Being a [[traitor]] engineer can be both the easiest and hardest task on the station. On the one hand, you can go almost everywhere on the station, and have easy access to the tools to get rid of any pesky doors (or walls) in your way. Also, many crew members don't bat an eyelid when they see an engineer wearing a jetpack, or standing in a hole in the wall. Any curious crewmen are usually deflected by saying you are doing engineering work ("I need this to repair hull damage, Captain!") | Being a [[traitor]] engineer can be both the easiest and hardest task on the station.

On the other hand, Engineers lack weapons. <s>Stungloves, however, are the hidden weapon few ever search for, which can give the upper hand in a fight.</s> Stungloves are gone 5ever, but stun prods can be made from basic tools! In addition, cable restraints may be constructed from cable coils. In a pinch, the welding tool is a fairly powerful weapon which causes burn damage when turned on. Secondly, engineers loitering near their target may quickly arouse suspicion, especially if you are far, far away from a maintenance tunnel. Engineers are also one of the few jobs which retain their maintenance access, making travel around the station significantly safer, faster and easier. | On the other hand, Engineers lack weapons. <s>Stungloves, however, are the hidden weapon few ever search for, which can give the upper hand in a fight.</s> Stungloves are gone 5ever, but stun prods can be made from [[Makeshift weapons|basic tools]]!

And finally, if you truly hate the station, it is within your grasp to release the <strike>kraken</strike> singularity, and generally sabotage the power supply of the station. | And finally, if you truly hate the station, it is within your grasp to release the <strike>kraken</strike> singularity, and generally sabotage the power supply of the station. | ||
