Primary Weapon | Secondary Weapon | Gadget |
K1A - When it comes to damage, K1A can be placed somewhere in the middle. However, its recoil is easy to handle, especially when you add extra attachments such as suppressors and grips. Also, K1A has 30 rounds in a magazine which should be plenty enough. | C75 Auto - A small automatic pistol that works best at a close distance. Deals a lot of damage and has a recoil that is easy to control. | Bulletproof Camera - Take it if your team wants to have a better view. Otherwise, Impact Grenades will be a better choice. Impact Grenade - Useful in destroying walls and trap doors to make a new entrance into a room. Impact Grenades can also deal a lot of damage to players. |
Vigil is a light armored and very fast Operator who is part of Attackers. Vigil's unique gadget is Electronic Render Cloak (ERC-7) which scans nearby electronic devices and removes image from nearby cameras. Vigil can also use a Bulletproof Camera or Impact Grenades.
ERC-7 as a cloaking device
Thanks to ERC-7, Vigil can approach his enemies unnoticed - they won't be able to see him in their cameras. ERC-7 has reach of 12 meters and it needs only 1 second to disrupt a camera. This gives you a chance to surprise Defenders and to attack them from a least expected direction.
ERC-7 and its limitations
ERC-7 can last for 12 seconds. Remember - even though Vigil is invisible to cameras, his footsteps can still be heard. Interacting with the environment in any way, e.g. shooting, deactivates the masking cloak.
