Scout

- Scout when limit broken

**Scouts** are elite infantries employed under Black Tide's Metro Units that serve to protect civilians from any threat that may occur with their fellow soldiers. As their name suggests, they are usually deployed to scout through areas and acquire information on enemy lines with the help of their combat suits that provide them with incredible speed.

They are rangers who specialize in attacking both ground and airborne enemies from a distance.

## Collection Profile

*A ranged attack who grows stronger as the battle goes on.*
*Scouts are units initially used in battle removing enemy threats with a preemptive strike.*
*Armed with lightweight combat suits and submachine guns, they roam through dangerous battlefields to help allies breach enemy lines and acquire valuable information.*
*Many of them are known to be blabbermouths, but maybe it is the only way for them to relieve the stress and fear they experience in battle.*
## Equipment

* **Lightweight Combat Suit:** Suits designed to provide the wearer with excellent speed to allow them to roam through enemy lines. While it enhances their speed, it is not fast enough against bullets. Includes protection on the wearer's upper body, as well as a helmet to cover the entire head.
* **Submachine Gun**: A lightweight weapon with fast weapon firing to accommodate with the unit's quick movements.

## Personality

Scouts are considered to be the chatterboxes of Black Tide's faction. They can go on on excessively on their discussions where it can be quite bothersome to the other Black Tide soldiers. However, the reason is due to the stress and fear they experience from battles. Because of this, it allows them to relieve themselves and perform their work at ease.

During HQ interactions, the Scout maintains the same manner as he does when on the battlefield. Many of his conversations consist of things that value speed. In example, he considers cheeseburgers and coffee as godsends for him due to cheeseburgers being known as "fast food" and coffee provides a boost in energy to perform daily routines. He is also quite confident in his line of work to the point where he often brags about how fast he can get things done in a matter of time and not having to worry about falling behind. He also seems to dislike standing still as opposed to his nature.

## Trivia

* Although the equipment is said to be lightweight, the Scout confirms that it is quite heavy on him.
* Scout's profile states them as units that "grows stronger as the battle goes on." However, this is technically not true as none of his passive skills increase his attack power the longer he's stays on the field. Instead, it is his attack speed and evasion that slowly increases to fire his weapon at a faster rate as well as maintaining his survivability.
* Rangers part of the Jehuty Biotech use a palette swap of Scout's, given that the organization develops their suits to be upgraded versions of Black Tide's. These soldiers however, are nothing like Scouts from Black Tide and operate on criminal and illegal activities.
* Scout shares his Japanese voice actor, Kohsuke Tanabe, with Rifleman and Assault Trooper
* A running joke by fans of the community have stated that Scout is considered to be one of the "rarest" units in the game due to him only being obtainable from the **Recruit Through Partners** banner with a (1% chance of summoning an SR rarity unit from there), as well as having no alternate method to obtain his Unit Data from any mission like other heroes.
	+ The other unit being Lee Jisoo due to her being rewarded from a bingo event in earlier events, and not having appeared as rate up on a Classified Recruitment Banner. In current updates, the only way to obtain Lee Jisoo is by purchasing her through the game's shop using real currency.
