Basic Power Armor Guide

Description []

You are a versatile hero, with equally strong offense and defense.

You can use a multitude of weapon systems, activated individually or simultaneously, to create an overwhelming wave of firepower. Faster than any other class, you can become invulnerable to the attacks of weaker enemies.

You can work well on your own or with a team, thanks to your multi-weapon toggle framework and "Targeting Computer."


Multi-Weapon System Activation[]

One of the major advantages of the Power Armor set is its ability to activate multiple weapon systems at a time. When using Power Armor powers, take note which slot the weapon system occupies. You are able to fire a weapon from your hand, shoulder and chest simultaniously. For instance, you could be shooting a Concussor Beam, an Eye Beam, and Micro Munitions all simultaneously (assuming you have the energy for it).

Also note that PA's Energy Builder has a unique advantage called "Automated Assault" which has pros and cons specific to how you build your PA hero.
