| Shots fired at enemies affected by your flashbang will ignore armor for as long as they are stunned. | ||
Mechanics
Enemies stunned by a player thrown Flashbang Grenade will have all damage taken go directly into their health during the duration they're stunned.
Strategy
As stated, all shots on a target stunned by a Flashbang Grenade thrown by the player will fully ignore armor. This greatly helps weapons with little to no armor penetration, as it can effectively halve the number of shots required to kill a target. It also helps against heavily armored targets like Heavy SWAT or Shield units by nullifying their increased armor. Note that damage dealt does not damage armor, so once a target is no longer stunned they will have the same amount of armor as when they had become stunned.
As with other Tactician skills, it is highly recommended to use the Scrounger skill to regain Flashbangs over the course of a heist. Top Up is also useful to provide extra Flashbangs, which can offset the low pickup rate of Scrounger.
As Bulldozers are immune to flashbangs, they are not affected by this skill.
