The Engineer is a playable character in Risk of Rain 2.

With an assortment of deployable gadgets, the Engineer's strength comes not from him alone, but rather his ability to set up a variety of defensive measures.

The Engineer's signature ability is his deployable turrets, which gain the same Items that Engineer himself has. This makes him unique, as item selection doesn't necessarily come down to what benefits himself, but also what can benefit his turrets.

Skills

Primary

Bouncing Grenades
	Type	Primary
	Proc Coefficient	1.0 per grenade, up to 1.0 x 8
	Description	Charge up to 8 grenades that deal 100% damage each.
Notes
Can sprint while charging (start charging and then sprint, needs to be repeated for every attack).

Secondary

Pressure Mines
	Type	Secondary
	Cooldown	8s
	Proc Coefficient	1.0
	Description	Place a two-stage mine that deals 300% damage, or 900% damage if fully armed. Can place up to 4.
Notes
Mines take a few seconds to 'arm' to their full 900% damage potential. This is indicated by a large green circle and a shaft of light from the mine's center. Mines do not stick to allies or enemies, but do stick to Bubble Shield. The explosion has no damage falloff. Mines' detection radius is 7.5m when fully armed.

Spider Mines
	Type	Secondary
	Cooldown	8s
	Proc Coefficient	1.0
	Description	Place a robot mine that deals 600% damage when an enemy walks nearby. Can place up to 4.
Notes
Unlocked via the Engineer: 100% Calculated Challenge. (As Engineer, defeat the teleporter boss in less than 5 seconds after it spawns.) Do not need to arm, making them a more immediate offensive option. Deals an immediate 600% damage if thrown directly onto enemies, double that of the Pressure Mines when not fully armed. Actively seek out enemies that enter their radius, rather than enemies needing to come close.

Utility

Bubble Shield
	Type	Utility
	Cooldown	25s
	Description	Place an impenetrable shield that blocks all incoming damage.
Notes
Agile [ Agile ] The skill can be used while sprinting. . Lasts for 15s, covering an estimated 9.75m radius. Only one can be active at a time. Flashes before disappearing. Enemies can move inside the barrier, negating its effects. Anything can fire outwards from the shield, and nothing can fire through it inwards, not even players or their allies.

Thermal Harpoons
	Type	Utility
	Cooldown	2.5s
	Proc Coefficient	1.0 per Harpoon
	Description	Enter target painting mode to launch heat-seeking harpoons that deal 500% damage each. Can store up to 4.
Notes
Unlocked via the Engineer: Zero Sum Challenge. (As Engineer, finish charging the teleporter with zero monsters remaining on the stage.) Pressing the utility key enters painting mode. Hold down the primary key and move the cursor over enemies to paint targets. Up to 4 harpoons can be painted onto 1-4 targets. Each harpoon takes 0.3 seconds to lock onto an enemy. Harpoons do not recharge while in painting mode. Harpoons cannot be fired without a target. Fired harpoons that no longer have a target will redirect to the nearest target. (It is possible to build up a swarm of harpoons by constantly firing at a single target when no other targets are within range.) Painting mode can be cancelled by pressing the secondary key. Even if there were targets acquired, no charges will deplete and no harpoons will fire.

Special

TR12 Gauss Auto-Turret
	Type	Special
	Cooldown	30s
	Proc Coefficient	1.0
	Description	Place a turret that inherits all your items. Fires a cannon for 100% damage. Can place up to 2.
Notes
Description clarification: Fires a cannon approximately 3 times per second for 70% of the turret's damage per shot for a total of 210% damage per second. The shots suffer from default projectile falloff. Up to 3 turrets can be placed if the Engineer has a Survivors of the Void - DLC Content Lysate Cell is part of the Survivors of the Void DLC. It is only available if the DLC is enabled when starting a run. Click for more info. Lysate CellSurvivors of the Void - DLC Content This content is part of the Survivors of the Void DLC.

Add +1 (+1 per stack) charge of your Special skill. Reduces Special skill cooldown by 33%. Corrupts all Fuel Cells.. Additional stacks of the Lysate Cell do not grant additional turrets.

TR58 Carbonizer Turret
	Type	Special
	Cooldown	30s
	Proc Coefficient	0.6
	Description	Place a mobile turret that inherits all your items. Fires a laser for 200% damage per second that slows enemies. Can place up to 2.
Notes
Unlocked via the Engineer: Better With Friends Challenge. (As Engineer, recruit 12 minions at one time.) Description clarification: Fires a laser that ticks approximately 5 times per second for 40% of the turret's damage per shot for a total of 200% damage per second. These turrets follow Engineer and stick close by him. The laser has no damage falloff and inflicts 50% Slow50% Slow (Debuff) Reduces movement speed by 50%.. The laser has a maximum range that it abruptly stops at, which is slightly longer than the maximum range at which a turret can acquire a target to fire upon. The maximum target range for the TR58 Carbonizer Turrets appear to be noticeably shorter than the TR12 Gauss Auto-Turrets. Up to 3 turrets can be placed if the Engineer has a Survivors of the Void - DLC Content Lysate Cell is part of the Survivors of the Void DLC. It is only available if the DLC is enabled when starting a run. Click for more info. Lysate CellSurvivors of the Void - DLC Content This content is part of the Survivors of the Void DLC.

  • Acquiring Hooks of HeresyHooks of Heresy
    Replace your Secondary Skill with 'Slicing Maelstrom'.
    Replace your Secondary Skill with Slicing Maelstrom.
    
    Charge up a projectile that deals 875% damage per second to nearby enemies, exploding after 3 seconds to deal 700% damage and root enemies for 3 (+3 per stack) seconds. Recharges after 5 (+5 per stack) seconds. and Strides of HeresyStrides of Heresy

  • Likewise, most equipment items will do nothing unless they have a passive effect, even if the turrets also possess Gesture of the DrownedGesture of the Drowned
    Dramatically reduce Equipment cooldown... BUT it automatically activates.
    Reduce Equipment cooldown by 50% (+15% per stack). Forces your Equipment to activate whenever it is off cooldown.
    • Engineer's turrets will become Elite if the Engineer has any Elite equipment, as turrets inherit the Engineer's equipment, and the Elite equipment activates passively.
• The TR12 Gauss Auto-Turrets and TR58 Carbonizer Turrets have almost identical damage output and proc rate, making on-hit items like the Tri-Tip DaggerTri-Tip Dagger
  Gain +10% chance to bleed enemies on hit.
  10% (+10% per stack) chance to bleed an enemy for 240% base damage. universally good for both.
• The turret's attacks do not have an implicit maximum range, rather the turrets have a maximum range where they will notice and fire upon a target, with the TR58 Carboniser Turrets featuring a much shorter maximum range than the TR12 Gauss Auto-Turrets. This remains true even when their primary attack is replaced by Hungering GazeHungering Gaze (Primary)Fire a flurry of tracking shards that detonate after a delay, dealing 120% base damage. Hold up to 12 charges (+12 per stack) that reload after 2 seconds (+2 per stack).
  Survivor: Heretic.
• Acquiring a PurityPurity
  Reduce your skill cooldowns by 2 seconds. You are unlucky.
  All skill cooldowns are reduced by 2 (+1 per stack) seconds. All random effects are rolled +1 (+1 per stack) times for an unfavorable outcome. will reduce the cooldown of Thermal Harpoons (and Hungering Gaze) to 0.5s. When using both Purity and Visions of Heresy, the turrets' raw damage output is dramatically increased to 4 times their normal amount. However, this sacrifices random chance effects like on-hit items in favor of pure damage.
• Both Pressure Mines and Spider Mines can be stuck onto the outside surface of the Bubble Shield. CrowbarsCrowbar
  Deal bonus damage to enemies above 90% health.
  Deal +75% (+75% per stack) damage to enemies above 90% health. are highly useful for both mines.
• Placing Spider Mines on elevated positions may allow them to jump onto airborne enemies. They can also be placed onto allies and other Survivors, unlike the immobile Pressure Mines.
• Stacking BandolierBandolier
  Chance on kill to drop an ammo pack that resets all skill cooldowns.
  18% (+10% per stack) chance on kill to drop an ammo pack that resets all skill cooldowns. can lead to constant uptime of Bubble Shield, allowing for good cover from Wisps and Titans as the game progresses. It also proves useful to refresh the Turrets' cooldown, giving the player backups in case one of them gets destroyed.
  • Be wary that TR58 Carbonizer Turrets can pick up ammo packs by walking past them. This may not be an issue if they have Visions of Heresy.
• A single Hardlight AfterburnerHardlight Afterburner
  Add 2 extra charges of your Utility skill. Reduce Utility skill cooldown.
  Add +2 (+2 per stack) charges of your Utility skill. Reduces Utility skill cooldown by 33%. allows for nearly 100% uptime of Bubble Shield.

  Gentle ProtectorHP: 2100 (+630 per level)
  Damage: 6.5 (+1.3 per level)
  Class: Ranged
  Speed: 6 m/s
  Armor: 15 Genesis Supernova.
• Moving the targeting reticle of Thermal Harpoons off of a target resets the lock-on delay, allowing the player to immediately target them again. This means that by swiping the reticle back and forth over a single or multiple targets, the player can lock on much faster.
• Stacking several Bustling FungusBustling Fungus
  Heal all nearby allies after standing still for 1 second.
  After standing still for 1 second, create a zone that heals for 4.5% (+2.25% per stack) of your health every second to all allies within 3m (+1.5m per stack). and placing TR12 Gauss Auto-Turrets beside one another is an effective method for dealing with bosses and high-damage enemies, as it provides a small zone of healing readily defended with the addition of a deployed Bubble Shield. Be wary that melee-oriented monsters may still knock Engineer out of the healing radius or the shielded area.
  • It is not recommended to pick up TranscendenceTranscendence
    Convert all your health into shield. Increase maximum health.
    Convert all but 1 health into regenerating shields. Gain 50% (+25% per stack) maximum health. if using the Bustling Fungus strategy, as Bustling Fungus heals based on a percentage of max HP (which will become 1). If the player wants to use the Transcendence/ AegisAegis

    Heal all nearby allies after standing still for 1 second.
    After standing still for 1 second, create a zone that heals for 4.5% (+2.25% per stack) of your health every second to all allies within 3m (+1.5m per stack). as possible will allow the stationary TR12 Gauss Auto-Turret to unleash a constant barrage of attacks, as the player and both their turrets will all heal each other (causing N'Kuhana's Opinion to continuously activate).

• TR12 Gauss Auto-Turrets can block each other's shots if they're placed too close to each other, so some care must be taken to space them out just enough to still benefit from items such as Bustling Fungus.

  Killing an enemy spawns a healing orb that heals for 8 plus an additional 2% (+2% per stack) of maximum health.) will turn them into fairly self-sufficient powerhouses.

  'Critical Strikes' heal you.

• Due to the behavior of TR58 Carbonizer Turrets, Focus CrystalsFocus Crystal

• TR12 Gauss Auto-Turrets can be used to press the pressure plates on Abandoned Aqueduct.
  • Though TR58 Carbonizer Turrets can activate them as well, these turrets are liable to walk off the pressure plates.
• A very risky but rewarding strategy is to acquire the Fuel ArrayFuel Array
  Looks like it could power something. EXTREMELY unstable... at the start of a run. Each turret will get its own Fuel Array and explode when sufficiently damaged, dealing huge damage to whatever was attacking it. This requires the player to dodge well enough to avoid exploding themself, however. This strategy is much more viable in multiplayer, as dying from the Fuel Array will not end the run.

Lore

“The future is now! Cybernetic enhancements – buy them cheap and become the person you’ve always dreamed of being!” 

Cybernetic enhancements were all the rage these days, especially since they were made available for public use. Initially, only military and commercial projects could license the procedures necessary to install cybernetic implants. But those days were long gone, and the concept of “the new human” was taking the galaxy by storm. 

Of course, with any movement, there was backlash.  What of the sanctity of the human body? What about taking pride in your biology? Such arguments were normally laughed off. “Get with the times,” people would say. But one man among many stood out, gaining public attention and starting a counter movement of anti-cybernetics.

The man postulated that mankind was walking on a tight rope – when do the cybernetics end, and where does the human begin? Will mankind end up as a machine species, or will we use our new tech to only better ourselves - without losing sight of what makes us human? The words of this man echoed across the galaxy, leaving a trail of revolution in its wake.
