Packing an automatic rifle and a bunch of supporting skills, they make for a great backbone to any squad. This is the class of the protagonist, Gabe Diaz. Mastering each class and learning how they work together is vital for success. In this section we will outline all the available classes in Gears Tactics and explain what they bring to the table. Only do this if you can afford to, it is not a great idea to waste turns taking potshots on time sensitive missions. This means that the moment they try to shoot back or run, you will have a free shot at them as if they aren’t in cover. Pin them down! You can pin enemy shooters by placing overwatch on top of them, while they’re in cover. This rings especially true for shotguns and heavy cannons with obstacles in the way. Limit your arc of fire! Sometimes the effective range is more important than the maximum range, so adjusting the overwatch distance closer, rather than further, can give you more accurate and devastating shots. On top of that, you risk tons of friendly fire damage from overwatch fire, if your troops happen to get in front of each other. Spread out your squad! Having your whole team at one spot might make for a great photo-shoot, but it is also a big fat target for the enemy. If one choke-point has a large swarm of Wretches close by, it might be beneficial for you to focus your overwatch at the point where they come in. If there are enemies coming in from multiple points, it may be prudent to have all the angles covered. Hosing down your own team is also a very distinct possibility, so be careful when aiming the overwatch and take note on how you position your team around it.ĭifferent situations call for different kinds of overwatch. Proper use of overwatch can be the difference between wiping out an enemy squad or being swarmed. This makes it a lot easier to get the mine into position without having to risk walking far out of cover to plant the bomb. It is also good to note that Scouts have the option to throw the frag mine. This will prevent any enemies from ever coming out to begin with, saving you from a world of hurt. However, another great way to shut down E-holes is to plant a mine on top of the E-hole, which is effectively a frag grenade that detonates the moment the hole opens. Shutting them down in most situations will be a top priority, and according to the tutorial, this should be done with Frag Grenades. This has an added benefit of triggering your own units in overwatch and blasting the enemy, if the frag grenade didn’t finish them off.Į-holes, also known as Emergence Holes, are access points where grubs will pour in and turn your outnumbered squad into a doomed one. You can even use walls to bounce the grenades around corners, letting the grubs know that nowhere is safe.įrag grenades knock around most targets, disrupting units in overwatch and pushing them out of cover. You are able to bounce grenades off walls and other objects to extend the distance of the trajectory. The first tip might seem obvious, but is not really explained on it’s own. A single grenade used right can easily level the playing field.įrag Grenades are incredibly lethal, but they also have some nifty tricks you can take advantage of to make them even more powerful. You can then combine these tricks with the class specific tips showcased later, in order to become a master at Gears Tactics and dominate even the hardest difficulties.īombs away! Frag grenades are incredibly powerful in Gears Tactics, as your gears have the benefit of never missing their throws and able to hit multiple targets with only 1 action point.
