"Do it the smart way. The hard way gets you killed." -Blueblood
Blueblood is a human and a playable agent in XCOM: Chimera Squad.
Blueblood is able to put out very high damage with his Pistol and Lancer Pistol, able to fire with both actions each round. Later abilities further improve his ability to attack multiple targets at once. His health is low, so he will need to be protected from counterattacks.

Tactical Advice
- The Lancer Pistol has the same damage as the Pistol with normal ammo. If you upgrade the pistol to Enhanced or Mastercraft, the Lancer Pistol scales accordingly. But if you equip Blueblood with ammo that give buffs (e.g., higher damage, or burning status), the Lancer Pistol will not pick up that buff.
- If you spec Blueblood with the Cascade Lance skill, you can shoot through a squadmate to amplify the Phase Lance's damage down the line. This will, of course, result in damage to your squadmate.
- Consider equipping Blueblood's pistol with Impact Frame and picking Ever Vigilant ability. This will turn him into a surprisingly strong melee hit'n'run brawler. Since Ever Vigilant ability triggers after the LAST AP was spent on moving or Subdue, Blueblood can: make the shot as the first action, hit nearby enemy with the empowered Subdue (which in this case deals 4-5 damage) and in the end go to the Overwatch — all in the single turn.
- Free Reload Training ability makes Auto-Reload weapon mod redundant to Blueblood, making a room for other useful mods beside from "mandatory" Expanded Magazine (Impact Frame or Laser Sight).
- Endless Brevity Epic Pistol is better choice for Blueblood than Artful Fathom since Fan Fire is affected by Desperado ability as well, so, theoretically, fully upgraded Blueblood can make up to 10 shots (three from Fan Fire and seven from Faceoff after the free reload) in the single turn.
