Build value

Why it matters when you are planning a squad

The answer to any target where a miss is unaffordable — high-Defense units, shielded leaders, anything telegraphing an attack for next turn. It is also the best carrier in the game for a critical somebody else guaranteed: a Scoundrel's Identify Weakness on a shot that cannot miss, at +50% critical damage, is the squad's largest single hit. The squad consequence is the catch. The Sharpshooter is a pure Advantage sink, so pairing it with a generator is a requirement rather than a preference.

Costs, and why most are blank

A cost is recorded here only where a source states one. Most abilities have been named without one, and an inferred number would be indistinguishable from a measured one on the page — so the field says “not published” instead.

Build around it

The Squad Builder knows which abilities compete for the shared Advantage pool, and says so before you commit a slot to two that do.

Editor’s note

Renamed from the descriptive placeholder. Whether the guaranteed hit also bypasses cover, or merely skips the hit-chance roll, is still unstated and the difference is significant against entrenched targets. Relabelled 2026-08-23. It carried a confirmed, official label on one previewer's account and no publisher statement. The +50% max-rank critical damage is a screen reading from a single session — and it is the figure the Scoundrel/Sharpshooter critical-setup synergy is argued from, so it is the first number to re-test at launch.
