New Specialization Concept: The Contractor

Ever wanted your own nail gun? Well, then the Contractor and the Carpenter are for you.The Contractor: Grants access to the weaponized nail gun, the Carpenter, a weapon inspired by the Rikers’ ingenious use of unconventional arms to fight in squad-based combat. As a SHD constructed weapon, the Carpenter is unique among its specialized weapons because it has ammunition that can be scavenged from the environment, however, these scavenged rounds are less effective than the specialized Armor Penetrating Nails. This weapon is effective from cover and compact enough to be used in conjunction with any shield, but it’s lack of a gunpowder propulsion system means that this weapon is most effective at mid to close range. Lastly, performing a melee attack with this weapon active will deal heavy damage against enemy armor while expending a round. A unique benefit to this weapon is it can target enemy skill proxies to deal bonus damage or repair allied skill proxies for 3% of their max health.Grenade: Paint Grenade: A special grenade that covers enemies in the radius with paint. This paint will highlight enemies for a long time while marking them for SHD systems, making them visible through cover. The fumes from this paint can disorient enemies for a set period of time as well, status effects augment this effect.No Pistol Variant.Talents Unique to Skill Tree:Loss Recuperation: Manually ending your skill proxies restores 20% of your total armor or when their health is depleted.

When an enemy uses a skill, the Interceptor will hone in on that enemy and cause the skill to automatically backfire while also expending itself. This skill deploys up to three drones, all that increases with skill tier is the duration they stay active and their cooldown speed. 1 Rank.Field Maintenance: Every second you are in cover gives you 2% bonus armor, up to 40% of total armor.
