## Innate Officer Specials

These are the skills and techniques that an Officer of level 90 will obtain. There are various enhancements that can be made to these specials through the use of expertise, but all Officers will have these base attacks and specials to work with.

### Single Target Attacks

 30 | [Target (Mark 3)|Paint Target (Mark 3)] | Lowers the defenses of the target and causes extra damage

### AoE Attacks

 74 | [Bomb (Mark 3)|Core Bomb (Mark 3)] | Very powerful AoE centred on the Officer that causes burning damage over time

## Expertise

Introduced with Publish 31/Chapter 3, Officers are now allowed the ability to choose their abilities/skills. Each Officer is allocated "points" as they level. 5 points will be initially granted at CL 10, then 1 point every 2 CLs up to a total of 45 points at CL 90.

Most skills require a prerequisite, be it a minimum CL, or a prior skill.

## Expertise enhanced specials

As with other professions, the Officer has many options when it comes to allocating points into the expertise trees. Here is the breakdown of how those points will affect the Officers abilities in combat and group situations

### Single target expertise enhancements

### Self help expertise enhancements

 File:Superiorfirepower.jpg | [Firepower|Superior Firepower] | Increases the Officer's explosive damage by 125% and explosive critical chance by 50%.

### Supply Drops

One of the areas where an Officer can really be of benefit to a group is our ability to call in supply drops. There are drops for healing stims, and tactical stims, plus the ability to call in a soldier to help the Officer out in combat.
