Key Terms (5-soldier)

You'll see the following key terms in many soldier class features. Area Fire: This is a special action usually made with weapons that have the area trait. This type of action is used to launch weapons that affect a wide area, such as a burst, cone, or line. Auto-Fire: This is a special action usually made with weapons that have the automatic trait. This type of action is used to fire weapons in rapid succession, affecting all foes in a wide cone. Suppressed: Suppressed is a condition often applied by the soldier when using area and automatic weapons against targets. Creatures a soldier suppresses might receive additional conditions and other negative effects using feats with the suppressed trait; a soldier can only apply one such feat each time they use an action that confers the suppressed trait.
