The game features six skill trees.
Four of them apply to your character - weapon, drone, item, and physical skills.
Weapon

Heavy sniper rifles sway when aiming.
Stable aim skill reduces the effect.
It’s relevant, because often a missed shot equals being detected and failing the mission.

This skill reduces bullet spread when firing without aiming.
It can be useful in case of an unexpected encounter at short range.
Grenade Launcher
The GL is mounted under the barrel of your gun and fires frag grenades.
It’s a much faster method of delivering grenades than throwing them by hand.
Having picked the skill, you’ll need to equip the launcher in the weapon accessory menu.
Ammo Capacity
Increases the amount of ammo you’ve got the option to carry.
Thisdoes not affectthe number of bullets in your magazine.
Rarely useful, as there are ammo crates available in almost every location.
VHC Destruction
The skill increases your damage to vehicles.

Time to Aim
Reduces the time needed to aim weapons with big scopes.
Ammo Retention
Respawing refills all of your ammo.

This skill should be developed after you’ve invested in Battery upgrades.

you’ve got the option to also avoid shooting some enemies that can be simply distracted.

It’s the most important physical skill.
Second only to Bullet Resistance, when it comes to skill importance.

Squad
