Tempest Guide

Secondary Weapon: P99 or G17 — lightweight and reliable sidearms that can be fired underwater. Great for finishing stunned enemies or fighting while submerged.

Melee Weapon: Combat Knife — pairs well with her roll and speed for fast takedowns during flanks.

Class Gadget: Emergency Evasion Device — Tempest’s signature anchor that allows manual teleport or auto self-revive. Always deploy before risky plays or objective dives.

Unmatched Survivability — Thanks to the Emergency Evasion Device, Tempest can cheat death once per life. It’s the only true self-revive in the Assault class right now, giving her incredible value in both PvP and PvE.
Good Crowd Control — The Drill Charge doesn’t deal damage, but it doesn’t need to. With a wide AOE that disables enemy weapons and abilities for 3 seconds, it shuts down defenders, campers, and elite AI mobs like no other tool in her role.
High Mobility and Evasion — Between her passive sprint boost and dodge-roll, Tempest can reposition quickly, cancel fall damage, and chase or escape in seconds. She’s incredibly hard to lock down in close-range engagements.
Underwater Combat Specialist — On aquatic maps like Cyclone, her biomechatronic spine gives her the edge. She swims faster than any other operator and can shoot while submerged, making her perfect for amphibious flanks.

Weaknesses:

No Direct Damage from Abilities — Unlike operators with grenades or explosives, Tempest’s gadgets are purely utility-based. You’ll always need to finish kills with your weapons, no free damage or zone denial from her kit.
Anchor Can Be Punished — The revive anchor can’t be destroyed, but it can be camped. If enemies know where you placed it, they can wait and finish you off again. Poor placement = wasted ultimate.
Weaker Long-Range Performance — With a close-quarters focus and limited cover-based options, Tempest struggles in long sightlines and sniper-heavy maps. She’s at her best up close and in motion.
