Usage

This build is for roaming, 1v1 combaat and can withstand outnumbered fights though effective kiting. It thirives in melee engagements but also offers ranged options, providing versatility in playstyle. While its healing is relatively weak, it compensates with Elixir S & various other Stealth Stealth options, making it notably harder to kill.

How to Play

Use overheat(Photonic Blasting Module) to go BOOM. If you do this from Stealth Stealth nobody can see the BOOM coming.

Once you trigger Photonic Blasting Module, Engage Photon Forge is left on a 20 second cooldown. In that time you can keep up the damage using Spear Spear, Elixir Gun and Bomb.

A critical part of your sustain is also Stealth Stealth, you are able to exit combat or confrontation and re-sustain with ease.

Stealth Stealth Sources:

  • Smoke Bomb (engineer) - Your main source. Short CD but high duration potential.
  • Toss Elixir S - Your quick and easy access. Use when you don't have the time to cast Smoke Bomb (engineer).
  • Supply Crate(Smoke Screen (engineer)) - To trigger the smoke field use any skill while holding target on enemies within range of the turrets. Do this as soon as the Flame Turret spawns in. After the Cleansing Burst water field vanishes, you with have 4 seconds to use the Smoke Screen (engineer) to Stealth Stealth as much as needed. By using instant ground targeting you can make the crate and stun appear in different locations making the stun invisible.

Finishers:

  • Coolant Blast
  • Acid Bomb
  • Conduit Surge
  • Holo Leap
  • Holographic Shockwave
  • Devastator
  • Big Ol' Bomb
  • Detonate Supply Crate Turrets
  • Photonic Blasting Module
  • Supply Crate
