Evolve's medic class hunter detailed: weapons, skills & more revealed

Evolve developer Turtle Rock Studios has discussed the shooter's medic class as part of its recent GameInformer coverage. Say hello to Val.

It follows Turtle Rock's run-down of Evolve's Trapper and Support classes, and another article on the game's Assault class. We've also got a massive Evolve info blow-out through the link.

Now, GameInformer reports that Medic class Val comes packing a Medgun capable of healing fellow hunters in a similar fashion to the Medic's skill in Team Fortress 2. Her offensive weapon is an Anti-Material Rifle which exposes an alien's weak spot. Once tagged, any damage dealt by Val's comrades will score a damage boost. It's all about team-work, see?

Like all classes, Val comes with a tranquilizer weapon that both slows wildlife and highlights it for other hunters to see, and she's also capable of using a skill caled Healing Burst that instantly patches up any hunter within its effect radius.

What do you make of Val so far? MP1st has a trio of images through the link, but we won't embed them here as they're water-marked.
