### **NEW ROGUE – CANNON**

Cannon grew up in Kansas City on a diet of action movies, pro wrestling, and barbeque.  Following his dreams of operating a machine gun on an attack helicopter, he joined the Army but was too big for that role. Despite this setback, he proved himself one of the most reliable machine gunners within the Rangers before joining Rogue Company.Cannon is also very cute.

### **ROGUES**

**Switchblade** – *Our goal with these changes is to reduce the viability of using the chaos launcher’s direct damage rocket to damage an enemy and quickly swapping back to your primary guns to finish low HP targets. We also are reducing the size of the rocket slightly to more accurately line up with what the targeting indicator displays in game.*

* Increased the lockout time after using the Chaos Launcher before you can swap to other weapons

### GADGETS

**EMP Grenade**

* Now cancels duration based abilities: Scorch’s Overheat will extinguish, Fixer’s glasses will stop working, Sigrid’s shield will be disabled etc.
* Now awards $250 for each deployable destroyed

**Incendiary Grenade** – *The goal here is to make Incendiary Grenades burn out a bit sooner and feel less oppressive. In addition, we also are increasing their damage slightly so they are more of a threat when you can catch enemies inside. Their DPS will be higher, but they will do less damage overall as a result of the shorter duration.*

*Finally, The radius upgrade is about as big as we’re comfortable with, but it’s not as significant of a step up from the base as we’d like it to be. We’re reducing the base radius and keeping the upgraded radius the same.*

* Duration reduced from 8.5 to 6 seconds
