Master the Engineer class in Mass Effect: Legendary Edition (ME1)! Learn about all available talents, from Pistols to Medicine, and how to upgrade them effectively.

Alright, let's talk about the Engineer class in Mass Effect: Legendary Edition! This guide's gonna break down all the cool tech and combat talents you'll have access to as an Engineer. We're focusing purely on what the Engineer can do, so we won't be covering those universal talents like Charm, Intimidate, or Spectre Training, nor any special bonus talents you might pick up. If you're looking for full build advice, definitely check out the dedicated builds page!

Here's a look at the talents available to your Engineer, and when you can start upgrading them. Remember, you get a talent point every time you level up, and some talents have prerequisites that require you to have invested points in other abilities first.
