Fade builds
View all builds →From the guide «Fade guide»
The usual economy for an initiator: Classic on the pistol round, Marshal on an eco or bonus and Vandal with heavy armor on a full buy (3,900 credits before abilities). Buy Haunt (E) first: it is the ability that covers what an initiator needs most.
Buy every charge of your utility before your weapon: a cheaper gun with full utility wins more rounds for an initiator than a rifle with half of it. Full buy: 3,250 credits with heavy armor.
When the team cannot afford a full buy but has to play the round: Stinger with light armor (1,500 credits) or Bulldog with a regen shield (2,700 credits), and your abilities before the gun.
