Tactical Characteristics (500 Cost)

Post-enhancement, it has evolved into a fire-support specialist:

  • Maneuverability: Higher mobility and space aptitude than the base model, though it sacrifices its shield.
  • Mega Beam Launcher: Short 3.5s charge time allows it to capitalize on stuns created by allies.
  • Close-Quarters: Competent enough to bridge the 40s overheat gap with standard weaponry.

Correct positioning makes it a nightmare for enemies. However, its fragile frame rewards precision and punishes the slightest error in situational judgment.

Trading defense for the ultimate tactical advantage—speed and suppression.
