The suit slot certifications are infantry armor modifications that allow the player to tailor their class while on the battlefield. Unlike Infantry Helmets or Infantry Armor, which are purely cosmetic alterations, Suit Slot certifications provide an ingame advantage to the player and are purchased with Certifications. Engineers start the game with ammunition packs in their utility slot (4), and can unlock tank mines or anti-personnel mines to equip in that slot instead. However, regardless of what is equipped in your utility slot, you can always drop ammo packs by switching to your nano-construction tool ( 5 ) and pressing the Fire Mode key ( B by default).

Using their Advanced Construction Engine, Engineers are able to perform field repairs on friendly mechanical units and deploy anti-infantry or anti-vehicle turrets to strengthen positional defenses. Engineers are also the best class to use vehicles with.
