The Shock Stick Tactical item will have multiple uses, especially on different terrain. This item sticks to surfaces before dealing a burst of electrical pulse that not only deals damage to opponents but also destroys equipment and makes vehicles malfunction. Players can also use this Tactical equipment underwater.
Smoke Grenade
Smoke Grenades are used to reduce enemy vision. Players can use them at choke points to block enemy sightlines. It is also highly effective against automated targeting systems.
Flash Grenade

Stun Grenade
Stun Grenades slow down the opponent's aiming and movement. It functions similarly to the Flash Grenade and can be an efficient tool to catch opponents off guard.
Decoy Grenade

Every teammate can access the Tactical Camera, and this item sounds off an alarm whenever it spots an enemy trying to infiltrate the area.

The Inflatable Decoy can be used strategically to confuse and bamboozle enemies. You can essentially hold angles by properly placing this item at a spot that forces the enemies to peek a corner.
DDoS
The DDoS Field Upgrade allows players to spot enemy equipment and vehicles nearby. You can use DDoS to deactivate the equipment and vehicles and disrupt enemy sensors in close proximity.

Battle Rage
Battle Rage is a stimulant that instantly gives players a health regeneration. It's like an adrenaline rush that resists damage from Tactical equipment and refreshes tactical sprint. Battle Rage has a medium recharge speed.
Recon Drone
A Recon Drone is a manual drone that players can activate to mark opponents. Players can place this Field Upgrade at an undetectable spot to constantly mark enemies. The Recon Drone charges slowly over time.
Smoke Airdrop
Smoke Airdrop calls in a group of drones that deploys a smoke wall on a targeted section. This Field Upgrade effectively cuts off the opponent team's vision. However, the Smoke Airdrop has a slow recharge and takes time to cover an area.

Anti-Armor Rounds
