Passive ability
Heat Budget shortens self-generated overheat recovery while stationary. Enemy fire remains fully dangerous.
Active ability
Vent Strip lays a visible line of hot exhaust for five seconds. It blocks a rush but leaves room to jump or route around.
Signature ability
Cold Restart purges his heat into one loud defensive burst. Weapons need a short lockout before they can fire again.
Strengths, limits & counters
Kiln separates a push from its reinforcements. Wait for the exhaust to fade, then attack during his restart lockout.
Your place in the team
Solo: place exhaust across your retreat. Duo: separate the enemy pair before focusing one. Trio: deny the flank while two allies advance. Squads: announce the cooling lockout and let a teammate take over the firing lane before Cold Restart.
Recommended loadout
FURNACE and EMBER share readable heat cues, but their cooling needs can overlap. Alternate carefully: vent the primary before relying on the sidearm, and never trigger Cold Restart with both weapons hot.
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.
