ODM Gear

### Overview

The **omni-directional mobility gear** or ODM gear for short, is a type of equipment developed by humans that allows great mobility when facing the Titans in combat. It allows the user to fight in a 3D space as opposed to a 2D one. The equipment itself takes the form of a body harness that encompasses much of the body below the neck. The ODM gear uses Ultra Hard Steel Blades in order to kill titans by attacking them on the nape, with the gear utilizing a reeling mechanism in order to allow for fast travel to combat titans and reach their nape.

Within the game the ODM gear cannot be used within a 3D space as you cannot move vertically, however this greatly limit the soldiers abilities to eliminate titans.

ODM gear has a limited supply of Gas and Blades that can be refueled at a carriage cart or within HQ in Shinganshina or Trost. With the ODM gear possessing 8 blades and a limited supply of gas.

### Controls:

**M1** - Slashes at the target, at maximum default speed dealing 670 damage to titans 134 damage to humans. Dealing 600 dmg or more to titans kills them and 700 or more earns a red cut that uses 0 durability, although this requires a certain technique and is inconsistent. Humans receive 1/5 the damage you would do to a titan and it is possible to red cut or black cut them to save durability and do extra damage.

**MMB/V** - Player Counter: If a human attempts to M1 you and you use a counter, it will deal damage to the person who did the M1 instead using one durability and putting it on a medium cooldown. If you miss there is a short cooldown and it can be bypassed by vertical kick.

**Q** - The left hook is shot out of the ODM gear, reeling in the player when it makes contact with an object, titan, or player. This feature uses up gas.

**E** - The right hook is shot out of the ODM gear, reeling in the player when it makes contact with an object, titan, or player. This feature uses up gas.

**Space** - Whenever being reeled in by either of the hooks, holding down the space key increases the reeling speed granting the player high speed at the cost high gas usage.

**R** - Reloads the broken or hidden blades of the ODM Gear

**F** - Drops the current blades of the ODM Gear

**C** - Hold this button to stop all momentum upon touching the ground.

### Unlockable Abilities

Additional Abilities for the ODM gear can be unlocked through the Skill's Menu

3 Skill Points - Wx3 - **Impulse**

Dashes the user forward with a slightly longer cooldown than dodge. If hit correctly on a normal titan it will decapitate them. This requires 900 dmg or more to do, but decapping a titan rewards you with a 10 seconds cooldown reduction on all skills. This as a result lets you immediately use impulse again. If used on a player it will do 234 damage.

3 Skill Points - Sx2 - **Dodge**

Sends the user back a small amount, allowing them to get free from under a titan's legs. Gives 0.8 seconds of titan iframes and short cooldown.

4 Skill Points - V/MMB - **Counter**

3 Skill Points - B - **Blade Throw**

Throws your blades, making you lose 2 blades. If this is hit successfully it will blind the titan you throw it at. Throwing it at a mindless blind both eyes, a shifter will only lose one eye.
