I have a Problem with Decay. :/
It never hits the Enemy Correctly, it always flys in a different way. :O
Its a strong skill but its useless this way.

How can i use it right?

PS: Do you know a good Strategy for Suppression?

It does hit, but the animation of the technique is random. It flies in any direction, but it always hits the target you are locked on to.

Mitch is right.

A good strategy (that has always worked well for me) using Suppression is already on the first post. I can give ya another example of using it though...

You know when you're in a run and everyone is in the middle of fighting a mob & there is another mob nearby? Right when yall already took down most of the first mob, run off and aggro the other mob and Suppress them. Make sure you target an enemy in the mob you are Suppressing so you don't Suppress the first mob. Then make sure you leave a little distance so you won'y Suppress the first mob & cancel out people's pushes and targets on the firat mob. Then target one of the main threats (healers, snipers, pushers) and start taking them out with DoTs (while standing between the first mob and the Suppressed mob to spam heals on the group) until your group is done with the first mob. Then hit them with your AoEs and continue targeting main threats then the rest. You can repeat this process as well.

Also.. When fighting off Pushers, stand up against a wall near your group so you don't get pushed everywhere & you can spam heals better while taking them out.

Try it! Just take a little practice & getting the timing done right.

EDIT: I am so adding the info about what I do against Pushers. X.x

Suppression is the handiest technique a good engineer can have but it does take a lot of practice to time it right and at the correct place ;-)
The Best advice I can give is, never use it during battle when your teammates are shooting the mob aswell. It stops auto attack and Aoe breaks the stun anyway. Always keep that in mind and your Teammates will always appreciate it.

Instead Use it when your on your own all of a sudden or just before you engage a mob, it will freeze em efficiently and you can target them off one by one... Don't use Transference untill the stun has finished though.

Another tip is if all your Teammates are dead and still surrounded by a mob. Use suppression first then Revive. They will appreciate it all the more.

Good luck and happy Stunning!

Since the release of The Hive and UCS Savant, I tried a full INT build & kept my skills build the same with the exception of switching to Leech instead of Sonic Boom. Its a good build but I feel really squishy so I will be going back to my original stat build too. However, I might keep Leech. I mean its a great skill for survivability and Sonic Boom has saved my butt a lot since day 1... But seriously our skills as Engineers really need to be tweaked. :/ Sonic Boom is awesome but needs to have a better push effect to be more useful. Especially at level 6. Leech is also great but its not stacking up as much as I hoped it would.
