The Engineer is one of the four playable dwarves of Deep Rock Galactic.

His primary weapon set consists of the "Warthog" Auto 210, the "Stubby" Voltaic SMG and the LOK-1 Smart Rifle while his secondaries consist of the Deepcore 40mm PGL, the Breach Cutter and the Shard Diffractor. He has the Platform Gun, the LMG Gun Platform and the "Owl" Armor Rig as his equipment and the L.U.R.E., the Plasma Burster, the Proximity Mine and the S.S.G as his throwables.


About[]

As the ENGINEER, you carry two essential items for surviving the caves - the PLATFORM GUN shoots climbable platforms into 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 make you a formidable opponent.
— Class Description

The Engineer is a tactical dwarf with a formidable arsenal. His ability to construct automated sentry turrets makes him ideal for setting up defensive perimeters to prevent the team from being completely overwhelmed. His Platform Gun also allows easy access to most unreachable areas of Hoxxes' caves.

The Engineer has four throwables to pick from: 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, the Proximity Mine which only explodes when a medium or larger size enemy enters its trigger zone, and the S.S.G which unleashes a swarm of friendly Shredders to attack enemies.

Equipment[]

All classes have twelve pieces of gear, each of which can be individually upgraded using Credit Credits and crafting resources. There are currently four unlockable weapons per class. Each weapon has its own assignment. Once an assignment for a weapon has been completed it can then be purchased from the upgrade terminal.
