Abilities & Strategy
Overview
The Antoran High Command's three commanders attack their enemies both face-to-face and from inside their command pods. Only one commander is out of their pod at any given time, and commanders still in their pods attack their enemies using the might of the Legion military. While a commander is attacking directly, their command pod is empty and can be commandeered. After a period attacking their enemies face to face, commanders will Assume Command and return to their pod. On Mythic difficulty, Screaming Shrikes will appear periodically and channel Extract Interloper in an to attempt to remove your allies from command pods they have commandeered. Additionally, the effects of Psychic Scarring last for the duration of combat.
