The Dapper Gentleman returns to battle decked out with space for a third gun. But does he look the part?

General Destruction 5/5

Personal taste but I’m obsessed with this. It’s giving a glimpse into some battle background. Maybe he was a corporal in a war, maybe he was a collector of memorabilia, maybe he just really likes old war movies! Either way the rusty orange of his armour is reflective of his age while the classic white coat and beret are sophisticated and balance out the colour. The shades are the final touch that say he’s classy AND cool. Nicely done, sir.

Earl Grey 4/5

Certainly suave. Dapper in a dinner suit with a stylish overcoat, sensible waistcoat and enough armour to protect from any afternoon tea shrapnel. The gold accents are rich and regal while the shades are more down to Earth. It’s not a huge departure from his original skin though why fix what doesn’t really need fixing? Really strong and fairly cheap, surprising when you consider how expensive it looks!

Neon Sunset 3/5

Bold. That the only word for this skin. Here to make a statement, Ballistic is decked out in a violet overcoat with matching trousers and dress shoes over red and orange zebra print. The glasses are in the same style. It’s something. Definitely leaves an impression.

Bionic Brink 3/5

The most battle-ready skin of the bunch. In cyborg style, this rustic skin shines with the arm showing exposed circuitry, armour protecting his chest and a covering over his right eye. Purple accents line the coat and pop in the hair but otherwise it’s mostly whites and greys. The construction of the skin matches the equipment on his back; mostly metallic with some glowing elements that stand out. It’s well thought out but not the prettiest to look at- somewhat like his battle strategies.

Technomancer 2/5

Some bold colours that I wouldn’t expect to see on him given his age and personality. He seems like more the sort for darker colours, blacks or neutrals. In neon, though it matches the battle pass, he really stands out. It’s poor for battle and painful for the eyes. Glasses are cool though!

Some excellent skins to go with some excellent abilities. What new changes will this legend bring?
