Nightingale

Overview

A fast, flying support robot that can repair nearby allies while in flight.

Ability // Air Support

The Nightingale's ability is named Air Support. Upon activation the Nightingale takes flight in stealth mode, gaining a 10% speed boost (60.5 km/h at max speed) along with the ability to heal ally robots below it in a 75m diameter radius directly beneth the robot. During flight, the Nightingale's weapons fold back and are temporarily unavailable. However, the bot activates a built-in [https://warrobots.fandom.com/wiki/War_Robots_Wiki:Weapon_Mechanics#Suppression suppression] weapon (similar to the Rayker) that automatically fires at manually targeted enemies up to 500 meters away. The suppression gun fires one beam every 1.5 seconds and deals very low damage to enemies, however any target hit will have their weapon damage lowered by 70% for five seconds (non-cumlative). The Nightingale's healing radiates downward from itself, creating a circle with a green aura (similar to the Sirius' healing Turret when deployed) . Allies within the radius of the Nightingale's circle (along with the Nightingale itself, as well as allies above it) will be repaired at a set rate. The Nightingale cannot heal allies through roofs (like the one on Dreadnought), although the green aura does show through roofs (creating a confusing visual for those within the circle expecting to get repaired). Nightingale can fly for up to 16 seconds, but the flight can be terminated early by pressing the ability button a second time. Ability cooldown is 18 seconds.
