Since everyone has their own unique playstyle,XDefiantallows you to choose a particular faction to gain distinct abilities. Each group excels in various fields, from support strategies to tactical espionage. Here’s a look into allXDefiantfactions and their abilities.
All XDefiant Factions and abilities
XDefiantoffers five factions to choose from, with the following groups:
Thanks to the wide variety of factions, it should be easy enough to pick the right one based on your playstyle. But, since eachXDefiantfaction comes with distinct abilities, we’ll break them all down to give you a better idea:
Libertad
XDefiant’sFreedom Fighters excel in support roles with their handy healing abilities. They are known as “expert medics” whose mission is to free those in their Caribbean nation of Yara. Take advantage of this faction’s many healing items to last longer in the field.
Phantoms
Phantoms, also known as Shadow Team, use the power of advanced technology and shields to dominatematches. They are among the most challenging factions to eliminate due to their highly defensive strategies.
Echelon
The Echelon faction focuses on espionage, playing the role of spies for the NSA’s Echelon initiative. If you enjoy sneaking operations, try this team, as they will appear invisible on the minimap. They also have the beneficial ability to showcase enemy locations to keep all allies informed.
Cleaners
Although you would think Cleaners are tied to some form of cleaning, they are actually Pyro Technicians. They deal a hefty amount of damage to enemies using their fiery weapons. You’ll get the chance to wield tools, like a flame thrower, to set the battlefield ablaze.
DedSec
Those who enjoy messing with the enemy can joinXDefiant’sDedSec faction. These Cyber Attackers disrupt the opposing side’s plan by scrambling their HUD and taking control of their devices. They also have a few other tricks up their sleeves, including the stunning effect of their trusty Spiderbot.
More factions may be included in the future, but for now, five are set forXDefiant’slaunch. If there are any changes, we’ll update this guide with more information.
