Lord of the Tech Bursts (Human Engineer)

It's another slow day, which means it is an opportune time to display my love for humanity once again. I was going to do a "classic" sniper infiltrator, but because everyone doesn't have the Valiant nor the Black Widow, I'll hold that off for a week or so while I think of some acceptable replacements (so far the Krysae and the Harpoon Gun are on the list).

Meanwhile, Engineers are more power based and all it needs is just lightweight weaponry. So I give you this while Curtis* the Imaginary Critic pokes some holes in my build that I realize.

So you finally gave me a name and I respect that., but you're still crazy for even imagining me just for your own personal gain.- That hurts so much I'm not sure if I want to continue now.

Fine, I will avoid personal attacks because that makes me look like an asshole. So why do you have a drone that is as flimsy as cardboard?- That's because Sally the Suicide Drone wasn't meant to live like that. Combat Drone explosions are capable of detonating Tech Bursts set up from Overload, which means Tech Bursts ahoy. In addition, the Shock and Chain Lightning evolutions are for it to do additional crowd control during her brief existence. The short recharge time helps speed up the process.

I've noticed that you specced your character for crowd control.- That is true. On Gold and Platnum, there's a lot of shit on the screen. Plus I'm better at crowd control than nailing a specific target. Fortunately, I have provided an alternate spec in case you wanted to do high damage on specific targets.

Normally you are a proponent of Fitness but this character has no points into it.- The Engineer has so many good powers that I put points into all of them, and I do a 6/0 in passives because I want to carry something besides a Carnifex and deal good damage. 5/3 is a perfectly acceptable trade-off if you are fine with carrying one weapon.

I think we can end this peacefully, as I am now used to your throbbing erection for humanity.- Thank you. Recall that the Combat Drone also serves as a good decoy in times of need, and is a good counter to Guardians and their Nokia-strong shields.

So, go out and try it if you want. Put suggestions and what-not in the comments, and have fun. Don't be an ass like Curtis.

I fucking heard that. I'm coming back for more personal attacks next time.- NEXT TIME CURTIS, NEXT TIME.

*I apologize to anyone named Curtis and I know that this imaginary Curtis is not representative of people named Curtis in the real world.
