Best defense operator in BF 2042.

In earlier Battlefield games, the engineer class's job was to repair friendly vehicles and destroy the enemy ones. But classes no longer exist, and the new Specialist system has made its way into the franchise. BF 2042 features two Engineer class Specialists at launch—Irish and Boris.

Here's our pick for the best Engineer Specialist in Battlefield 2042. Keep in mind that the following ranking is subjective, and it doesn't mean that the lower-ranked Specialists are bad in any way.

1. Kimble "Irish" Graves

  • Specialty: Fortification System - Contains options for point defense.
  • Trait: Veteran - Additional armor / Recovers more armor.

Our top pick is Irish because both of his abilities are powerful and . If required, he can place a series of deployable covers which block incoming bullets. Moreover, his Shootdown Sentinel Trophy acts as a countermeasure against RPGs and explosives. Players can utilize this to secure a vantage point.

For instance, sniping from the safety of the shield makes you less vulnerable to distant enemies. Additionally, the extra armor is extremely beneficial and boosts the amount of damage you can take before getting eliminated.

2. Pyotr "Boris" Guskovsky

  • Specialty: SG-36 Sentry Gun - Engages nearby hostiles.
  • Trait: Sentry Operator - Nearby Sentry Guns are more effective.

Boris comes second on our list as his defensive abilities are slightly limited when compared to Irish. Nonetheless, he is a very useful Specialist as players can utilize his Sentry Gun for holding an objective or defending a point of interest.
