An expert in area denial and close protection. Damages enemies with concussive blasts, and restores the team’s armor.</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" ><strong><u>FALCONER:</u></strong> The aerial attacker. Deploys an airborne assault drone to electrify enemies. In an emergency, can even revive teammates from afar.</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" ><strong><u>RETCON:</u></strong> The hologram berserker. Can warp back to a previous point in spacetime, restoring health and ammo to recover from dangerous situations. Lethal in all time zones.</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" ><strong><u>SPOTTER:</u></strong> The marksman.
