Overview[ | ]

- Unlocked at Rank 7.
- Phoenix still works when the Feat of Strength Hardcore is active, but the player must wait the usual 10 seconds to respawn.
Notes & tactics[ | ]
- The bonus damage from this perk stacks randomly with other damage bonuses & perks. Weakspot damage bonus will be unaffected by it and will stack additively. Some perks such as Tactical Juxtaposition stack multiplicatively with Phoenix and the bonuses are changed, e.g. if both these perks are picked, the damage for the 15-seconds period would be 60% of (100+25%) = 75% of weapon damage per hit (e.g. 75% x 765 = 573 per hit if used with Plasma Rifle). The perk will not change Sweet's burning damage, nor does it change other character-related damage bonuses and will stack additively with them.
- In certain maps the player may commit suicide if the core is under attack to respawn close to it with the bonus and kill the lume(s) attacking it.
- Its purpose is mainly for cases, when the player finds too much difficulty in keeping alive, particularly in games with the Hardcore perk enabled, since then the consequences of getting fainted can even lead to a loss.
- This perk can find purpose in all game modes, although in Survival the damage component tends to lose impact over time, unless used properly along with Concussion rounds or for the purpose of other certain perks.
