@Amerika sorry for that

Wiki says this.

Receive an audio warning whenever a nearby enemy air support is a dinger to you and 20% reduced damage from air support abilities.

However, the molotov isn’t an air support ability.

But who knows…it’ll be interesting if someone could check.

No, Guardian Angel only works on abilities, that come from the sky. Lazer, Airstrike, and Artys thingy.

@Jostabeere how does this work on the laser like does it take longer to kill?

you can hear when the laser really close you that its hitting you and it has small dmg and really fast attack speed, it just lowers the dmg soo yes
but direct laser is still one shot

You simply get less damage from the lazer.
Basically you can survive the same time near the center than without the augment, since it is basically a permanent grenade explosion.

so basically your just gonna hold in more of your guts when your on the edge of an airstrike?

@sgtCrookyGrin makes as much sense as a lot of the things going on in the game.

At least it isn’t like Lock-oh which is clearly stating it’ll affects mines when Proxy doesn’t have it available oj her loadouts.

There’s also Arty having Failsafe in two of his Dreiss loadouts, which reduces damage from your own explosives when he should be nowhere near his own artillery strikes, especially when one loadout also has unshakable which would apply almost the same effect on him from both his own and the likelier enemy explosives.

I still don’t see why it couldn’t be rephrased as decreasing damage from Fire Support abilities and also decrease the damage from Stoker’s molly, then again there are a lot of Mercs who can get rid of it’s fire.

you know what would be hilarious @Redcap ? If they buffed failsafe to do 60% resistance (I’m assuming it works with your own air strikes and etc), had both unshakable and guardian angel on a Skybro card, you just walk in unharmed by your airstrike XD

@sgtCrookyGrin I know skyhammer’s marker if one stands right over it does 100 damage, what I dont know is the exact number each bomb does, guessing each bomb does over 100 and he has failsafe available to him too, I’m just curious of it actually works with failsafe alone as I think the bombs dropped are so close to each other that one would die even with failsafe.
With all those applied, one really has to wonder though, that’d be hilarious.
