Also, Boris could do with some work to buff him up a bit for sure.
LOL ok it's yours, to be honest though I think I saw "Lissle" somewhere else and I'm sticking with it now because I think it's perfect. 👿
And yes, Boris AND Crawford both need some "tweaking" they weren't all the great to begin with, but they are exceptionally bad after this update.
- ElliotLH3 years agoHero+@Ironhead841 Haha thanks. Whoever coined that did a good job. Just rolls off the tongue.
I don't really use Crawford's turret as I don't like being a sitting duck, but I'm curious to try his perk to see what first. Boris I just never touch for the reasons you mentioned.- 3 years ago
If you pick engineer then you must have a certain hatred for vehicles. I agree that Lis is clearly the best option for expressing that hatred. Not only is the G-84 a very flexible gadget she can also carry an additional anti-vehicle weapon. When balancing the engineers I think you have to compare that additional gadget Lis gets to Boris's and Crawford's specialties.
If my objective is to hunt vehicles then C5 >>>>>>>> Mounted mini gun > Sentry Gun.
I think the design goal should be to buff the Crawford and Boris abilities so that they are on par with C5 in terms of anti-vehicle ability, that should bring some parity.
Other random thoughts on how to balance the engineers:
- Give Boris and Crawford extra gadget ammo. If BF4 gave engineers 7 rockets then these guys should get at least 5.
- Provide a 'skill tree' for the M5 and FXM. We get customization options for vehicles and guns; why not gadgets?
- Crawford's repair tool specialty should also work offensively, but in reverse.
- Boris's turret can one shot tanks and heli's if you shout his voice lines over your squad VOIP channel. SILA YES!! THEY'VE COME TO LEARN THEIR LESSON AND I HAVE PLENTY TO TEACH!!!! (Recommend consuming at least 4 alcoholic beverages before attempting this)

I just don't think the turret, or the mini gun will ever be viable tools for anti-vehicle use.
That is why I suggested adding the mines as their default "gadget" in lieu of the turret and mini gun.
I think that would put their offensive capabilities on par with Lis then.
