What the The Militia's Birthright (Adept) perks do

Lightweight Frame

One-shot handheld Grenade Launcher with remote detonation. [Shoot] : Fire; release to detonate.

This weapon's launch parameters are particularly stable. • Greatly increases stability • Increases blast radius • Decreases projectile speed

Countermass

This weapon is weighted for vertical recoil. • Greatly controls recoil • Increases stability • Increases handling speed

Disorient radius cannot be increased using other perks. Champions and Bosses are unaffected by Disorient. (Disorient is effectively the equivalent of Arc Blind without any of the elemental synergies and anti-champion benefits) Players near the explosion briefly lose their HUD and have their screen distorted for up to ? seconds. Duration varies depending on the distance from the blast.

Proximity Grenades

Grenades fired from this weapon have increased proximity detection but a decreased blast radius.

Spike Grenades

Increases Grenade Impact damage: • 12.12% increase on Special Grenade Launchers • 12.5% increase on Power Grenade Launchers Due to the ratio of Detonation and Impact damage being tied to the Blast Radius stat on Grenade Launchers, a lower stat will provide a slightly higher overall damage increase.

Implosion Rounds

This weapon's projectiles travel faster and have a controlled explosion. • Increases projectile speed • Greatly increases stability • Decreases blast radius
