My tactic for ops:

1. Turn on your armor buffs if you have them (Protection and Force Shield).
2. Run around the pillar for about 15 seconds until you tire them out.
3. Keep running around the pillar but then stop turning around and run in a straight path towards another pillar.
4. As the tired op runs towards you, hit them with suppression and turn on another pillar. (lasts 6 sec)
5. On the 3rd second of suppress move an inch away from the edge of the pillar and hit them with pain. Watch them waste buffs. If they don't they will eventually. Do not freak out..
6. Spam 2-3 Dots and move an inch back behind the pillar. Do not try to foce in all of them because pain only lasts 3 sec...
7. Run around the pillar and you should still have Full HP. Just run until pain, dots, and suppress regen and repeat.

IMPORTANT: Be persistant. Do not give in and run after the op if he doesn't start running around the pillar with you. Do not try to squeeze in all the dots. Issue your most powerful DOTs first.

If you have the right build killing an op will only take one round of running, but to get a clear cut definitive idea of how many runs for the average engi, do at least 3. After these 3 runs, feel free to go ahead and spam DOTs in front of them and say "gf" as you run and the DOTs do their work....

Know what Lurch looks like so you know to use pain when they waste it! Lurch is the most annoying skill for an engi so avoid it at all costs. If you get hit with lurch and get mutilated by an op but manage to get around a pillar. HEAL! Their capacity to heal is nowhere near yours, so take advantage and ignore when they call you noob or pillar hugger.

And....There will always be a couple of ops that will win no matter what. Don't challenge them for revenge, challenge them to learn their tactic and modify your tactic to accomodate and win. Usually its just a switch of an implant.
