Engineer (RoR2)

The Engineer is a returning character in Risk of Rain 2. He is a somewhat higher-skill character and more reliant on preparation and positioning than others, but can do serious amounts of damage in the right hands.

Item Synergies
Engineer (Risk of Rain 2)
 * The turrets inherit most items the Engineer holds at the moment they are placed. For example, picking up Bustling Fungus causes them to start healing themselves and any nearby turrets or players soon after being placed. This is regarded as one of the most powerful items for the Engineer.
 * It's recommended to specifically grab items that benefit turrets rather than the player, since as mentioned above turrets make up a very large portion of the Engineer's damage output.
 * A Leeching Seed will heal the turret rather than the player when it deals damage.
 * Infusion grants bonus life to the turret that killed the enemy, not the player.
 * Dio's Best Friend revives a turret once, but only if the inherited Friend was unused. After the player is revived, the turrets inherit an used Friend.
