–Patchwork | ||
Patchwork is an agent in XCOM: Chimera Squad.
Description[]
Patchwork lost her entire family during the invasion and suffered three traumatic amputations. She ended up in an ADVENT orphanage, where she was fitted with prosthetic limbs and trotted out as propaganda, proof of the aliens’ benevolence. Brilliantly intelligent, her aptitude with technology was rivaled only by her curiosity. After discovering evidence of ADVENT atrocities, she engineered her own rescue by XCOM and joined their cause.
Patchwork’s specialty is all-caps TECH. She is a valuable combatant against robotic enemies, a master hacker of security systems, and an expert in the strategic application of deadly electric shocks.[1]
Patchwork's weapon of choice is an Assault Rifle.

- Using Stasis Field on the last active enemy in an encounter extends the encounter another turn - allowing allies to heal, and special abilities to cool down.
- Armed with the epic weapon Impetuous Spire and upgraded with Superior Extended Magazine, the weapon's Banish ability delivers six shots in a row against a single enemy on a full clip, albeit with slightly reduced aim.
