Support (class)

The Support class is a multiplayer class in Killzone Shadow Fall.

Overview

The Support Class is arguably the game's most versatile class. The primary ability of the Support Class is the Revive Drone, which deploys a hovering medical robot that can resuscitate critically wounded comrades. Dying team mates who accept medical treatment and are successfully revived will receive full health with additional ammo and a temporary 25% health boost. They also avoid losing a life and having to start over from the spawn point – which can make all the difference during intense matches, particularly in custom Warzones with limited lives turned on.

Fulfilling the crucial supporting roles that enable other players to complete objectives and continue to fight, Support players form the backbone of any successful team. Advanced Support players will pay close attention to the flow of battle and the current mission objectives, adjusting their secondary abilities between spawns if necessary.

Abilities

Name	Description
Air Support Drone	The Air Support Drone ability deploys a flying combat drone that protects the area indicated by the Support player and unleashes minigun fire on any enemies that get close.
Spawn Beacon	The Spawn Beacon ability sets up a temporary in-field spawn point for team mates. Spawn Beacons can be placed almost anywhere in the map, but it takes a while to install them and they’re vulnerable to enemy fire.
Turret	The Turret ability deploys a sentry turret that will automatically target enemies in its forward facing field of view. While not indestructible, sentry turrets are ideal for guarding choke points and defending mission-critical areas.
Supply Box	This ability lets Support Class players set up a Supply Box, which team members can use to stock up on health and ammo. The box can be destroyed by enemy players.
Support Teleport	Allows Support Class players to teleport directly to a team mate in need of medical or tactical assistance. The teleportation device has a lengthy recharge time after each use.
Tactical Echo Emitter	This ability places a gadget that scan's the environment at set intervals for enemies. This works similar to the tactical echo ability of the scout but scan's a lot faster.

Trivia

• The Helghast Support outfit resembles the outfit of the Helghast Engeneer in Killzone 3.
  • However, the Support outfit in Shadow Fall looks more 'futuristic', which makes sense, because Shadow Fall takes place 30 years after Killzone 3.
• The Support class in Shadow Fall seems to be a mix between the Tactician, the Engeneer, and the Medic classes from previous games.
