Background Story

The Engineer is a man driven by more than mere eccentricity. Once a humble, hard-drinking builder in the Legion, he came to be a master all manner of machines. Wielding a blunderbuss of his own design and hoisting ale and a veritable armory on his back, he is a strange but impressive sight on the battlefield.

Skills

The Keg

Type: Magic - Target: Position
Never going into battle without a full keg of Ale, the Engineer also knows that it can be used as a powerful explosive in a pinch. When heaved into a battle, it stuns and damages enemies where it lands. He drinks this stuff.


Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Effect
Mana Cost 80 100 120 140 Throws a keg at target location, impacting after a 1 second delay. Enemy units in radius take 100 / 150 / 200 / 250 Magic damage, are stunned for 1.25 / 1.5 / 1.75 / 2 seconds, and are pushed 250 units away from the impact point.

If the Engineer is in the blast radius, he too will be knocked back, but won't be stunned.

Steam Turret

Type: Physical - Target: Vector
The Steam Turret is a marvel in rapidfire technology. Deploying at the place of his choosing in any direction he wants, it lays down waves of suppressing fire that slow enemies who stay in the cone.


Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Effect
Mana Cost 100 100 100 100 Creates a Steam Turret at the target position facing the vector direction. Fires 10 shots a second for 5 seconds in an 800 distance 400 radius cone.

Bullets hit all enemies they come into contact with, dealing 10/20/30/40 Physical damage, pushing them 10/15/20/25 units away from the Turret, and applying a stacking 3,5% movement slow.

Max slow is 10 stacks or 35% movement.

Each additional bullet that hits a target reduces the effect of that hit by 10%

The turret dies in 3 hits, gives 50 gold bounty

Spider Mines

Type: Magical - Target: Self Position
The Engineer can create small burrowing mines that activate and run at enemies who pass over them.


Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Effect
Mana Cost 90 100 110 110 Creates a Spider Mine at your location. Spider Mines are stealthed, and appear when an enemy comes within 200 units of them. The Spider Mine then chases the target until contact, whereupon it will deal 150/200/250/300 magic damage in a 250 unit radius.

One charge will be consumed upon placing a mine. Can store up to 1/2/2/3 charges, that replenish every 30 seconds.

Mines move at 600 speed and grant 400 vision.

Energy Field

Ability Type Magic - Target Type Self Position
Deploying his patented Energy Field Double-Magnetic Modulator v3.0, the Engineer can guarantee that any enemies who enter or exit the active field are purged of all buffs and then silenced and perplexed for a short time.


Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Effect
Mana Cost 200 200 200 Places a gadget at the Engineer's location that lasts 6 / 8 / 10 seconds, takes 4 hits to kill, and creates an Energy Field in a 475 radius around itself.

Any enemy who enters or exits the Energy Field is dispelled, takes 100 true damage, and Energy Field is applied to them for 2 seconds. While inside the bounds of the Energy Field, they take 50/75/100 Magic Damage per second.
