Passive ability
Open Port identifies powered terminals through adjacent walls, but never reveals people behind them.
Active ability
Ghost Key opens a locked service door after a three-second channel. Taking damage cancels the attempt.
Signature ability
False Network broadcasts phantom terminal activity in a chosen block. It misdirects trackers without creating fake enemy silhouettes.
Strengths, limits & counters
Cipher creates routes, not direct damage. Guard their channel or deny access to terminals; unpowered districts remove much of their advantage.
Your place in the team
Solo: unlock a service exit before looting. Duo: ask your partner to cover the three-second channel. Trio: send one ally along the new route. Squads: broadcast false terminal activity opposite the team’s real crossing, then leave the terminal together.
Recommended loadout
BLACKOUT interrupts electronics beyond a locked entry while NEEDLE handles the close follow-up. Keep the EMP’s warning ring away from your team’s own deployables and do not enter with an empty SMG.
Reading the specifications
Mobility, armor and utility use ratings from 0 to 100; a higher value means more capability in that category. Armor is not a health total or a percentage of damage blocked. Ratings compare operators only, not operators with vehicles.
