Assassin
I saw a star fade and the expanse did offer; 'no sympathy, until the last spark shines. These are my memories; us as blades quest past each synthetic pulse, in search of dreams; of peace.'
Overview
Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths
- Active Camo makes Assassin the master of ambushes and third-partying
- Smoke Screen is one of the best disengage tools
- Close to free rein if enemies don't have Recon
Weaknesses
- Gets detected by Recon, thermal scopes, and other methods
- Lacks raw combat abilities if they aren't dictating the pace
- Likely to be better at lower levels of play and gradually fall off at higher ranks
Abilities & Traits
Throw a smoke disc that emits a line of smoke fields in front of you, disrupting the optics of those who step inside.
Activate your shell's camouflage systems, pulling a shroud of invisibility over yourself. Performing offensive actions, taking damage, and using abilities or consumables briefly disrupts your invisibility.
Activate while airborne to slam a smoke disc into the ground, deploying a smoke field.
Your shell automatically activates camouflage systems when entering any smoke field, making you invisible. Invisibility persists for a short time after leaving the smoke field.
