    replace engineers iron helmet with a diamond one, make its pickaxe iron, with the same enchants as before, a minor nerf to the weapon, this would balance the armor bars/attack damage, making it be a little more solid.

    I would add a 0.50 second cool down when using the manual override, to prevent spam. Also if a ninja is invisable the turret shouldn't be able to detect them, unless it's a manual override. Kind of just makes sense tbh, like the turret has a camera and it shoots when it detects a player. Idk.

    Each player should get one bite of the cake, and add a cool down to prevent one player from using the cake every five seconds.

    Honesty the turret manual override should be a wooden shovel, cause an engi already has a turret to protect them from assassins, and being able to hit someone with a sword while simotatiosly spamming arrows at them isn't exactly fair.

    It'd be much easier to just remove engineer imo.

    Ok, firstly, The manual override shoudl always be a sword, not for attacking per-say but more for blocking pesky assassins.

    Secondly, only noobs use the override, because its almost impossible to accurately aim the damn thing up close or at a distance, Its like using the mage damage spell but from another person. Its hard enough to both shoot and predict where the player will go as it is.

    Giving the engi any more armor will upset people. Giving it any less damaging of a weapon will upset me.

    TBH I think Engineer will always be away from competitive. Necro needs a rework, and shouldn't be banned from comp.

    Engineer will not be allowed in matches, regardless of what you do to it. It will also not be removed, sadly, because it's a paid class and it will be a nightmare for Brawl to issue refunds (to all of the people who actually bought engineer). By the way, if you're planning on actually improving skill wise, no offense, but you should take the 30 seconds out of the game to get to the enemy flag rather than being a noob and "teleporting" there. It's frustrating enough that people, like you, make these pointless engineer (dwarf and necro included) threads and protesting that they should be in matches. There are reasons for them not being allowed. Dwarf, for the most obvious. Necro, because the spawners can block key entrances and exits. Engineer needs a rework, I'll give it that; however, it will not be playable in matches.

    I agree. Engineer is annoying enough in Regular CTF. Necro could use a rework, but I think it is fine for now.

    Believe it or not, there's actually a way to play engineer objectively (capping by using your turret to slow down people recovering, building it and destroying it as you go along, using your regenerator for health). The update would need to allow this to be slightly easier (since everyone will target you if you attempt this), and camping needs to be impossible to do.
