Wild Assault Dev Log #33: DEADLY TOXIN-MARQUEZ

[p] You wanna know what gives life meaning?[/p][p][/p][p]Hello Wild Ones![/p][p]Today we've released the Season 2 Valiant usage stats, with MARQUEZ emerging as the most popular Valiant. For this week's Wild Assault Dev Log, we're trying something different! Let's delve into a comprehensive understanding of our very own Dr. MARQUEZ![/p][p][/p][p]Physique: SLIM BODY[/p][p]Role: Specialist[/p][p]Abilities:[/p][p]Tactical(Q) — GAS GRENADE[/p][p] Marquez fires a toxin gas grenade that deals damage to nearby enemies and creates a toxin gas area that lasts for a period of time. Enemies inhaling the gas take damage over time (DOT) and experience reduced movement speed.[/p][p]SIGNATURE(E) — TOXIN TRAP[/p][p] Marques deploy toxin mine, dealing AOE damage and DOT toxin damage to enemies.[/p][p]Ultimate (Z) —TOXIN LOCKDOWN[/p][p] Marquez fires multiple deadly toxin bombs at a certain area, locking it down. Enemies within the area take a certain amount of DOT damage. Use right mouse button to switch between different firing modes.Passive — TOXIN STIMULATION[/p][p] When attacked, Marquez accelerates venom secretion, reducing the remaining cooldown time of current abilities.[/p][p]Compatible Guns: Submachine Guns\\Marksman Rifles\\Shotguns[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Childhood:[/p][p]Marquez faced constant criticism for everything he did, gradually developing an obsessive pursuit of perfection. To others, Marquez appeared flawless and relentless—always muttering, "No, not enough yet."[/p][p][/p][p]Career at Huli BioTech:[/p][p]As an adult, Marquez became a researcher at the Biotechnology Institute, working under Lianhua (mother of HongYing) on bioengineering projects. Despite repeated rejections of Marquez' research proposals, Lianhua supported Marquez in continuing her work.[/p][p]The institute specialized in studying the Feral Relic—a substance with dual potential for medical applications and toxicological research. Its work spanned two divisions:[/p][p] Medical Division (exploring therapeutic uses)[/p][p] Toxins Division (studying hazardous properties)[/p][p]Driven by a desire to surpass her mentor, Marquez grew increasingly fixated on breakthroughs. To accelerate progress, Marquez secretly conducted illegal experiments in abandoned labs. Though Lianhua urged Marquez to stop, the institute’s leadership tacitly endorsed the methods due to dramatically improved reagent efficiency. This rift deepened their conflict.[/p][p][/p][p]Rise and Fall:[/p][p]Marquez’s exceptional talent soon secured a role in the institute’s top-secret Project Genesis. Leading the team, Marquez developed a reagent that enhanced soldiers’ physical capabilities for combat. When questioned about side effects, Marquez consistently evaded answers.[/p][p]The lab was eventually raided by law enforcement. The only stable reagent sample vanished—prompting Marquez to inject the remaining unstable solution into herself, declaring: "I will reclaim everything I've lost someday."[/p][p][/p][p]Desolate Legion and Hidden Motives:[/p][p]Rescued by HongYing during an Desolate Legion mission, Marquez recognized HongYing as Lianhua’s daughter (having seen photos in Lianhua’s office). Though HongYin remained unaware, Marquez silently monitored her—whispering, "You disapprove of my methods, don’t you, little bunny?"[/p][p]While the Desolate Legion sought to hoard the Feral Relic resources to create superweapons and end wars, Marquez predicted they would instead dominate the world through threats. Thus began Marquez’s covert plan to undermine them...[/p][p][/p][p]Total Combat Hours Since Early Access: 116,166 hours[/p][p]Win Rate: 57.55%[/p][p]Average K/D: 3.17[/p][p]Kills per Match: 32[/p][p]Deaths per Match: 9.76[/p][p]Average Score per Match: 6,868[/p][p]Achievement Completion Rate:[/p][p] "Toxic Buffet": 13.86%[/p][p] "Never Ending": 2.49%[/p][p][/p][p]Battlefield Role[/p][p] Suppress Health Levels: Weaken enemy sustainability and hinder recovery capabilities.[/p][p] Stabilize Frontlines: Disrupt enemy assaults/counterattacks through area denial.[/p][p] Territorial Control: Gradually encroach on enemy positions using zone control tactics .[/p][p][/p][p]Skill Strategies[/p][p] Tactical(Q) — GAS GRENADE:[/p][p] Deploy in chokepoints to block paths or apply preemptive slow.[/p][p] Cover high-cover positions to force repositioning.[/p][p] SIGNATURE(E):[/p][p] Conceal in bushes, corners, or objective zones for ambushes.[/p][p] Ultimate (Z):[/p][p] Split the battlefield to isolate targets during team pushes or cut off retreat routes.[/p][p][/p][p]Weapon Recommendations[/p][p] Offensive Focus (Aggressive Playstyle):Submachine Guns (MAC-10) / Shotguns (AKS):[/p][p] Capitalize on Q for close-range duels.[/p][p] Use E for intel gathering/slowing advances.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p] [/p][p]Control Focus (Mid-Range Dominance):Marksman Rifles (VSK-92):[/p][p] Suppress enemies at medium range with precision fire.[/p][p] Combine Q+Z to lock down movement during pushes.[/p][p][/p][p]Survival Techniques[/p][p] Leverage SLIM BODY for evasive maneuvers; maintain optimal engagement distance.[/p][p] Prioritize cover utilization and repositioning to offset low HP (120) .[/p][p][/p][p]Team Synergy[/p][p] With Healers: Compensate for low sustain (e.g., pair with HongYing's AOE healing).[/p][p] With Scouts: Enhance area control via enemy positioning intel.[/p][p] With Tanks: Deploy poison clouds to cover heavily-armored assaults (e.g., Ryan's charges)[/p][p][/p][p]That's all.
