Builds

Overview

THE FINALS is not a hero shooter as much as it is a hero Builder. You don't make a hero, you customize them. To this effect, THE FINALS has a three-Build system, each with its strengths and weaknesses.

You can create multiple contestants associated with either the Light, Medium, or Heavy Build. Each Build has a different body size as well as a unique selection of Specializations, Weapons and Gadgets (can be used by multiple Builds). The Frag Grenade for example can be used by all three Builds, while the various mines are only for the medium and heavy Builds.

Each Build has two body types rather than specifying a gender.

• Type 1: Feminine body type
• Type 2: Masculine body type

Light Build

“Exceptionally fast, but low survivability. Executes hit-and-run tactics. Specializations in stealth and evasion.”

Light is the most mobile Build, but sacrifices health for mobility. Lights have a balanced arsenal of both ranged and melee weaponry. They have a good variety of either low-damage, high-fire-rate firearms like the M11 and V9S pistol, or high-damage, high recoil rifles such as the SR-84 and the powerful LH1. Light Builds also have the option to carry the lethal but tactically limiting Dagger or the adrenaline-inducing Sword in combination with one of their specializations such as the Evasive Dash or Cloak.

Specializations	Weapons	Gadgets
Cloaking Device	Dagger	Breaching Charge	Smoke Grenade
Evasive Dash	LH1	Flashbang	Stun Gun
Grappling Hook	M11	Frag Grenade	Thermal Vision
	SH1900	Gas Grenade
	SR-84	Glitch Grenade
	Sword	Goo Grenade
	V9S	Incendiary Grenade
	XP-54	Proximity Sensor

Medium Build

“Excels in mid-range combat with average health and movement speed. Specializes in providing utility and support for teammates.”

Mediums are the jack-of-all-trades support Build, having more health than Light Builds, but are also slower. They usually come equipped with a Healing Beam, but can be swapped out for a Guardian Turret or Recon Senses. Mediums have a decent range of weapons they can choose: from the AKM, a short to medium-range weapon that has a quick fire rate and decent performance, or a versatile weapon like the R.357, or more close range but very powerful, the Model 1887.

Specializations	Weapons	Gadgets
Guardian Turret	AKM	APS Turret	Goo Grenade
Healing Beam	CL-40	Defibrillator	Incendiary Grenade
Recon Senses	FCAR	Explosive Mine	Jump Pad
	Model 1887	Flashbang	Night Vision
	R.357	Frag Grenade	Sonar Grenade
	Riot Shield	Gas Grenade	Tracking Dart
		Gas Mine	Zipline
		Glitch Trap

Heavy Build

“High survivability. Low movement speed. Specializes in objective control and environmental destruction.”

Heavies are the slowest Build, but have the largest health pool. The Heavy Build offers a tank-like playstyle, providing the resources for effectively taking and controlling objectives. They are usually equipped with a Charge ‘n’ Slam, but this can be swapped out for a Goo Gun or Mesh Shield. Heavies have a plethora of powerful firearms and hard-hitting weapons like the M60, a powerful high rate of fire machine gun, or a Sledgehammer for close-quarters combat.

Specializations	Weapons	Gadgets
Charge 'N' Slam	Flamethrower	Barricade	Gas Grenade
Goo Gun	Lewis Gun	C4	Goo Grenade
Mesh Shield	M32GL	Dome Shield	Incendiary Grenade
	M60	Explosive Mine	Incendiary Mine
	SA1216	Flashbang	Night Vision
	Sledgehammer	Frag Grenade	RPG-7
