Pilot engi tools and ammos?
Squidslinger Gilder:
Depends on your build and what you are facing.
I've switched to spanner exclusively as more often than not I'll be more useful as a rebuilder than a repair or buffer. Munker combat you learn that quickly as your balloon is popped more often than not.
I've also insisted all gunners go to spanner too. Similar mindset. Bow mine cannot ever be down for long and wrench takes too long to rebuild so front gunner and engineer get it up. Then if armor is down, gunner helps rebuild it faster. On other boats it is similar. Engineers then just come by and tap it once after rebuild which takes a lot less time than the gunner sitting there whacking at something with wrench.
Ammo again, varies. Often times I use incendiary for close range mines as cases where I'll need to man a gun are usually in "oh shit" moments. Munkers again, see most pilot gunner time as to build a shield wall up with a damaged vessel requires the pilot and gunner to be mining while the engineers tend to the ship. Turned around a lot of bad situations by just hopping off the helm and tossing out a few.

Personally I'm spanner4life unless it's a spire, then it's pipe wrench. I am considering taking mallet on a junker for hydro+free repairs sometime though.
And I've recently gotten into the habit of taking the "Lucky lochnagar" for ships I dont anticipate to gun in.

As a captain I always take my fire extinguisher just incase my helm catches on fire. Generally for ammo, I take whichever ammo fits my mood. I take charged rounds if I'm feeling charged, or want to charge in a pyramidion. I'll take greased rounds if I'm in a squid and feel slippery. I'll take burst rounds if I plan on exploding.

Would be funny if the helm did catch fire, and 20 stacks would kick the pilot off. No damage to the ship, just the fire lock.
