Thread: The one word that describes your experiences as an engineer.

  1. #1

    The one word that describes your experiences as an engineer.

    Overall, how would you describe your past experiences as an engineer using just one word? My choice would be: complexity.

    It means that there's a lot in one thing, which is exactly how I feel about this profession! The word also implies tediousness and determination, both of which are there.

    That being said, I make this thread in honor of alco and post this video to dramatically exemplify my feelings!

    Engineer as a whole: Tools

    "A whole new place to run around for ages in then die suddenly without warning."

    "I know who coded pet pathing... and when I see him I say "/follow" and I start waling in to walls :P"

    The "Trolls" option is incorrect. The term trolls is not used to describe the gathering of information on the Internet.

    My word would be multi-tasking or possible swapping

    Multi-tasking on the basis that engineers have to be able to control and micro-manage themselves and their pets. I'm sure any high-level engineer can agree with the swapping one. I currently have three full sets of armor, four HUD setups and two sets of weapons that I regularly carry on my engineer to swap as situation demands because we don't have a single setup that's useful everywhere!

    Fun

    By that I of course mean that it's way less boring to play an engi than something else like and adv or so. Swapping, casting, buffing etc. isn't fun at all, but in any situation we have lots of things to do, and I think our profession requires a lot more concentration to be used at its maximum than other ones.

    Wink

    From a much abused song

    Super - I love playing engie
    kali - Goddess with 6 arms - my god don't we need that number to play engie
    fragi -list-ic - I love to hear the sound of mobs - especially Malahs dying in the morning.
    xp - Yes please
    all - i - 40 levels of solo play
    docious - After playing engie you need a shower - bloody hard work!
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned.
