The Soldier

Soldiers are outfitted with an ocular synaptic processor allowing them to fire with heightened focus at their targets. Whether they are picking off Covenant at long range, or disposing of a pack of Flood up close with a shotgun, Soldiers can overcome any obstacle with sheer firepower. They are the only class capable of wielding assault rifles, and are masters of all other forms of weaponry and ammunition types. When Soldiers utilize their Adrenaline Rush ability, they seemingly slow down time around them giving them precious moments to eliminate foes with lethal accuracy. Additionally when battles get heated, Soldiers can deploy an explosive concussive shot to knock down multiple enemies.

Powers

The Soldier class’special abilities is Adrenaline Rush. It can be described as “a boost to speed reflexes and weapon damage.” To put it more simply, and in words that Max Payne would understand, it’s Bullet Time. It allows you to slow time for long enough to pick the perfect headshot with your sniper rifle, or have time to unload half a clip (or more) of your assault rifle into your helpless victim of choice.

Concussive Shot is a heavy blast capable of knocking an opponent off their feet. It is undoubtedly a useful skill.
