with the new engie update, this will never be a problem NO more :D
the sandvich however, has been nerfed to death :(

ya great lactating wet nurse! MOVE DA GEAR UP LAD

They need to have in the Engee update stuff that would make the Gear more Mobile for attacking since we Engee's are pretty much all Def and without any kind of moblity

lol nice :)

hate it when this happens to me

It's possible to play combat sniper, but difficult. SMG and kukri are your friend :D

Sniper? Mobile? At least an engineer is packing a shotgun for confrontation, snipers get killed by anything that's not right in front of them.

Main reason i never played engie.
Ever.
Sniper seemed far more mobile and useful to me.
