Description
An Engineer is concerned primarily with building, repairing, and upgrading things on the battlefield. He can also upgrade his and his teammate's weapons to do more damage, and plant hidden landmines.
Overview
Engineers are a support class, aimed on aiding the other members of the team as they push the front line forward. They are also very good at defending choke points for defensive Objectives, eg. a HE Charge.
They come equipped with a Repair Tool used to complete Build or Repair Objectives and construct objects such as turrets and machine gun nests. They are also able to deploy Landmine used to create areas of denial for the enemy team. Finally, they have the ability to buff teammates' weapons (by 17.5%), and armor (20% damage recuction), benefits that last until the player(s) in question have died.
Engineers are also the only class capable of defusing high-explosive bombs placed by Soldiers and removing the hacking device placed by Operatives. Their Abilities focus on expanding this mentality by allowing them to construct auto-turrets and further boost their buff and deployment abilities.
