— In-game description

Trailblazer is a basic ability for Skye.

Description[]

Trailblazer is primarily an Intel ability that Skye must equip before casting. Upon casting she creates a Tasmanian Tiger that she takes control of. Skye's body will remain still in a channeling position whilst using the tiger, leaving her vulnerable to enemy gunfire and utility. The tiger has a limited vision radius, runs along the ground, and is controlled using movement and jump keys. Once it expires the tiger will self destruct. Skye can cancel the ability herself by recasting it whilst in control of the tiger. If Skye's body takes damage whilst she is in control of Trailblazer, the ability will be ended early.

The tiger also has the ability to leap forward, ending its duration early to explode upon completing its jump. The blast will concuss anything in range, with the duration falling off from the center towards the edge. If the tiger comes into contact with an enemy agent during the jump it will bite them, dealing 30 damage.

Enemies can deal damage to the tiger and destroy it.
