Ability: Attack Pattern Lambda

Overview

(To Self +Perception +Accuracy, Targets hit -Perception -Accuracy)

Attack Pattern Lambda buffs the user's perception and accuracy while also debuffing those stats for the enemies that get hit. All targets hit also have a chance to get confused and placated.

Basic Information

• Specialization: Pilot
• Locale: Space
• Game Description: All of your outgoing weapon fire will confuse enemy targeting sensors. This results in reduced Accuracy and Perception for foes you hit with weapon fire, as well as a chance to Confuse them into being unable to tell friend from foe and Placate them into being unable to target you for a short time. While Attack Pattern Lambda is active, you also benefit from an increase to your own Accuracy and ability to detect cloaked vessels (Perception).
