Loadout Guide

My "namesake" build. Good mix of single target for quick HVT killing (high value target) and just enough safety with Banshee Cryo Bolts to scout ahead of the team without too much risk, while having the means to deal with stationnaries (Spitballers, Brood Nexi, Breeders, etc) on your own by freezing them and finishing them off with BoM GK2.

Perks are as follow:

  • Passive: Sweet Tooth, Resupplier, Born Ready
  • Active: Field Medic, Iron Will
