Equipment Availability

• All infantry classes use Frag Grenades by default, but have access to additional grenade types, unique for each class.
• Med Kits and Restoration Kits are unlocked for all classes at the same time.
• Weapons and their attachments are unlocked to all classes that can use them at the same time.
• Suit Slots, C4 and other explosives need to be unlocked individually for each class.
• Most of the Implants are shared between classes, but some implants can only be used only by certain classes. Some implants are restricted from MAXes.

Health and Shields

• Every class except for Infiltrators has 500 shields and 500 health.
• Infiltrators have 400 shields and 500 health by default, but they can increase shields to 500 by equipping Nano-Armor Cloaking ability.
• Auxiliary Shield utility item is available to every class for free and equipped by default. It passively increases shields by 50.

Health doesn’t regenerate by itself, unless you have a Regeneration Implant or a captured Biolab on your current continent.

Shields regenerate automatically:

• Shield regeneration starts in 6 seconds after you take damage. In 4 seconds for Engineers. 
• It takes another 6 seconds to fully regenerate shields. This time can be reduced by 2-3 seconds by Advanced Shield Capacitor suit slot.

MAX units have 2000 base health and a slew of built-in resistances and vulnerabilities to certain weapons. Importantly, MAXes take only 20% of damage from most bullet-type weapons, which means they have 10 000 effective health against bullets, meaning they take 2-3 magazines out of an average rifle to kill.
