Engineer or Medic?

[Phantom]

I don't know which support class I should pick at the moment... the medic class or the engineer class.

I find it would be useful for engineers to set up some barricades to hold off the hordes of nords but I also find medic class pretty useful for some group heal or ressurecting.

Right now I'm working for an archer class so which support class would be the most useful for an archer or for the team as a whole?

since a medic can carry more than one box it is better for commando which can survive with 1 weapon (2h) only

but since an archer needs arrows (at least 2 slots) engineer is better (ammo box / barricade)

As a Sniper I love my ammo box. Really handy when you are behind a shield wall and run out of ammo.

It really depends on your play style, the ammo box can be really useful for archers, but then the medic box is useful for helping the team.

It's really down to how you intend to play.

Tinkerer is also useful for helping the team. When you do a shieldwall, the barricades are useful for keeping out bots and the ammo boxes are useful for refilling the medic boxes (and archer ammo). As a medic you can heal your allies with is highly appreciated and the animation looks incredibly silly (that's what did it for me ).

Without barricades it is difficult for archers to shoot over shield walls. Without barricades valkyries, jotnes and occasionally knights become ridiculously hard.

The majority of the population are medics(including me), but if you should really choose whatever your place style leans towards.

I choosed engineer. So can someone give me a little brief on what to do as a tinkerer? Like what do I get and how do I use it?

Tinkerer path gains small ammo crate, barricade, heavy barricade, and explosive barrel. Small Ammo Crate is a one time use ammo refill that can be placed on the ground like a deployable shield. Barricade and Heavy barricade are like deployable shields, except stronger (and you have to build them up). Explosive barrel is a barrel you place on the ground and hit to detonate, killing Nords in the general vicinity.

Where do I get them to equip in my inventory?

Most likely place is the Auction House, or get a friend to make one for you.
