Recon

Recon is one of the 4 classes currently playable in Roboquest.

Class Ability
Recon's class ability is Stealth. Stealth allows the player to enter a state of invisibility that prevents enemies from targeting them. Additionally, the unmodified ability increases the player's movement speed by 15% for 4 seconds, generates 3 charges for Recon's class perk and deploys a decoy lasting 5 seconds that draws the fire of enemies in its direction.

If the player attacks using any method while the unmodified ability is active, the player's invisibility is removed, the decoy is destroyed and the player can once again be targeted by enemies.

Class Melee Override
Without the effect of Recon's class perk, Laser Dagger is simply a basic melee attack that affects enemies immediately in front of the player, dealing a base 50 damage. Laser Dagger has no cooldown and generates an extra healing cell on takedown, like all other melee weapons.

Class Perk
Recon's class perk is Overslash. Overslash's benefits require charging before they can be utilized - 5 charges are required per use of Overslash. Charges are generates each time an enemy is eliminated through any method initiated by the player and for every use of Laser Dagger against a boss; in both cases, 1 charge is awarded per elimination or boss hit.

Once the player has accumulated 5 charges for Overslash, the next use of Laser Dagger is augmented. An unmodified Overslash consumes all 5 charges and increases the damage of the next use of Laser Dagger by 200%. Any elimination or attack against a boss made through the use of Overslash will not generate additional Overslash charges.

Class-Locked Upgrades
As well as Universal Upgrades, each class has their own set of upgrades specific to them.
