Cover Fire

At 1st level, when you make an attack with a weapon with the automatic property, you may spend twice as many shots to lay down cover fire on every creature in a 5 ft. radius of the target. Instead of dealing damage, every targeted creature must make a Dexterity saving throw with a DC equal to 10 + your attack roll bonus with the weapon. On a failure, they automatically take the weapon's damage the first time they move before the beginning of your next turn. If the attack would have disadvantage, the DC is equal to 5 + your attack roll bonus with the weapon.

Extra Attack

At 2nd level, when you take the Attack action, you may make an additional attack.

Run and Gun

At 3rd level, when you use an action doing anything other than making an attack, you may make a ranged weapon attack with disadvantage or throw a grenade as a bonus action on the same turn.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Always Vigilant

At 4th level, you have seen all forms of combat and survived it all. You gain a +1 bonus to your AC, saving throws, attack rolls, and damage rolls.
