Decon Team

"'YellowSuits' don 100% Strain-resistant combat gear and are welcome sight to combat teams. Their UVX lamps burn away contamination and raises morale. - Cryovat description."

Purchasable from the Cryovat in mission site 4 ("Decon"), the Decon Team Division is one of the most important divisions in Strain Tactics. In addition to being completely immune to infection and boosting the morale of nearby units, Decon Team function as mobile decontamination centers. Much like the Medical Team, Decon Team units possess a a cone of light that removes infection from any friendly units that stand in it. Effective use of a Decon Team unit will save the player from having to use Decon Pills or trying to get infected squad-mates on board the Helibase.

The usefulness of a Decon Team unit's decontamination ability cannot be overstated. The ability not only allows for increased freedom when arranging a squad's inventory, it also provides the ability to disinfect friendly NPCs. The Decon Team can save mission-critical VIPs from becoming new Strain, and can be used to disinfect the gunners of UN2 APCs.

Perhaps because of this utility, Decon Team units do not require reward points to unlock - they are available for the player to purchase with credits the moment mission site 4 is unlocked.

Encouraging
Decon teams have a sunny disposition and give emotional support to those nearby.

Any friendly units within close proximity to a Decon Team member are given a moral boost, supporting the build-up of their positive traits and retarding the build-up of negative traits.

Panicky
Easily startled, the unit discharges their weapon embarrassingly.

Once activated, the Panicky trait causes the unit to fire their weapon in random directions - including toward friendly NPCs or nearby squad-mates.
