Orbital Shield

The Orbital Shield is a Support gadget introduced in the 13.4.0 update.
== Appearance ==
The main unit appears as a black box with several modules with the Centurion Armament logo on the back.
When activated, it creates a medium-sized transparent blue dome around the user, which will block incoming projectiles from enemies. Anyone, enemy or ally can enter the shield, and can fire out of the shield.
The shield will slowly fade away, until it causes a deactivating shockwave which will push back any enemies near the shield.
== Strategy ==
The gadget is useful as a support item for the team, it will protect any teammate inside the shield. It will not protect against enemies who go inside the shield however.
The user can prematurely deactivate the shield by pressing the Gadget icon.
If the user is killed, the shield will deactivate, and the killer will get a special achievement 'Infiltrator'.
=== Tips ===
* Try to stand in the middle of the team to protect as many teammates as possible.
* Fend off any enemy from getting inside the shield.
* This can be used to protect important points such as flags or capture points from enemies by standing in the middle of the point.
* If you are around the user, protect the user as much as possible.
* If multiple enemies are near the shield, deactivate it and use the knockback to finish them off.
=== Counters ===
* Use Wall Break weapons and target the user.
* If at close range, rush towards the user and quickly kill him/her with a shotgun or melee weapon.
* Using any Gadget Blocker weapon/gadget around the user will deactivate the shield.
* Use a high damaging weapon such as the One Shot to quickly destroy the shield.
== Trivia ==
* It was developed by Centurion Armament.
* Dr. Lindholm is equipped a different version of the shield, which will only protect herself, but will block any attack, making her invulnerable.
