“Hunting alien monsters. This is not how I thought my career would go. Not complaining! Just… wow.” — caira
One can only imagine the confusion at the weapons lab when Caira put in her order for a Grenade Launcher that shoots both Napalm and Healing rounds. As a qualified combat Medic, she thoroughly enjoys both saving lives and setting stuff on fire. Her Acceleration Field is also the perfect pick-me-up for an all-night hunt.

Loadout
Caira has an interesting loadout for a Medic. Her grenade launcher can fire both Napalm and Healing Grenades—set the enemy on fire and heal fellow Hunters with the same weapon. Her third skill, Acceleration Field, is unique to the game. Release the speed boost to help your team catch up with the Monster.
Napalm Grenade Launcher
Mastery Reward: Increased Range
Damage: 35 Plus Residual Burn Damage
Explosion Radius: 5 Meters
Ammo Capacity: 4 Grenades
The Napalm Grenade Launcher launches incendiary grenades at your foes, setting them ablaze. Tap the Primary button to select the weapon, and squeeze the Fire trigger to toss the grenade. Hold the button down to display an arc for precise aiming. The enemy continues to burn after impact, keeping the hurt on for a number of seconds. You can reload the launcher at any time with the Reload button.
Once the Monster has been captured within the Mobile Arena, hit it with a Napalm Grenade, and then switch to healing if necessary. Keep the fire going throughout the battle to maximize damage.
Napalm Grenades work well against Wraith, as long as you can make contact with it. After it sends out its Decoy, the Monster is cloaked for a short time. Hitting it with the grenade sets it on fire, revealing its location.
Healing Grenade Launcher
Mastery Reward: Increased Range on Area of Effect Burst
Healing Amount: 125
Explosion Radius: 10 Meters
Ammo Capacity: 4 Grenades
The Healing Grenade Launcher creates radial blasts of healing energy wherever it impacts. Press the Secondary button, followed by the Fire trigger to throw the grenade toward the reticle. Hold the button down to bring up an aiming arc that allows for more precise tosses. You can reload the launcher at any time with the Reload button.
Look for allies who are currently engaged with the Monster, and launch Healing Grenades at them to keep them in the fight longer. The area of effect burst allows Caira to heal multiple targets at once. Line up your throws so that they land between two or three Hunters to maximize the healing.
You can use the Healing Grenades to pick up an incapped Hunter from afar. As a character bleeds out, toss the healing projectiles their way until he or she stands again.
Unlike Val’s MedGun, Caira can use the Healing Grenade Launcher on herself. Fire the projectiles at Caira’s feet for some self-healing.
acceleration Field
Mastery Reward: Increased Duration
Bonuses: 40% Increase in Sprint Speed, 50% Increase in Jump Height
Cooldown: 45 Seconds
Max Duration: 13.5 Seconds
Once the Acceleration Field has been used, Caira and anyone surrounding her are sped up to incredible speeds. Tap the Equipment button to release the speed boost. Lines appearing to come at the group indicate that a character is under the speed effect. Caira also informs the team about the start and end of the ability. Other Hunters must stay near Caira to keep the speed up.
This boost in speed works very well when the group needs to get to an objective quickly, such as the Monster, an egg, or a survivor. From the back of the pack, release the field to bunch everyone up and avoid leaving Hunters behind.
Caira’s Acceleration Field is also useful in combat. Activating the speed boost as the group battles the Monster can help the Hunters move more quickly and dodge its attacks.
Combine Caira with Maggie for a rush tactic in Hunt mode. As soon as the team touches down and Daisy picks up the Monster’s scent, move up beside the Trapjaw and use the Acceleration Field to get the speed boost. Use it again when it becomes available. This gives the group a much better chance in reaching the Monster at Stage 1.
