What Assault does

A mobile front-line specialization built to reach enemies in cover and create aggressive angles.

The official role describes the job, not a mandatory weapon or fixed squad. Standard Specializations can support different Operators and can be adjusted at The Den as the campaign develops.

Field strengths

  • Fast repositioning
  • Pressure against covered targets
  • Strong flanking role

Planning risks

  • Forward positions can expose the Operator
  • Needs a reliable exit or support plan

Squad fit

Pair with Scout information or Heavy protection so the Assault can cross dangerous ground with a clear target.

Before committing Focus Points

  • Name the job this Operator performs on the current squad.
  • Check whether the weapon AP cost supports that job.
  • Identify which teammate creates the opening this role needs.
  • Preserve a recovery or retreat plan before moving forward.
