Functionality
Gain 3x bonus XP from eliminations
Passively reloads weapons you are not currently holding over time. At maximum level, even your active weapon reloads itself.
Reload speed improves with each Level Up.
Shadow auto-reloads your unequipped weapons over time. At max level it reloads your equipped weapon too — meaning you essentially never manually reload. Pairs perfectly with dual-weapon swap strategies: fire one, swap, fire again, repeat forever. The Gold variant adds 3x XP from eliminations — stack it in matches where you're chasing Battle Pass levels alongside wins.
