Engineer (Classic)
Basic Information
Health: 80 / 130
Speed: Medium

The Engineer is a playable class in the game Team Fortress Classic. He possesses low health and medium movement speed. He trades off a large portion of direct combat capabilities for the ability to build and repair buildings.


Basic Strategy

  • Stay on defense.
  • Collect metal.
  • Build and upgrade your Sentry Gun.
  • Build a Dispenser.
  • Repair your teammates' armor.
  • Protect your buildings with EMP Grenades.
  • Your Dispenser will damage enemies upon detonation according to how much is in it. You can use this as an improvised bomb.
  • Your sentry is very susceptible to nail gun fire. Try to kill any medics close to your sentry before their super nail gun rips it to pieces
  • Teleporters are invaluable to your team. Try to make them so they are not easily found or destroyed and can provide your team with another route of movement.
  • Your Nailgun is not as effective as your Shotgun, use it sparingly
  • Your EMP grenade can be the most devestating grenade in the game. It detonates any ammunition carried on the victim. Aim for heavier classes like the Soldier and heavy as an EMP hit is an instakill on these classes. They are also extremely useful in destroying enemy buildings and Demoman pipe traps.
