Let's see if we can get some discussion going.

Recently, at least, my main has been Scout. I run M1000 with Electrocuting Focus Shots - the way I've built it provides a nice breakpoint for acid spitters. After playing Scout for a while I find it a little hard to go back to a slower class - more than once I've tried to grapple away and realize "wait you idiot you're playing Engineer".

After Scout, I like playing Gunner the most, followed by Engineer. I don't really like playing Driller much - despite having many promotions on my other classes, I haven't promoted Driller yet! I don't hate the class, or anything, I just didn't ever really click with the playstyle. I have a healthy respect of Drillers on my team for being able to handle crowd control well, so cheers to you guys.

I prefer driller, but rotate regularly to fill (and promote). I feel like it's the most versatile class in the game.

  • Bugs? All 3 weapons do AoE very well and bring extra utility (robots on fire, enemies frozen, bugs slowed, etc.)
  • Stuff on the wall? EPC + Thin Containment Field
  • Gotta get somewhere? Drills
  • Teammates? C4

That said, they're all fun in their own way.

"Teammates? C4" hits very close to home
