Engineering

Engineering increases the Damage and healing of your structures, such as turrets and landmines. Engineering also increases the attack damage of the Weapons Plank and Screwdriver. Turrets and Landmines aren't affected by other primary stats such as Percentage Damage or Attack speed, but are affected by secondary stats such as Explosion Damage, bouncing, piercing, and other effects such as Ugly Tooth. Having negative Engineering instead decreases damage and healing of these structures and weapons down to a minimum of 1.
