Assault Abilities

|---|---|
| Devices | Description |
 Blitz |
Blitz is a shield mounted on the Assault's back and can block bullets. The Assault is powered up by his exoskeleton to accelerate to high speeds and knock down his target. The Blitz deals no damage but knocks the target onto their back knocking them out of the fight for a few moments. Blitz is ideal for knocking down multiple targets and having teammates follow up and clean up the stunned enemies. |
 HEAT |
A back mounted device which emits powerful microwaves onto its target. The amount of damage dealt increases the longer the device is maintained on the target. The affected target can't sprint or fire their weapons but may activate abilities and melee. When deployed, the Assault will become a slow moving target but will be able to suppress enemies with the device active. The beam of the device may be focused for more damage to the target at the cost of Field of View. |
