Jaeger (Long War)

From UFOpaedia
Revision as of 13:34, 16 July 2014 by Tulip (talk | contribs) (Abilities)

MEC variant of the Sniper class. The Jaeger is designed for fire support, with the best aim progression of any class in the game (better even than a Sniper), and a plethora of offensive perks to increase damage. Jaegers' main drawback are their low HP progression and a poor selection of defensive perks, making them a bit fragile for MECs.
