Plasmatech also features some of the best survivability in the game and they are especially adept at mitigating sustained damage like you often find in burn phases because all of their DCDs last an incredibly long time while having relatively short cooldowns.

They also use a special type of plasma in their rifle’s power cell so that their blaster shots can more easily set their foes ablaze. ![]() Welcome to my guide for Plasmatech Vanguard!
