ARC Threat File: Agile Assault Unit "Leaper"
Overview
The Leaper is a highly agile quadrupedal ARC brute frequently encountered in open, high-risk zones. Designed for rapid engagement and area suppression, it combines formidable close-range shockwave attacks with astonishing leaping capability, enabling it to close distances and crush Raiders with alarming precision. Historically regarded as an avoidance priority, it remains one of the most dangerous mobile threats in contested regions.
Tactical Role & Deployment
Leapers are commonly deployed to guard high-value objectives or to patrol alongside swifter, smaller units—creating layered, dynamic threats that challenge even coordinated Raider teams. During earlier developmental phases (Tech Test 2), this unit was designated as the "Bison."
Combat Mechanics & Attack Patterns
Crushing Leap: The Leaper’s signature attack involves a rapid, long-distance leap that inflicts heavy damage even on near-misses. Its tracking is exceptionally accurate, capable of striking Raiders at full sprint.
Shockwave Pulse: Emits a close-range area-of-effect blast to disrupt groups and punish nearby aggressors.
Behavioral Aggression: Known for relentless pursuit and minimal recovery windows between attacks.
Weaknesses & Effective Countermeasures
Blaze Grenade Strategy: A cost-effective method involves throwing a Blaze Grenade directly onto the Leaper, allowing the burn effect to deplete its health. After the burn ends, a second grenade followed by one or two Heavy Ammo shots typically secures the elimination.
Mobility Exploitation: While fast, the Leaper has a brief recovery period after landing—use this window to deal focused damage or reposition.
Team Focus Fire: When operating in squads, concentrate fire on its limbs or central body during its attack animations.
