__TOC__
==Description==
The '''Engineer''' is a hardcore tower that attacks enemies with a rebar launcher and can build various [[Sentry (Unit)|sentries]] within its range to assist with defense. It can be purchased from the store for {{Gem|4,500}} and has a level requirement of {{Level|50}}. The '''Engineer''' is also available through a gamepass for {{Robux|21,250690}}.
 
The '''Engineer''' has three range rings: the white ring is the attack range of the '''Engineer''', the yellow ring is the placement range for sentries, and the red ring is the deadzone range in which the '''Engineer''' cannot fire nor build sentries. The '''Engineer''' collects scrap when damaging enemies, with the amount of scrap obtained per shot being equivalent to the damage dealt to an enemy. The scrap fills up its ''Scrap Meter'', which can be seen above its tower icon in the upgrade box or when the player hovers over it. When its ''Scrap Meter'' is full, the '''Engineer''' will briefly stop attacking to build a sentry. Within upgrades, the '''Engineer''' will build stronger sentries, however, they will require more scrap to be built. If the ''Scrap Meter'' is filled up but the maximum number of sentries are placed, the '''Engineer''' will wait until a sentry is despawned or destroyed before building another sentry. There is a limit to how many sentries can be built.

***The fifth and last sentry was the Support Beacon, which would reveal hidden enemies in its range.
***Due to there being multiple types of sentries, you would be able to pick what kind of sentries the '''Engineer''' would place.
*The '''Engineer''' Level 3 upgrade cost is possibly a reference to ''Cyberpunk 2077's'' name.
*The [[Sniper]], '''Engineer''', [[Frost Blaster]], [[DJ Booth]], [[Ace Pilot]], [[Pursuit]], [[Commander]], and [[Necromancer]] are the only towers that can damage all enemies, no matter their immunities.
*The '''Engineer''' Level 6 upgrade is most likely a reference to [https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Illegal_Gun_Parts Illegal Gun Parts] from ''Terraria''.
*The '''Engineer''' is canonically [[Brawler]]'s sister.
*It has been stated in [[Blind Faith]] and strongly implied in the [[Brawler]]'s trailer that the '''Engineer''' creates most vehicles and machines used by towertowers, such as the [[Turret]], [[Pursuit]] or [[Missile APC]].
