One tip that I can't remember dane saying... If you have a level 1 teleporter and you can't upgrade it or something, pick it up and rebuild it and you'll be able to teleport people faster
A little tid bit is that picking up and placing teleporters removed the cooldown for teleportation, which is useless in most situations, but can be very nice when using a level 1 teleporter, which can function pretty much at the speed of a level 2 due to the redeploy time being 5 seconds without needing to go through the upgrade animation, so youre saving 5 seconds on each teammate basically, just remember to redeploy the exist or the entrance only
You know, I always knew that destroyed buildings gave out ammo but I never thought of it as a viable strategy to use in-game. Wouldn't it be a bit more ideal to build the teleporters since they're the cheapest and then destroy them? Or do teleporters give less metal gibs to use as ammo? Either way woot we graduated from Engineer 101. Also the sound the Scout's corpse makes at 5:52 was a nice touch, I laughed a bit harder than I should have.
Teleporters only give 4 gibs so dispensers would be better also you team already uses the dispenser for ammo so they aren't missing out on much by you destroying it, but they rely on teleporters to get to the front line not to get ammo so overall it just makes more sense to do this to the dispenser
Just A Random Dood Also takes slightly longer to gib two teles instead of one dispenser, so depending on how urgent your team needs the ammo, that's a consideration. But ye, generally teles are better to gib than dispensers (given that you aren't already using teleporters, which you likely will already be using and thus can't gib without handicapping your team immensely).
Just A Random Dood Was mostly referring to manual destroys, but yeah, obviously scripts will compress the entire process into one click. But still, if you don't have a teleport up already, you're already hindering your team by not having one up. Just get the tele up instead of giving your team slightly more ammo :3
if their firepower is good and they need the ammo, i'd rather destroy a passive sentry while i whack a new dispenser, destroying buildings can look like a good idea but it's metal you aren't getting back immediately and Dispenser will always be a better investment of your metal, you can build a dispenser and get it to lvl 2 sacrificing your sentry, instead of a lvl 1 dispenser after blowing it out once while your sentry sits there doing nothing
About the dispenser giving double ammo and metal when being stood on, this also works for enemy spies. I discovered this by accident during the last Halloween event when an engi built a dispenser in a good spot to take potshots at Monoculous. I noticed I was getting double the ammo amount whenever I had to reload. Of course, the spy does need to be disguised for this to work, and I'd also suggest only doing this during the Halloween event maps.
Actually I've thought of that strategy too where you place your sentry facing the wall so people get in too deep to retreat BUT I've noticed it's not that effective because as soon experienced players hear that beeping noise that sentry does when it spots an enemy they instantly back out even though they don't know where sentry is exactly. And correctly facing sentry is more than enough for inexperienced players. :/ And thank god you take it seriously! There are already too many how to soldier/scout/sniper/spy videos but not enough Engie videos. I love playing support like Medic and Engie because at the end you actually can see that due to your help your team won. So please do keep doing these awesome high quality videos man! :)
Hey uncle it’s one of your nephews here and I just want to say thank you for making videos for us interested in being a team player(Engineer) all these years He’s genuinely one of my favorite characters to play on both defense and offense And the extra skills and Tips taught over the years really enhanced the experience Thanks Uncle Dane you were the best Engineer
i didn't think i would learn much... i was wrong. Didn't expect 5 medium ammo kits from a dispenser, since it drops so little metal. And the point about facing the sentry toward the wall to bait someone into a space with no cover is truly next level
Really love these videos. Will definitely help me improve on my Engie playin' since I'm an Engie Main myself. I'm glad I'm not the only Engie Main out there.

Back from the dead. That B/W Route 10 music (Ik it's Super Smash Bros but still) is excellent and fitting, considering that this is the last Engineering 101 video in the series and in a way, the last lap of the series.
I’m proud that I discovered moving your sentry when you’ve killed someone by myself, and then immediately see it on an Uncle Dane video. It’s not a very significant discovery but I’m a novice engie main, I used to play Pyro. But You’ve taught me well Uncle Dane.
I just wanted to say Thank You Uncle Dane for making this series. It really helped me play Engie, who before I saw this series was my least played class i now main, a lot better. I have held the final point soooo many times thanks to your advice.
One thing to note about Recharge Skipping for Teleporters: make sure you don't do the final upgrade hit until the recharge actually starts, because then a bug happens where you still have to wait kind of a long time (not sure if it's equivalent to still getting the recharge), while to your team, it looks like the other end got destroyed (unless they pay attention to the killfeed). I've botched so many Skips in my days, and I only recently learned what the trick is, thanks to this video. :)
Thanks Uncle Dane. I've watches and rewatched these videos multiple times and after 700+ hours of playing Engineer, I can now call myself an Engineer main! Thanks Uncle Dane.
Oh my god, I almost forgot the level of quality that your videos are on. Once again, you produced an amazingly informational video with awesome editing.
been wanting to get better at engineer and I this this video as well as the rest in the series are really going to go a long way in helping me get good, thanks!
One little tip i would like to add is that the wrench hits in intervals, so you can smack a building, and immediatly turn around to check for spies, look back, hit the swing, rinse repeat. It's saved me a lot of times.
I actually figured out on my own the logic of placing a sentry facing the wall. I felt so smart and satisfied at the time, and that was because I put effort into playing in different ways that aren't necessarily the meta or something like that. So, as Dane said, I suggest anyone that plays the game to experiment, and play in unexpected ways. It is like playing a new game altogether, and it feels amazing.
That last second there with the VR Google really made me laugh. After all this time i'm finally binging through all "ye olde uncles üploadés" and it is a BLAST!
Here's another tip: There's a certain position around a dispenser which allows you to upgrade it and not take any metal from it while it constantly stores newer metal. For instance, your dispenser is at level 1 and it has some metal stored. If you happen to have ammo packs around (from dead teammates for example) you can use them to upgrade the dispenser to level 2. Then that metal stored in the dispenser which you could've used draining 40 metal per pick becomes 50 metal. Basically you allow the dispenser to get a more valuable reserve of metal without draining it and at the same time, you can upgrade it via other metal sources. It's not like a fact outta this world, but it's interesting when it comes to situations where you got ammo packs around and want the dispenser at its full potential quickly
Yeah, Valve added that a couple years ago. There is even a console command you can use to force "true first person view" even if you are not playing with VR. Just type into the console: cl_first_person_uses_world_model 1 To de-activate it, type into console: cl_first_person_uses_world_model 0 The command binds the virtual camera to your character model's head, instead of their chest where it usually is, and simulates seeing your character from world view instead of client view. Meaning you can see your character's body and feet when you look down, any equipped cosmetic items (and worn items in weapons slots, like the Soldier's Gunboats boots), a bit of your shoulders if you turn the mouse slightly (so that the character swivels its head without fully turning the body). If you look up while weapon an Unusual quality hat with any floating particle effect (liike i.e. clouds or the Halloween pentacles), you can see the Unusual effect above you, while confetti will constantly rain down in front of your face and circling effects can obstruct your view). Oh, and you can see your shadow on the ground (depending on environmental light conditions on the map). The view mode can generate some weird visual glitches for you though, as it only simulates world view (so it's not exactly what other players see). There will be weird clipping with certain cosmetics. The Demoman's shoulder parrot can clip into your "face" when you look at it. Rocket-jumping with Gunboats or Mantreads on often makes the "weapon" boots float above your body model's stock boots, so that you see both pairs of boots.
Going off of the dispenser destroy tactic, an idea for an engineer weapon would be a back pack or pack that the engineer can wear. the backpack can allow him to hand out medium ammo packs to team mates, buy finding and storing packs from around the map. the engineer could hold four medium ammo packs or six light ammo paces or two full ammo packs (but not say two different sized packs at the same time). This would also half to be a replacement for the dispenser.
Well we are graudated from Uncle Dane's Internet School now we are the players that keep teaching new engies and after that when they graudated they will teach new engies how to play and this will be a natural cycle
Also, if you pick up your teleporter and put it back down it resets the recharge timer, which means that with the jag, if your teleporter is level 1, its faster to pick it up and hit it, than to wait the 10 seconds
Heres trick with wrangler. When you pick your sentry up and then put it down and, quickly swich to wrangler your building gets shield when its building. Very good if your sentry is being spammed or attacked.
This is the best 6 episode Anime series I have ever seen, and I am sad to see it go. Hopefully the intermediate spinoff “Engineering 202” gets picked up by VRV
Just goes to show that even with nearly 3,000 hours on this game, you can still learn something new. That dispenser trick and purposely facing the sentry away were things I had never even considered doing.
10:02 I can imagine a second part to this scene where he sees the enemy spy, the the rest of his body snaps quickly around to gun down the spy with ease.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS MAN! They'll really help me be a better Engie Main. Both defensively and offensively. At first I usually switch the Medic with a Kritzkrieg when on BLU who primarily attack. But watchin' your vids help me learn Engie can be just as effective. Plus, I see that stickin' by your sentry when on defense ain't always the best idea. But perhaps you could help me with somethin', ja? I'm trying to figure what would be good loadouts for offense and defense. Here's what I was thinkin'. Defense: Rescue Ranger, Wrangler, and either the Jag or Southern Hospitality. Offense: either Frontier Justice, Widowmaker, or Panic Attack, Pistol, and Gunslinger. Let me know what you think of this please.
When a sentry gun targets an enemy, it makes one of two distinct sounds before firing. One for when it targets you and one for when it targets someone else. So if you're quick enough to react and retreat when you enter a room or turn a corner and you hear a sentry targeting you, you can get away unscathed or with minimal damage received from the sentry gun and you will know that there is a sentry in the area and can do something about it in your current life. Knowing this makes sentry guns facing a wall more counter productive than helpful since it gives players more time to react when they hear the sentry gun targeting sound.
Imagine coming around a corner in tf2 to see some Texan slowly spinning his head 180 degrees to see a baguette man
The Texan screams "YeeY" to show he is the master here.
If there aren't atleast 20 gmod videos with that on youtube, I'll eat my hat (wich I don't have)

For instance, your dispenser is at level 1 and it has some metal stored. If you happen to have ammo packs around (from dead teammates for example) you can use them to upgrade the dispenser to level 2. Then that metal stored in the dispenser which you could've used draining 40 metal per pick becomes 50 metal. Basically you allow the dispenser to get a more valuable reserve of metal without draining it and at the same time, you can upgrade it via other metal sources.
It's not like a fact outta this world, but it's interesting when it comes to situations where you got ammo packs around and want the dispenser at its full potential quickly
I've... never expected engineering to be so complex, it usually just looks so simple
I recently got back to tf2 and watching your engie vids make me want to play engie again
Inb4 every Engie main buys a VR set.
really enjoyed the series, thanks for the tips
Yes! i can Technechally say i passed engineering school!
how do you make your gunslinger like that? it does a different pose so if its a gamebanana mod please link me!
Cool beans
amazing fabaceae
@Connor Lee I don't, please explain
This series was very helpful for me as I am a newer player, been watching these videos even before I got the game
Woah,didnt knew TF2 supported VR...
Yeah, Valve added that a couple years ago. There is even a console command you can use to force "true first person view" even if you are not playing with VR. Just type into the console: cl_first_person_uses_world_model 1
To de-activate it, type into console: cl_first_person_uses_world_model 0
The command binds the virtual camera to your character model's head, instead of their chest where it usually is, and simulates seeing your character from world view instead of client view. Meaning you can see your character's body and feet when you look down, any equipped cosmetic items (and worn items in weapons slots, like the Soldier's Gunboats boots), a bit of your shoulders if you turn the mouse slightly (so that the character swivels its head without fully turning the body). If you look up while weapon an Unusual quality hat with any floating particle effect (liike i.e. clouds or the Halloween pentacles), you can see the Unusual effect above you, while confetti will constantly rain down in front of your face and circling effects can obstruct your view). Oh, and you can see your shadow on the ground (depending on environmental light conditions on the map).
The view mode can generate some weird visual glitches for you though, as it only simulates world view (so it's not exactly what other players see). There will be weird clipping with certain cosmetics. The Demoman's shoulder parrot can clip into your "face" when you look at it. Rocket-jumping with Gunboats or Mantreads on often makes the "weapon" boots float above your body model's stock boots, so that you see both pairs of boots.
Going off of the dispenser destroy tactic, an idea for an engineer weapon would be a back pack or pack that the engineer can wear. the backpack can allow him to hand out medium ammo packs to team mates, buy finding and storing packs from around the map. the engineer could hold four medium ammo packs or six light ammo paces or two full ammo packs (but not say two different sized packs at the same time). This would also half to be a replacement for the dispenser.
The last one? ;(
he'll just make a new series called engineering 202
Well we are graudated from Uncle Dane's Internet School now we are the players that keep teaching new engies and after that when they graudated they will teach new engies how to play and this will be a natural cycle
I just love Dane putting more humour in his videos because I love his sense of humour
Hey, uhhhh, anyone wanna trade for a strange dupped shovel?
Yeah Starch *duped
Yeah Starch Hay guys im lookin to buy a strange duped shovel
Are you paying more than backpack price?
DA BUG
Za reference
Also, if you pick up your teleporter and put it back down it resets the recharge timer, which means that with the jag, if your teleporter is level 1, its faster to pick it up and hit it, than to wait the 10 seconds
Need the outro song, please help.
Nvm, Pretty sure its the rocky theme 'Gonna Fly Now'. Yes i'm an uncultured swine.
I saw another comment saying it's the NFL Theme Tune, definitely sounds like it is: th-cam.com/video/KxNGMvNIvP8/w-d-xo.html
Heres trick with wrangler. When you pick your sentry up and then put it down and, quickly swich to wrangler your building gets shield when its building. Very good if your sentry is being spammed or attacked.
*Hears smash bros music*
Uncle Dane is such a nerd.
I just realized the small marketing to the Uncle Dance merch to the left in the intro, that's a good marketing strategy dane.
Wait wasnt uncle Dane the credit card scammer? I saw his contribute to voiceoverPete
This is the best 6 episode Anime series I have ever seen, and I am sad to see it go. Hopefully the intermediate spinoff “Engineering 202” gets picked up by VRV
Random crits should not be removed from team fortress 2
(7:01) YOUR SUCH AN ENGI MAIN, I LOVE IT!
Did they remove random crits?
No? K, see ya.
Just goes to show that even with nearly 3,000 hours on this game, you can still learn something new. That dispenser trick and purposely facing the sentry away were things I had never even considered doing.
I haven't played TF2 in over 4 months but your videos make me want to come back and support my team when no one else will, thank you, dane!
10:02 I can imagine a second part to this scene where he sees the enemy spy, the the rest of his body snaps quickly around to gun down the spy with ease.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS MAN! They'll really help me be a better Engie Main. Both defensively and offensively. At first I usually switch the Medic with a Kritzkrieg when on BLU who primarily attack. But watchin' your vids help me learn Engie can be just as effective. Plus, I see that stickin' by your sentry when on defense ain't always the best idea.
But perhaps you could help me with somethin', ja? I'm trying to figure what would be good loadouts for offense and defense. Here's what I was thinkin'.
Defense: Rescue Ranger, Wrangler, and either the Jag or Southern Hospitality.
Offense: either Frontier Justice, Widowmaker, or Panic Attack, Pistol, and Gunslinger.
Let me know what you think of this please.
7:12 the most intense 4v0
Thanks for the series!
When a sentry gun targets an enemy, it makes one of two distinct sounds before firing. One for when it targets you and one for when it targets someone else. So if you're quick enough to react and retreat when you enter a room or turn a corner and you hear a sentry targeting you, you can get away unscathed or with minimal damage received from the sentry gun and you will know that there is a sentry in the area and can do something about it in your current life. Knowing this makes sentry guns facing a wall more counter productive than helpful since it gives players more time to react when they hear the sentry gun targeting sound.
