Rusted Path

Difficulty: Medium

The Path of Rust revolves around durability, corruption and brute forcing your way through obstacles. Pick this path if you enjoy standing your ground and letting the fight come to you.

Pros

- Standing on rusted tiles makes you highly durable; regenerating wounds and removing stuns.

- You are able to destroy walls, objects, mechs, structures and airlocks using your grasp with ease.

- You can instantly obliterate silicons or synthetic crew members with your mansus grasp.

- You have a high amount of disruption abilities to make it easier to fight in your territory

Cons

- Extremely overt; throws stealth completely out as an option.

- If you are not on rusted tiles, you become significantly more vulnerable.

- Being locked to a territorial conflict makes it much easier to use destructive tools (like bombs) against you.

- Your high amount of defenssive power is at the cost of offensive power.
