On first entering the tutorial, Skyhammer will be presented with a cutscene of the Dirty Bomb wasteland. This cutscene is completed by zooming into the player's head. This then allows the person playing the tutorial, which we'll call the player, to take control of Skyhammer.
This is the part of the tutorial where the player will learn the basics of Mercenary control. Each character that the player uses is called a Mercenary, or Merc for short.
This is the main part of the tutorial. As a new player, you'll most likely be playing with Skyhammer for a while until you can afford another Merc and/or feel comfortable enough to experiment with the Free Rotation mercs. For the latest Mercs on free Rotation, please visit the Home Page, where 'Free Rotation' will be on the right.
After completing the mini Assault course, you will come across this room. To complete this room, you need to fix the generator. The Generator is the yellow box over on the right, by the wall. To fix the generator, Hold down F while crouching.
After you have completed Stage 1 of training with Skyhammer, you will learn how to use Medic abilities. After repairing the Generator in the last part of the Skyhammer tutorial, you will come onto learning Aura's abilities. The image above is part of a cut scene that the players sees after switching to Aura. This only happens in the Tutorial.
After switching back to Skyhammer, the player will find themselves in this room, with a balcony in front of them.
