List of Tactician Skills

All 6 Skills

1 Shield Wall Icon Shield Wall You deploy a half-height holtzman shield that provides cover during combat for you and your allies. It will also slow enemies who attempt to pass through it - giving you time to take them down.

・ Cooldown 22
・ Stamina Cost 15
・ Duration 25
Lv. 2:
・ Cooldown 20
・ Stamina Cost 15
・ Duration 30
Lv. 3:
・ Cooldown 18
・ Stamina Cost 15
・ Duration 35
2 Gravity Mine Icon Gravity Mine This mine, when triggered, uses a modified secondary phase Holtzman field to amplify the effect of gravity in a spherical area. You can use the sphere to slow enemies and drain their power or decrease the speed of projectiles.
Lv. 1:
・ Cooldown 30
・ Stamina Cost 15
・ Duration 17
・ Power Drain 2%
3 Solido Decoy Icon Solido Decoy You use a miniature solido projector to project a near-perfect image of yourself onto the battlefield. Triggering it again will force the projection to move forward, fooling enemies into attacking.
Lv. 1:
・ Cooldown 23
・ Stamina Cost 15
・ Duration 15
4 Anti-Gravity Mine Icon Anti-Gravity Mine This mine, when triggered, uses a modified secondary phase Holtzman field to negate the effect of gravity in a spherical area. You can use the sphere to life enemies or prevent fall damage during traversal.
Lv. 1:
・ Cooldown 25
・ Stamina Cost 15
・ Duration 17
5 Iron Will Icon Iron Will You have developed such a strong sense of self, that you are able to alter your thought patterns to avoid the manipulations of the Bene Gesserit voice at the cost of stamina. At least, those of lesser practitioners.
Lv. 1: Stamina Cost 45
6 Source of Power Icon Source of Power You place out a powerful generator that continuously regenerates power for nearby allies. Though the device uses a form of nuclear fission, it is small enough to be safe provided that it is given adequate time to cool between uses.
Lv. 1:
・ Cooldown 35
・ Stamina Cost 15
・ Duration 20

It would take 16 Skill Points in total to fully max out the Tactician Skill Tree.
