Tips

As an Engineer...

• …use the build tool to place sentryguns, dispensers, and teleporters.
• …you need metal to build, repair, and upgrade your buildings. Collect fallen weapons to get more metal.
• …you're most effective when you stay moving and use your speed to your advantage.
• …hit your sentrygun with your wrench to upgrade it with metal. Each level adds more health and firepower.
• …build dispensers to provide your teammates with health and ammo. They also generate metal for you to use.
• …build teleporters to help your team reach the front line faster.
• …keep an eye out for enemy Spies attaching sappers to your buildings. Use your wrench to remove sappers.
• …remember to upgrade your buildings. Level 3 teleporters recharge much faster, allowing your team to keep the pressure on.
• …hit either the entrance or the exit of your teleporter with your wrench in order to repair and upgrade both sides.
• …hit MOUSE2 to rotate building blueprints before you hit MOUSE1 to build. Use this in order to orient teleporters away from walls.
• …you can do more than just maintain your buildings. Use your shotgun and your pistol to assist in fights and to defend your buildings.
• …sentryguns aren't restricted to just defensive measures. Deploy them quickly in hidden locations in order to aid in an offensive push.
• …the Coilgun will cause an explosion if you fully charge it for three seconds. Use it to reach previously inaccessible areas.
• …you are able to defuse the Dynamite Pack by hitting it with a wrench.
