Titanfall eGuide Pilots Pilot Tactical Abilities

Tier 1 Kits

Tier 1 Kits

Unlike the Tactical Abilities, Tier 1 Kits are passive, requiring no interaction on behalf of the Pilot to benefit from their bonuses. There are a total of six Tier 1 Kits, each with their own benefits. Before selecting one, take into account your other loadout selections and find a kit that complements them.

Tier 1 Kit

Enhanced Parkour Kit

The Enhanced Parkour Kit allows you to wall run and wall hang for increased periods of time.

Kit Unlock: Level 1

Field Notes

  • This kit allows you to maneuver throughout each map the way a Pilot is supposed to. Increased wall running allows you to get from point A to point B in seconds and evade pursuers if being chased. The increased wall hang will allow you to ambush enemies and catch foes by surprise.
Pro Tip: Flamesword

Become familiar with the Enhanced Parkour Kit. It will come in handy and save you in many situations. When being pursued, run off building tops and grab the wall before dropping. You can catch your pursuer jumping right past you, putting you in a better position to take them out. Be sure to let go of the wall once your pursuer passes you—aiming down your weapon’s sight is a lot more accurate than hip firing.

Tier 1 Kit

Explosives Pack

The Explosives Pack increases your ordnance ammo capacity as a Pilot.

Kit Unlock: Level 1

Field Notes

  • The Explosives Pack is extremely useful if you are a player who tosses a lot of grenades, mines, or Satchel Charges. This kit will give you one additional piece of ordnance, boosting your offensive capability.
Pro Tip: StrongSide

Using the Explosives Pack when equipping the Arc Grenade is extremely useful if you find yourself fighting Titans a lot. You’ll have three Arc Grenades to stun a Titan. First throw the Arc Grenade to stun the enemy Titan and then unload with your Anti-Titan weapon for about five seconds. Repeat this process with your other two Arc Grenades. You will have done a considerable amount of damage to the enemy Titan and, if you have a teammate assisting you during this fight, you’ll most likely kill the enemy Titan.

Tier 1 Kit

Power Cell

The Power Cell accelerates the recharging of your Pilot’s Tactical Ability.

Kit Unlock: Level 1

Field Notes

  • This reduces the recharge time of your Tactical Ability by about half. However, this is only an advantage if you use it consistently. First, get in the habit of always using your Tactical Ability when it is available. Once you find yourself needing your Stim, Cloak, or Active Radar Pulse a few seconds earlier, then you will be ready to use this effectively. This is strongest when coupled with the Active Radar Pulse since it shaves off a few vulnerable seconds where the opponent can sneak up on you.

Tier 1 Kit

Run N Gun Kit

The Run N Gun Kit allows you to fire small arms such as pistols and SMGs while sprinting.

Kit Unlock: Level 31

Field Notes

  • This kit allows players with SMGs and pistols to run through minions while keeping their speed, allowing them to traverse the map. Players can also chase down enemy Pilots while keeping their top speed and being able to fire at the same time. Its greatest use is when you can sprint from building to building while you engage the enemy.

Tier 1 Kit

Quick Reload Kit

The Quick Reload Kit accelerates the reload speeds of all your Pilot weapons.

Kit Unlock: Level 42

Field Notes

  • The Quick Reload Kit is exactly what is sounds like. This kit is especially effective with some of the powerful slow reloading weapons like the Kraber-AP Sniper and the Archer Heavy Rocket. Also, if you are a run and gun type of player, this is a great kit to stay in the action while decreasing the chances of getting caught off guard.

Tier 1 Kit

Stealth Kit

The Stealth Kit makes your footsteps silent, and makes your Jump Kit exhaust nearly invisible.

Kit Unlock: Level 48

Field Notes

  • The Stealth Kit comes in handy if you specialize in aggressive game play. The kit makes your footsteps silent, allowing you to creep on enemies and assassinate them. This kit also makes your Jump Kit less noticeable, allowing you to flank enemies more efficiently and escape as opponents will not be able to hear your movements.
