardware built for shield so i dont die in 1 second

with my geth assault i have dmg/scope
geth shotgun dmg/penetration

basically i use the geth assault almost 24/7 and against elites i use geth shotgun for massive dmg.

Personally I think Hunter Mode and Overload are amazing. Overload simply because of the number of Gold runs people do with the Geth, and the ability to basically destroy shields in a single blow.. I didn't touch the AI Network, and maxed everything else.

I use Falcon and Geth Plasma SMG, with a 90% weight reduction on the SMG.

Now I don't know how incredibly useful the Geth Turret is, I haven't maxed it yet.

Honestly Geth are my new favorite class haha, I absolutely love hunter mode. Stealth is no longer a problem, you can see them even before they get around the corner, your attack speed, movement speed, recharge speed, and I believe damage as well goes up when you use it.

Geth aren't a class you want to rush straight into the fray guns blazing.

Take advantage of their ability to see enemies before they see you, speed, and kiting to you'll do fine. Equip a sniper if you wish, but personally the AoE of Falcon is a million times bettere, sure you won't be leading on the score board...but who cares? It's not like your score really tells how good you've done.

I've kept entire teams alive simple because the Falcon staggers all but the large enemies and staggers them in groups. ^^


Basically I'm built exactly like the guy above me, but no AI Network. Overload will end up being a multi target skill to keep with the AoE of Falcon.

Geth Engie is basically a team medic.

[RvB SPARTAN038]

Mine is 6/6/0/6/6. Overload is useless, but I have everything to shield, shield regen and damage.

I use geth plasma shotty and geth pulse rifle

[Barneyk]

I havent been playing much, but I will build my geth engie as a support sniper.

Shield regen turret to keep everyones sheilds regenerating fast.
Overload AoE maxed for tech burst combos.
Huntermode with damage and then equip a sniper rifle, I am trying out the viper right now since I dont wanna be a 1 shot kind of sniper, if I wanna play like that I go infiltrator.
I wanna be support, take out the trash, finish of the last sliver of sheilds or health so that the strong snipers can focus on doing big damage to the big baddies.
I was thinking that the black widow of N7 whatsthename would be very good but I dont have either.

But also, the javelin is a geth weapon and gets the geth weapon damage so I might go with that, specced for extra penetration.

Why do people always say "that is useless" instead of "I dont like it".
Overload is great, fantastic crowd control and tech burst combos can wreck havoc since the cooldown is so low.

I have had a lot of success using overload on different characters on bronze, silver and gold.

Overload is useless ? Are you playing on Bronze or something ? Instant shield/barrier strip on gold against Cerberus/Banshees is awesome, without mentionning the Tech Burst potential. If you wanna play full weapon, roll an Infiltrator, not an engineer.

Ditto, it's because people like the straight damage. Not sure why so much though haha.

Overload itself doesn't do really all that much damage, unless you're fighting the Geth. But man, does it destory shields and Barriers, which that in itself is amazing. But yeah, Tech burst combos are killer haha.

[Wesus]

Max all bar AH, since nearly all damage can be avoided you shouldn't bother lvl'ing it. Thing is overload is damn good 4 The gold geth farming

In the case of Geth Engineer, it pretty much is. If we want to take out shields, i just launch my turret ahead of me while I use my ground pound heavy melee

[Bogezzus]

Ah, Staggering entire groups of Geth Hunters/Pyros, over and over and over and over, easily killing them before they get to your team, Overloading Shields of the entire group...Falcon and Overload. I love you haha.

[Wesus]

U could also drop the networked AI perk if u got enuff damage and u prefer to have à safe shield at your side

You do this in Gold? I'd like to see that....

same here.  Geth are paper on gold if you try to go melee

[Gwinever]

went 6/6/6/5/3

specced turret for shield regen
huntermode for dmg (seeing through walls is awesome and people soon start following you:P)
overload for 1 jump and 100% vs shields

[Geist.H]

Indeed, overload is key because it allows you to strip the defense of lethal enemies, such as Phantoms, Centurions/Marauders/Banshees as well as giving you a bit of momentum against those who can be stunned.

You are not going to melee on gold where basic troopers kills you in two bursts with full fitness, geth being the squishiest characters of the game.

I specced mine more for support and been having some smooth runs going 6/0/6/6/6.

For turret I maxed every shield regen talent to play a combat medic roll. Overload with first rank of chain, then nueral shock (great for reapers), and then shield damage for stripping/stunning/ controlling.
No hunter mode... leave that for geth infiltrator when I get one.

May not top every chart, but you will be a huge asset to your team helping everyone win (which is the point right)

Oh yeah and I use the GPS with smart choke and thermal clip upgrade

[Geist.H]

Hunter mode gives you 20% CDR and 15% power as well as map awareness if you have a micro, I wouldn't ignore it, but again, it depends of what difficulty you are playing on and how coordinated your team is.

Geth Engineer has Nueral Shock? Does any character have Nueral Shock? I loved it in ME2 haha

[Adhal]

Overload and turret have fast cds, Don't really see the need for it, and it kills your shields which are the only thing keeping you alive (pretty sure one husk will kill you if shields fall)

Nueral shock is an upgrade for overload now kind of like how they fused ai hacking with sabotage
