The Engineer is one of the four Dwarves in the game.
As the Engineer, you carry two essential items for surviving the caves - the Platform Gun shoots climbable platforms onto any surface, and your automated Sentry Turrets lay down blistering hails of support fire - if you manage to get it set up before you're killed. You may not be the sturdiest of Dwarves, but your Combat Shotgun and devastating Grenade Launcher still makes you a formidable opponent.
The Engineer can choose from three different grenades to use: The L.U.R.E., which creates a holographic Dwarf decoy that distracts enemies from himself and his allies, the Plasma Burster, which creates four explosions per grenade, and the Proximity Mine, that only explodes when a medium or larger size enemy enters its trigger zone.
Unlockable weapons include:
- "Stubby" Voltaic SMG: a submachine gun that has a chance to electrocute the target.
- Breach Cutter: a cannon firing a plasma wave that penetrates enemies and terrain.
- LOK-1 Smart Rifle: a rifle that comes equipped with homing capabilities.
Equipment[]
Each class has nine pieces of Equipment, each of which can be individually upgraded using 
Credits and crafting resources. There are three unlockable weapons per class, two primaries and a secondary weapon. Each weapon has its own assignment you are required to complete to unlock the weapon. Once an assignment for a weapon has been completed it then can be purchased within the upgrade terminal.
