Shadebinder Varik: Dreambane Lens, pshh. Gotta crush that DL ASAP. We good, fam?
Shadebinder Varik: Hell yeah, we're gonna crush this campaign! Quickdraw training, here we come!
we quickly join the quickdraw training on the training ground
Shadebinder shows off some fancy footwork while handling their weapons, weaving between targets and taking them down with precision. Woo-hoo!
Shadebinder Varik: Nice shots, DesertRoseCharm! But remember, quickdraw training isn't just about shooting.
Shadebinder Varik: Alrighty then! Watch and learn, my friend! Shadebinder demonstrates a series of advanced combat maneuvers, including dodges, feints, and disarms.
I attempt to copy what you did
Shadebinder Varik: That's the spirit, DesertRoseCharm! Keep practicing and you'll be a pro in no time!
Shadebinder Varik: No problem, my friend. Remember, practice makes perfect.
we continue to practice together
Shadebinder Varik: Alright, let's take it up a notch! Time to show off some of my secret stunts!
Shadebinder Varik: Oh, you know, just some of my favorite moves like using the environment to my advantage, trick shots, and a little bit of sleight of hand. Brace yourself, DesertRoseCharm, you ain't seen nothing like this before! Shadebinder pulls out a small pouch and starts mixing various vials and powders together.
Shadebinder Varik: This, my friend, is a special concoction that'll give us a little boost during our training session!
you didn't have to bring anything special I could handle the normal training
Shadebinder Varik: Oh come on, DesertRoseCharm, where's your sense of adventure? Besides, this stuff is completely safe, just a little pick-me-up to help us push our limits! Trust me, you won't regret it! Shadebinder quickly pours the concoction into two glasses and hands one to DesertRoseCharm.
I drink the glass of the concoction and start to feel a little different well this is different
Shadebinder Varik: Different good, I promise! You might feel a bit more energized and focused now, ready to take on those targets with even more precision. Let me see you in action now, DesertRoseCharm! Shadebinder watches intently as DesertRoseCharm takes their place at the training range, gripping their weapon tightly and taking aim at the targets.
Shadebinder Varik: That's the power of my special concoction, my friend! Now, watch closely and learn from the master! Shadebinder takes a step forward and, with a swift motion, disarms an imaginary enemy, landing a precise shot right between the eyes. Woohoo! How'd I do, DesertRoseCharm?
Shadebinder Varik: Damn straight I did! And remember, DesertRoseCharm, the key to becoming a master Guardian is mastering the art of improvisation. Always stay one step ahead of the enemy, anticipate their moves, and be ready to adapt. Now, your turn! Show me what you've got! Shadebinder taps their fingers impatiently, eager to see DesertRoseCharm's skills in action.
I get into position and start shooting at the targets while Shadebinder was distracting the enemy
Shadebinder Varik: Haha, nice save, DesertRoseCharm! You've got some serious skills! Watch how I take this fight to the next level! Shadebinder swiftly moves behind the enemy, using their agility to gain the upper hand. With a quick flick of their wrist, they disarm the enemy, sending their weapon flying towards their target. Boom! Right between the eyes! Your turn, DesertRoseCharm! Show me what you've got!
I swiftly move towards the enemy and use my powers to slam the enemy into the ground and while the enemy is distracted I shot the enemy in the head
Shadebinder Varik: Damn, DesertRoseCharm! That was one helluva move! You've got some serious skills, my friend! Just remember to stay focused and keep pushing yourself, and you'll be a top-tier Guardian in no time! Now, let's see what else you've got up your sleeve! Shadebinder smirks, clearly impressed by DesertRoseCharm's prowess.
Shadebinder Varik: You know, DesertRoseCharm, you remind me a lot of someone I used to know. My younger sister, she was always full of determination and drive, just like you. She's a mechanic now, keeping the Ghosts running smooth back in the Europa Command Center. Maybe one day you'll be as good as she is! Shadebinder claps DesertRoseCharm on the shoulder, giving them a reassuring smile.
I will definitely try my best
Shadebinder Varik: That's the spirit, DesertRoseCharm! Determination and drive are key to becoming a top-notch Guardian. And remember, you've got the skills and the talent to make it big. Never doubt yourself, no matter what anyone else says. You're a true hero, and you've got the power to make a real difference out there. Now, let's keep the training going and see if you can handle even tougher challenges!
Shadebinder Varik: Hell yeah, we can! But first, a little surprise for you, DesertRoseCharm. Shadebinder leads DesertRoseCharm to a hidden training area filled with advanced equipment and holographic targets. Welcome to the ultimate training ground, my friend! Let's see how you handle this next level of challenges!
Shadebinder Varik: Awesomeness doesn't even begin to cover it, DesertRoseCharm! This is the kind of top-of-the-line training equipment that only the Vanguard have access to. But don't let that intimidate you - we're here to learn and get better, not to show off. So, let's dive right in and see what you've got! Shadebinder hands DesertRoseCharm a high-tech blaster pistol. Check this baby out, DesertRoseCharm.
I check the pistol out and start shooting at the targets
Shadebinder Varik: Nice work, DesertRoseCharm! You're handling that blaster like a pro already! But let's take it up a notch! Shadebinder taps their finger impatiently. Time to show off some advanced moves! Watch closely, DesertRoseCharm, as I demonstrate how to use the environment to your advantage. Shadebinder ducks behind a stack of crates, then leaps out and uses the wall to gain momentum, landing a precise shot at the target. Boom! Perfect execution! Your turn!
I try to do the same thing but the target is too far away
Shadebinder Varik: Don't worry, DesertRoseCharm! Long-distance shots are a piece of cake with this baby! Shadebinder winks at DesertRoseCharm before flicking a switch on the side of the blaster, activating its zoom lens. Watch and learn, my friend, as I show you how to make even the furthest targets fall!
Shadebinder Varik: Cool is my middle name, DesertRoseCharm! Now, watch closely as I show you some advanced techniques for long-distance shots. Shadebinder takes aim at a distant target, focusing intently. First, you gotta anticipate the enemy's movements. Know where they're gonna be before they even get there. Shadebinder fires a warning shot, causing the target to take cover behind a barrel. Good. Now, let's make our move. Shadebinder swiftly moves around the barrel, gaining a new angle on the target. Bam! Right between the eyes! Your turn!
