RUSLAN / IN-GAME DECISION

How I decide

«I activate One for the Road as we start moving together.»

Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
01 Situation
Nearby allies need to catch someone, retreat or reposition together.
02 My decision
I choose when we move together so the group can use the short speed boost in full.
03 What I avoid
Expect a permanent passive speed boost from an active effect with limited duration.
