Engineer
Show image
The weakest of Rifters, Engineers are technicians deployed to run and maintain Rifter machinery and technology in the field. While they have some combat training, they are armed with only basic Rifter pistols and are not very effective at using them.
- Carries Rifter pistol (Thumper)
- Has no armor or shields
Guardian
Show image
Guardians are the protectors of Engineers on the field. They are armed with powerful Rifter assault rifles and trained in tactical combat. They use cover positions more effectively and are better marksmen with their shots.
- Carries Rifter assault rifle (Mangler)
- Has no armor or shields
Karg
Show image
Reveal story — spoilers
A Rifter unlike any other the Thorns have encountered before. Karg’s armor and weaponry is far more advanced, making this foe the most deadly threat they have ever faced. Unfortunately, it stands between them and rescuing Dr. Selena Faber.
- Carries advanced Rifter assault rifle
- Has full body armor and helmet
Grenadier
Show image
Armed with sub-machine gun-style weapons, Grenadiers specialize in using throwable energy explosives to flush their enemies out of cover or force them to change position. These Rifters also have partial armor protecting them from head to toe.
- Carries Rifter sub-machine gun (Spitfire)
- Has full body armor and helmet
- Throws Rifter grenades
Striker
Show image
Strikers are unarmed Rifters intended for lifting heavy equipment when needed. On the battlefield, they use their brute strength to attack enemies. Despite not having armor or shields, they can absorb more damage than weaker Rifters. And if they get close enough, they pack a heck of a punch.
- Has no projectile weapon
- Delivers devastating melee attacks
Surgeon
Show image
Surgeons are the healers of the Rifters. They deploy a drone that replenishes the health of injured allies. The drone returns to them to recharge. Surgeons have force-field shields and are capable of firing a weapon, but their use of Rifter revolver-style firearms is not very effective and is more spray-and-pray.
- Carries Rifter revolver (Razorbolt)
- Heals injured Rifters
- Has shields
Sentinel
Show image
Sentinels are long-range precision enemies that have sensory augmentations, giving them improved accuracy compared to other Rifters. They tend to maintain a distance from their enemies, because once their accompanying drone is destroyed, they are quite weak. They gain a free Overwatch at the end of their turn.
- Carries Rifter sniper rifle (Deadbolt)
- Has shields
Enforcer
Show image
Enforcers are the heavies of the Rifters and are fully armored from head to toe. This additional weight makes them slower when moving, but the added protection enables them to ignore cover so they can get closer to their targets with their Rifter-style shotguns.
- Carries Rifter shotgun (Thrasher)
- Has full body armor and helmet
- Killing Rifters near the Enforcer triggers the Vengence Reflex Action
