Neural Shock or Energy Drain?



Anyone?

I always liked the Engineer. They were good for Neural Shock, AI Hacking and Dampen, not to forget Overload and Sabotage. The pistol was always quite good with Marksman. I'll get my chance to see how the ME 2 Engineer stacks up this afternoon when it arrives, well I hope it does.

Well I'll definitely be able to check all this stuff out this afternoon.

Looks at the pretty little red 2 under my Avatar.

I have only recently finished a playthrough with the engineer class on ME1 mainly out of curiosity and found it to be pretty cool. People tend to avoid the engineer because its less combat focused talents but with the right skills and team mates i found the class to be very effective and will definately be plaing one in ME2. still got  a day to go in the UK till release however.

ME2 Engineer FTW

[Kiju243]

I think I'mma just make the Sentry a bomb, and send it out after things like a Kamikaze...after using Overload on my target, of course!.

Just beat the game and got lvl 30 with my engineer. Maxed out my Overload, ice and fire attack and I chose the Mechanic specialization. Minored a bit in AI hack and drone and I found Shield drain or warp ammo to be very effect as well. Kept the whole squad alive too.



ENGINEERS RULE!!!!

Heck, I like the infiltrator the most, the ME 1 engineer were maybe a little slow in the build, but alot more interesting than the other classes IMO.

[Yakko77]

OK. Struggling a bit but I'm slowly but surely progressing through insanity with my NG+ lvl 30 engineer. I'm thinking I need to retrain my skills when I get that option unlocked again. I got heavy incinerate and overload plus I chose the mechanic specialization. I got 2 lvls into AI hack, drone and cryo but I'm thinking I need to redo that and just max out as much as I can on 2 of those 3. I'm leaning towards ditching the AI hack (I'll bring Tali along when I know that's going to be needed) and using more skills in drone and cryo. Also, my bonus skill right now is AP ammo (something that is always active as all the rest of my skills always need to recharge).



Suggestions for a better engineer insanity build welcome. Thanks.

I wish I could support you but I was born an Infiltrator and I'll die one. still, You guys are pretty awesome.

[goldenbender]

Weightless Companion Spheres = Joy. My first playthrough was as an engineer, and it's still my favorite class.

Infiltrator ? Hackin' mah drone?!

[EffectedByTheMasses]

@ collector ship mission. Best weapon specialty? My build is on veteran, focusing on distraction / crowd control.

[bloodshed17]

Yes ME2 Engineers FTW.

[BellatrixLugosi]

It confuses me that sentinel gets tech armor but engineer doesn't................

[DarthRomance]

I went with sniper rifle for my weapon.

[bloodshed17]

Engineers would be beast if they had both tech armor and a drone.Thats the ultimate tech specialist.

Engineers is the least kick ass name out there. thats probably why it doesnt get played! it should be renamed Wizard.

My main character in ME1 and ME2 was soldier. Then I got fed up with Revenant and adrenaline rush spam and changed my ME1 import to engineer. One of the best choices I've made in the game.

Area overload, heavy incinerate, combat drone, mechanist and collector AR (I love that organic boomstick) with tungsten ammo + 1 point to cryo and I'm equally kickin' ass and having fun. For heavy weapon I pick Arc projector, blackstorm or cain.

Engineer became my favourite character when I understood the greatness of the combat drone.



Also, I'm engineer myself. A construction engineer but who cares. All engineers love tech-stuff.

I care!  my pops is a civil engineer, same as my grandfather, and great grandfather (free masons) but I am not good at math, so the buck stops here.  The engineers in mass effect 2 play smart.  You could essential strip shields with overload, strip armor with incinerate, and strip health with cyro blast (double damage).  there shouldnt be any one enemy an engineer shouldnt be able to handle.

[J HG T]

Also Incinerate is surprisingly good against biotic barriers. Try it out sometime.
My favourite thing with engineer is messing with harbinger or scions (or any badass enemy). Just give them a combat drone to play with and they forget you are in the same room. So much fun!

EDIT: Also, I like to play as engineer because Dead Space (Dead Space 2 coming 2011, Yeah!)  just happens to be one of my favourite Scifi games of recent years. Isaac Clarke was an engineer, so I relate to him in some strange way.

Same here.  Incinerate, heavy overload and combat drones plus the long reach of a sniper rifle..... engineer is one of the deadliest (yet most underrated IMHO) classes in the game.

I  never tried the explodey drone though.  Can anyone rate that and how does it compare to the other drone?

[Tlazolteotl]

You may want to take a look at AverageGatsby's thread. I think it's called engineering the asylum.

I don't agree with his early build order, but his rundown on attack vs explosive drone is right on.
