Meet the Engineer

“

Hey look, buddy. I'm an engineer — that means I solve problems. Not problems like 'What is beauty?' because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. — The Engineer on his profession

”

The Engineer is a soft-spoken, amiable Texan with an interest in all things mechanical, who chooses to construct and maintain Buildings that provide support to the team rather than engage in primarily direct combat. The Engineer's various gadgets include the Sentry Gun, an automated turret that fires at any enemy in range, the Dispenser, a device that replenishes the health and ammo of nearby teammates as well as extinguishing them when they are on fire, and Teleporters that quickly transport players from point A to point B.

Since the Engineer's ingenious devices are under constant threat from explosives and devious enemy Spies, a good Engineer must keep his gear under a watchful eye and in repair with his Wrench at all times. When the Engineer needs to get his hands dirty, his trio of generic yet capable weapons, combined with the assistance of his helpful hardware, make him more than capable of holding his own in a fight.

The Engineer is also capable of hauling buildings which he has already constructed and redeploying them in new locations at the cost of a lower speed and the inability to use weapons while carrying them. Buildings are vulnerable during the hauling process, as they will be destroyed if the Engineer is killed.

The Engineer is voiced by Grant Goodeve.

Bio

Name: Dell Conagher Location of origin: Template:W Job: Template:W Motto: "I like to make things" Favourite equation: Emblems:    Description: This amiable, soft-spoken good ol' boy from tiny Bee Cave, Texas loves barbecues, guns, and higher education. Natural curiosity, ten years as a roughneck in the west Texas oilfields, and eleven hard science PhDs have trained him to design, build and repair a variety of deadly contraptions.

Basic strategy

Main articles: Engineer tips, Engineer strategy

• Use the build tool to place Sentry Guns, Dispensers, and Teleporters.
• You need metal to build, repair, and upgrade your Buildings. Collect fallen weapons to get more metal.
• Hit your Sentry Gun 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.
• Pyros are good allies. They can help remove Sappers from Buildings using the Homewrecker or the Maul.
• Press E to call for a Medic if you get hurt. Nearby Medics will be notified of your need.

• A photograph on the Engineer update page displays a young boy (presumably the Engineer) trying on his first pair of goggles, as the Engineer from Team Fortress Classic looks on proudly and pats him on the shoulder.
• The Engineer makes an appearance as a large cutout upon one of the forts in Template:W. The rest of the fort is comprised of recognizable parts of 2Fort. The Engineer's hardhat and goggles are also a selectable hat for the player's worms.
