Ok first of all i don’t wanna make this post a rant, rather i’d like to express concern about this spec. Everyone seem to be too busy complaining about Ranger buff to notice that turret engi basically screw the game much more than a pew pew ranger does.
The problem is that, while a power ranger can be easily taken down when focused and much of his burst can be negated by simply dodging, you can’t say the same about a turret engi. They have lots of survivability (via boons and direct healing), lots of CC and soft-CC, their turret are quite hard to kill (especially against a smart engi who spreads his turrets if you try to get rid of those you’ll melt pretty quickly) and deal a huge amount of damage, especially if you’re berserker. What’s even worse is that turrets are semi-permanent and with the self repairing trait it means that one an engi has spread his turrets into a point that is really hard to take back. A medium-good turret engi requires 2 or even 3 people to kill it.
But ok, you can play around it, rotate between points and screw the engi for placing all his turrets in one place. The problem is when there are 2,3 or even 4 turret engies (this happens a lot to me in SoloQ)… that’s a death sentence. Every match i played against a team with 2 or more brain-equipped engies it was a terrible loss.
So what’s your opinion? What strategy do you use to fight against them? Are there any hard counters widely available (like using reflects for ranger)? Do you think they’re OP or fine as they are? Discuss
