Tactical Items or Tacticals are a type of Weapon in The Ascent. Tacticals take up the Tactical slot rather than the Primary or Secondary Weapon, which are reserved for guns. These include different gadgets and throwables that can deal damage or apply a Status Effect. If you want to strengthen or increase the recovery charge of your tactical item, you should focus on upgrading the Cybernetics stat or equip armor pieces that boost the mentioned stat. This page covers a list of all the tactical items in The Ascent.
Tacticals in The Ascent
Tactical equipment range from grenades to robots. Deploy a tactical with G and press G again to detonate in advance. To deploy a tactical, it's required that the tactical charge is full. It's filled by causing damage to enemies.
