Our female soldier has a fast-paced, action playstyle with a drastically shorter tutorial. She has more gun damage but traps and towers are more expensive. Our male strategist has a more relaxed, strategic playstyle. Although he is proficient with the saber and bow, his true strength lies in cheaper traps and towers.
The Soldier's arsenal includes loot found in-world: Freeze Grenades, Pet Hawks, and Berserk Injections!
[h2]
Freeze Grenades[/h2]
Freeze grenades, pets, and injections upgrade within the same mission depending how much you use them.
[h2]
Pet Hawks[/h2]
Pets do physical damage to nearby enemies.
[h2]
Berserk Injections[/h2]
In berserk mode, you run faster, take no damage, punches are much stronger, and you gain the ultimate shockwave ability!
