Title: Engineering meta.
Post by: Replaceable on November 21, 2014, 11:46:36 am

Anyone else feel that spanner/mallet/buff is over used these days.

Every ship has one. Like this is CLEARLY OP.

"Oh look it's an engi with spanner/mallet/buff."
Yeah way to go, for some originality.

Anyone else feel this?

Clearly we need a new meta.

Wrench/Chem/Buff

Main Engineer should always have chem, ext, buff with Loch ammo and Tar pilot tool.

Other two crew should be gunners, clearly this is an OP pug meta as I always see groups like this, forex OP and if you try to convince any other way 'ur well outta line brush I jus wanna av fun brah!' #ragequittterssopredictable.

I want more customisation with my engineer build.  If the opposing team can take triple artemis, I want the flexibility for my engineer to take triple buff hammer.

I know right! And spyglass! I mean come on it's a pilot tool. At least get range finder so it's handy when you're helping guns.

All work and no play makes the engineer a dull boy.

When I engi, I bring a bottle moonshine. A dose of that down the hatch, the engine looks perfectly fine. Well, maybe too fine. It looks like a smoking lady, quite literally. Maybe its just beer google.

What about Spanner/Wrench/Mallet for ultimate toolbox? I got something for everything (but flames).

After much consideration on the matter and inspiration from my post for thins needed aboard an airship, I think I found a new engi-meta!

"What engineer tools should I bring?"

"A left handed hammer, a corkscrew spanner and a bucket of welding sparks!"

The sad thing is, I've legit ran this when I was a novice. I thought I was being the ultimate buffgineer.
