Notes[]

  • Correction: All 4 enemies do not have to be killed within 1 second. The Pauldron activates when the player's multikill streak reaches 4 or more, and the streak only resets if 1 second passes without killing an enemy.

Another antique for the collection. This bad boy was found on the battlefield where much of the War was fought. The excavation site was littered with bones, all surrounding the remains of one rebel soldier, who was carrying this artifact. According to hearsay and rumors, rebel soldiers wearing pauldrons much like this one would enter trances on the battlefield. Time would slow down, and all they could see was the enemy.

Of course, it’s just speculation, but… There were a lot of bodies surrounding this thing’s old owner. Be careful, OK?
