New Abilities: War Cry, Eagle Eye, Warlord In honor of the new, rebalanced Specialist, we’re rolling out three new Specialist abilities.
- War Cry: Increase your team’s fighting spirit! After bellowing this mighty cry, you and your allies will not lose stamina for a set period of time.
- Eagle Eye: Increase your team’s focus and concentration! Using this Ability will improve accuracy for both you and your teammates. The effect will not apply to any weapons that do not depend on accuracy.
- Warlord: Installs a reusable Warlord that allows allies to refill some of their primary and secondary ammo. Warlord can be destroyed by both allies and enemies.
