What do you like the most about Phantom? I’m curious what makes it stand out compared to the other Skill Tracks.

So far, I really like Elusive Target 🎯 — reducing the accuracy of enemies shooting at you is pretty nice, especially paired with Echo Shell.

What’s your favorite part of Phantom?

The self-redeploy zip on the hill north of Z2 can absolutely reach the Colossus when he spawns by the Colosseum.

You might have a slightly longer run to the zip once the event pops, but there’s still more than enough time to make it. Good news for anyone not running a Grapple Hook. 👍🏻

Another Max Prestige Operator added to the collection. 😤

This one is going to be my experimental operator for when the Season 4 Reloaded / Mid-Season 4 update drops and the new Guardian skill track becomes available.
The plan is to reset one of my current skill tracks, but I still haven’t made up my mind whether to replace Gunner or Warband.

Current build ideas:
• Bulldozer
• Berserker
• Warband
• Guardian

OR

• Gunner
• Bulldozer
• Berserker
• Guardian

I’m leaning toward keeping Gunner because I really like the faster reloads, especially when running the SOKOL 545 with Sharpshooter as my primary. At the same time, Warband brings solid utility, so I’m still on the fence.

For now, this operator will be my test subject once Guardian becomes available. 🤔

We’re about a week and a few days out from the Mid Season 4 update, and I’m planning ahead for the new GUARDIAN skill track.
I’ve got a Prestige 3 operator on standby and I’m debating how to set it up.
Current ideas:

Option 1
Bulldozer
Guardian
Warband
Tactician

Option 2
Bulldozer
Berserker or Eagle Eye
Warband
Guardian

My question is:
Should I build now and reset one skill later to slot in Guardian when it drops, or just wait for the update and build everything fresh once it’s live?
Curious what everyone else is planning—are you locking in builds early or holding everything until the patch drops?

Another episode of “For Research Purposes Only” 😂

The Colossus foot portal was still bugged even though the foot was up and the portal reflection was visible on the ground. I told one of my teammates to stay alive while I tested it, but both of them decided to join me at the landing spot where the portal was supposed to be.

Let’s just say… all three of us died. 💀

Game Over. Had to use 1 Restore Token to recover my operator.

Could I have dashboarded during the loading screen? Absolutely. But like I always say, this was strictly for scientific research purposes. Sometimes science requires sacrifices… and apparently this time, it was all three of us. 🤣🔬📊

Research Conclusion: If the Colossus foot portal looks active but isn’t actually working, don’t trust it. We tested it so you don’t have to. 😅

Entered Prestige 3 and the skill tracks are locked in: BULLDOZER, BERSERKER, GUNNER, and DAREDEVIL.

For my Exotic and Nightmare skills, I’m planning to run SHATTERED SHIELD, GRAVITON, PHOENIX BURST, and FROST VORTEX.

Nothing fancy or game-breaking about this build—it just fits my playstyle and gets the job done. This will be my daily driver operator moving forward—whether I’m grinding, helping others with contracts, knocking out weekly and event challenges, or running glitches solo or with a team. 😤

It’s a well-rounded setup that lets me handle pretty much any situation without having to swap builds.

For research purposes only, I sacrificed my operator and pulled the trigger anyway, hoping the new patch notes worked. Turns out they didn’t. Picking an Exotic/Nightmare Skill before your 3rd or 4th Skill Track still locks you out of choosing another Skill Track later. Science was conducted. Results were disappointing.” 😂

3rd Operator “ROOK” is now FULLY BUILT and MAX PRESTIGE! 🔥
Skill Tracks: BULLDOZER, EAGLE EYE, BERSERKER, and GUNNER
Exotic Skills: SHATTERED SHIELD & ECHO SHELL
Nightmare Skills: FROST VORTEX & PHOENIX BURST

Another operator completed. On to the next grind. 💪

I’ve watched this clip numerous times and it still doesn’t make sense. I haven’t been down in forever doing the Link Forger glitch on Nightmare. I was outside fighting the Elderly Disciple while my teammates were inside the church. One attack deleted all 4 armor plates and instantly downed both me and a teammate.

Then the same thing happened with the final boss’s blast path. Usually I just hop over it, and even if it tags me, I survive. This time the game said, “Nah, not today.” One hit and straight to the ground. 💀😂

It’s called a glitch for a reason—the Disciple was out here glitching like he was playing hide and seek with me 😂. I was doing fine until he decided to go full underground mode like he found a secret bunker or something. Had me running around like “bro where did you go?”

Ended up having to dashboard and leave the game because apparently I wasn’t invited to his hideout party lol 😂

Finally my 1st Operator has officially reached MAX Prestige 🎉. Phoenix Burst took a little longer to get, but we finally landed it.

Operator Build Complete:
Skill Tracks: Bulldozer, Berserker, Warband & Gunner
Exotic Skills: Shattered Shield & Conjuration
Nightmare Skills: Phoenix Burst & Wingman Unit.

Everything came together exactly how I wanted. Now it’s time to start working on the second Operator and complete the next build.
