You rarely hear about melee specs because they’re the ones who protect you from the shadows. The backline is clear because Lance Corporal John Hatchet killed Young Drone (XX-407) With his machete, completely scaring away all of the other xenos. The PFC’s can roam free on the backlines with their no attachment MK2 because of one mans efforts. Do some research before trying to ruin their name in acid goop.
I dont know, give them a hard-to-remove heavy-battle exoskeleton that has an unremovable metal shield on the right/left hand side, and no-armor speed basically? Maybe hard-core level brute damage resistance, but only medium-level acid resistance… maybe neuro (and I mean ALL sources of neuro) would instead slow them down to heavy-armor speed?Probably a flashlight better than the B12’s as well.
Oh you know what? The exoskeleton will be damaged over time, repaired by blowtorches and cables (and it takes 30 seconds to repair to full durability from 25% durab), actually lets add the battery consumption as well.
