–Dirty Bomb Profile |
Merc Overview[]
His airstrikes are great at locking down enemies in the open, and defending/clearing outdoor objective areas. Can throw ammo packs to keep his team-mates loaded.
Profile[]
As veteran fire support controller Skyhammer explained to the regimental Court Martial, "Nothing goes just a little bit wrong with an airstrike." Now operating in the private sector, his teammates benefit from his steely nerve and wealth of hardened tactical experience. He used to fight for Queen and Country, now it's for the paper that bears her image, and whoever has the most of them.
A go-to guy for massive frontline firepower and ammo resupply, Skyhammer's airstrikes are great at tying down enemies in the open, knocking out Extraction Vehicles, and defending/clearing outdoor objective areas. Airstrikes won't work indoors, but he can still keep his teammates stocked with ammo, and is a crack shot with his Assault Rifle at range. His airstrike marker will act as a low damage grenade indoors, and have a much shorter cooldown when an airstrike is not summoned.
Abilities[]
Air Strike[]
The Air Strike Marker can be thrown to designate a line that is perpendicular from where you were facing when it was thrown, then after a short wait, will be decimated with a barrage of high explosives dropped by an overhead drone coming from the right side of where it was thrown. If the location does not have a clear path to the sky, it will detonate, dealing some damage and starting a shorter cool-down.
Ammo Pack[]
These can be dropped on the floor or throw directly at teammates. Picking up an ammo pack instantly refills your reserve ammo to full. Throwing it directly at a teammate speeds up their ability's cooldown slightly.
