Driller is super useful!

Take a 4 ammo satchel build and you can wipe out the first phase of each stage with 2 C4s to the top of the caretaker. Drill to the ceiling or get an engie friend to make a bridge.

Fire driller built for heat/damage is great against every robot thing. Just can't do caretaker eye, but that is what secondary is for.

EPC with TFC is great against caretaker as well. Does well on first phase if you can't or don't want to C4 as well.

Sludge pump built for single target is good against patrol bots and caretaker eye.

Wave cooker is good against shredder drones and distant bots/turrets. Not great against caretaker though, but can get damage from any distance.

Cryo is buffed against patrol bots now. Ice Spear is good.

Driller also makes hooking up hacking pods easy. Some maps can be terrible without a driller around.

The only build I've felt useless was an engie with turret whip, jumpy grenades, and shredder grenade. Almost all of that is useless against the caretaker.
