Your nothing without your
polarity gun.



Ten Ton Hammer continues their series on the Tabula Rasa Engineer with
this insightful look at effective field tactics.  How should
you use your defensive skills and when is it best to hack an enemy
machine? Where does the extremely valuable Polarity Gun fit
into all this? We have everything you need to know to become a
better Engineer just inside.

Hack has been mentioned as a tool to do this when
your turrets are
shooting a machine you don't want them using, but it has other uses
too. Wait for a Stalker to advance over the top of enemy troops and
then hack it. As soon as it detects enemies at it's feet, regardless of
the target it has picked to attack, it will drop it's bomb scattering
the Bane underneath and drawing their aggro. Bane Turrets are also
capable of drawing aggro for a while. Even hacking a Shield Drone can
draw some but more importantly allow your turrets to fire through the
shield without penalty and thin out your enemies faster.
