Playstyle

This is a variation of the ODST Silent Assassin Build. Instead of being a silent sniper who can use smoke when its time for CQB, we are a mid to close range Smoke Walker. We want to saturate an area in smoke, and then warp in and annihilate our toes.

Smoke + Reduced Signature or Feet First) + Suppressedweapons breaks the bots brains. Since they can't "Hear" you or "See" you they cannot acquire a target to fire back. This causes them to stand still, even when being shot in the face. We take advantage of this using the AR-59 Suppressor, Eagle Smoke, and Orbital Smoke. Drop some smoke, Warp Pack in, start popping heads with no resistance. When there are heavies in the group, we bust out the Railgun for a 1 - Tap. The heavies Al also breaks in smoke, so the 1 tap is an easy line up.

Eagle smoke can also be used to break Fabricators, and Orbital Smoke can also be used to destroy Objectives like Detector Towers. Our secondary is going to be the Grenade Pistol so we can close Fabricators. And our Grenade will be the TM-1 Lure Mine. This thing is great for when your smoke is on Cooldown. It draws enemies attention forcing them to shoot at it. This will set you up for easy headshots without being shot at. Additionally, it can kill hulks with 2 mines. So that's it! Drop smoke and become the Smoke Walker.
