Python
Python
Python is what happens when Fire Viper defects and spends sufficient time away from biopaste rations Advent gives to their forces, such Vipers eventually transform in to their natural form while retaining some of the statistics like flame retardant skin, but their flame spitting capabilities have became dormant.

Arsenal:
  • Magma Rifle
  • Pythons Tongue (better accuracy than Vipers)
Special abilities
  • Immune to fire and poison
  • Rifle can ignite on hit, 15% baseline, +3% per weapon tier.
  • Takes reduced damage from burning enemies (in case they would go for a melee strike while burning)
Starting abilities
  • Fire Shoulder (immunity to fire)
  • Marauder
  • Apex Predator
  • Tongue pull abilities
Strenghts
  • Innate shredding via rifle, it also deals more damage than normal assault rifles
  • Slightly bulkier than other Vipers
  • Can shoot twice from standstill and can pick skills that will turn it in to a deadly Ranger-esque unit
  • Just great DPS perks across the board
  • Very accurate with tongue pull, use it to pull enemy humanoids to stun them, she can also pull friendly units towards her for 1 AP (non turn ending)
  • Fire Immunity !
Weaknesses
  • Very ammo hungry class and Alien weapons only have 2 weapon slots
  • High damage spread
  • Not as high enough aim to compensate against defence 30 enemies, weak accuracy against units in cover
  • No spitting capabilities
