Tactical Q/LB/L1/LB
Mobile Shield
Description Throw a drone that projects a moveable energy shield.
Cooldown 15 seconds

  • Throws a drone that projects a large shield in front of it.
    • Maximum throw distance is 25m; it will then travel to the reticle
    • If the drone hits an enemy, it will deal 20 damage.
  • Lasts 20 seconds unless destroyed. A loud hum can be heard when the drone is about to fade out.
  • Press the tactical button again to target a new location for it to float to, without changing shield's orientation
    • Mobile Shield's movement speed is equivalent to double the crouch speed with weapons out (or walk ADS with a shotgun). When it falls off an edge, it falls slowly at the rate of 1 m/s
    • Doing so within 5m radius of the drone, and turning up to 90 degrees (oriented relative to the drone), will also reorients the front toward the marker on the ground, in addition to move the drone to the marker
  • The shield consists of an upper half and lower half. Each half has 500 health, and can be destroyed separately.

  • Newcastle and his squadmates cannot damage a friendly shield, nor shoot through it.
  • Cuts off line of sight for Wattson's Perimeter Security fences, deactivating them.

  • Due to the fact that the shield is slow in movement, consider the general vincinity of where you will fight.
  • Due to above, consider its overall cooldown time as 35 seconds instead.
  • The Mobile shield's effective range is anywhere you have line of sight.
    • Deployment provide users a safe space to confirm enemy's precise location
  • If your fighting area is small, consider throwing the shield close to you (so it will deploy soon), then redirect it to your destination.
  • As the shield works from either faces, when escaping from a fight with enemies firing from behind, throw it in front of you close to your feet, and then redirect toward your running direction.

    • Level 3/Level 4: 500
  • The Knockdown Shield starts to regenerate after 1 second
    • Generate 1HP of shield every ~0.25 seconds. (1 HP per tick)

  • Cannot utilize Wraith's portal while reviving
  • Conducting the following actions while reviving will automatically disengage the revive:

  • Even with the Gold Knockdown Shield purchased, the durability of the Revive Shield remains at 200.

  • Since you do not need to hold down the "use" button, you have extra finger dexterity to move around, and even redirect your mobile shield if you had it out.
    • That being said, you do not need to move while reviving.
  • Always look at the surronding, and reorient your shield as needed - both of them, as you can also use and move your mobile shield.
  • Note that using the passive to revive has a loud audio cue, in addition to being visible
    • A way to stealth the revive is to drop the knockdown shield before using it; however, the sound of revive still remain.
