Anomaly by name and nature, the young and feisty Autobot is a strange mix of both scientist and soldier; to his allies, he’s a benefactor who can remove even the most virulent effects from enemy weapons… But to any enemies on the battlefield, he is walking fallout, leaving anyone who crosses him infected and quarantined. And as he is always spoiling for a good fight, you’ll always find someone on the battlefield affected by his gifts, in one way or another.[1]
“
As lethal as he is resourceful - a complete Anomaly!
As a soldier-hybrid Anomaly is effective at both attacking and reparing. His attacks center on debuffing his enemies with system interference and toxic viruses. But he can also clean up these effects from his allies keeping his team fighting fit.

Hazardous materials response vehicle
Alternative mode description
Anomaly was relieved to find that humanity also had a toxic waste problem - it meant he had a ready-made disguise in the form of a hazardous materials response vehicle. Perhaps it wasn't wise to equip it with a grenade launcher, although Anomaly isn't known for following the rule book.

Lambda Pulse Blaster
A long-range charge-up weapon which deals plasma damage to shield. The higher the charge the larger the output.
Nuclear Attraction
The Nuclear Attraction S-tech sees Anomaly use nuclear force to pull himself towards the target and disorientate them. But it is less reliable if the target is in vehicle mode.
Pulls Anomaly towards the target and disorients them. At level 1 it has a 50% miss chance if the target is in vehicle mode
Use Nuclear Attraction to finish off a weakened enemy attempting to escape. If the damage doesn't destroy them they will still be disorientated, making them a vulnerable target
Atomic Axe
A charge-up melee weapon which deals electrical damage to the sparks and shields of all targets hit by the swing. The higher the charge the larger the output
Web-Route
The Web-Route S-tech uses the axe to create a subatomic link between Anomaly and a target, which routes a portion of Anomaly's incoming damage to them instead.
Connects to the hit target and redirects damage to them at 40% redirection
In a closely-fought duel, activate Web-Route to cause Anomaly's attacker to damage themselves instead.
Positron Shotgun
A short-range ammo weapon which repairs allies. It auto-reloads when ammo is depleted
Particle Exchanger
The Particle Exchanger S-tech triggers an instant swap of positrons between Anomaly and his allies for mutual benefit, each ally gaining increased damage-dealing, and Anomaly gaining increased damage-dealing for each ally affected.
(Insert s-tech in-game description)
Before a battle charge, fire Particle Exchanger into a closely-bunched group of allies to increase the team's damage-dealing
