Biography

“

Talon, a former enforcer for the yakuza, left after he was ordered to assassinate two men he saw as family. The Director's endorsement led Talon to join Rogue Company, where he fortifies the team with his expertise of the criminal underworld and unique set of skills. Despite his troubled past, he remains highly motivated to succeed on missions.

— In-game Bio

“

A skilled and highly paid enforcer for Japanese crime syndicates, Talon has more than once thwarted Rogue Company operations. His sudden change of sides is met with suspicion and distrust among the Rogues. But whether a union of convenience or not, Talon has proven he can get the job done... for the right price.

— Previous in-game Bio

Talon's shady past working for crime syndicates has made him an outsider among the other rogues. Despite his proven ability to get the job done and make the enemies fear him, his history of thwarting Rogue Company operations and the suspicion surrounding his defection often creates a difficult dynamic within the team.

Talon can attack at close range or from a further range, giving him multiple offense options. The P12K has the fastest reload time (if the Warrant is not upgraded).
Abilities- The Radar Dart can be used to find enemies that are approaching, hiding, sneaking, etc. It can be thrown to higher places can Talon can grab it from afar if it is not close to him.
Gadgets- The flash bang can be upgraded to increase throw distance, reaching enemies that are hiding behind cover further away. The second upgrade allow Talon to carry an extra flash bang. The C4 is excellent for making enemies rethink their route or area of cover choices. The first upgrade increase the throw distance and the second increases the damage.

Tips and Tricks

As/With Talon

When picking up items, try to stay behind cover so you won't be seen.

Against Talon

If you see an object flying away, follow its direction. You might find Talon in that area.
