Description
- Research Notes:
An advanced prototype based on our earlier Skeleton armor design, this variant makes use of our latest developments in the field of optical camouflage. By studying the unusual phasing behavior exhibited by the Hyperwave beacon, we've come to understand how this device is capable of existing outside of our visible plane. With this "phasing" behavior in mind, we've implemented several experimental metamaterials into the weave and structe of this suit's outermost layers. As a result, the "Ghost" armor provides near-invisibility to the wearer, allowing for enhanced evasion and infiltration capabilities in the field.
- Engineering Notes:
By integrating a stealth field based on the phase-shifts observed in the hyperwave beacon, this suit makes it extremely difficult for the wearer to be detected in the field. It should be noted, the stealth system is only effective when used by a soldier in cover.

Notes
- Unit can become invisible up to four times per mission.
- Activating the stealth does not cost any actions nor end the turn. It's possible to use stealth multiple times in one turn, if you have the ability to act after attacking.
- Invisibility lasts for 1 turn or until the unit fires. This could be the same turn or after firing from overwatch.
- When your turn starts your invisibility automatically ends, alerting enemies to your presence. This won't trigger Overwatch attacks, but you cannot continuously stay invisible for multiple turns even if you immediately activate Ghost again on the next turn.
- Enemies behave as if you don't exist while you are invisible. You won't trigger alien 'wake-up' actions when moving into their line of sight, and they won't try to attack you. (You may still end up hurt from explosions, etc.)
- Attacking from stealth adds +100% critical chance. Against some enemies, this still may not guarantee a critical hit.
- Despite not taking an action, activating Ghost Mode counts as manipulating an item, and thus cannot be used if you have already triggered an ability prohibiting item use, such as Run and Gun.
- If a soldier is suppressed then activating Ghost Mode will make the suppression stop.
- Wearing Chitin Plating with Ghost armor will make it strong as Titan armor (+10 Health) plus the benefits of the added +20 Defense and no critical damage from melee attacks.
