Hacked Yojimbo: Zero Point Defense - 600 OM (Area Shield Proficiency, TEC 4, Ranged Proficiency)
It is said that truly skilled swordsmen can cut an arrow in flight, or slice the wings from a fly. Hiro uses this move to nullify projectiles or sustained attacks against him. Hiro must spend at least 3 seconds pacing his breathing and tensing his muscles, while his goggles cast a virtual “denial zone” around his front, covering 180 degrees. For the next thirty seconds, whenever a projectile such as an arrow, bullet, or missile enters this denial zone, the goggles will highlight it with a virtual marker and Hiro will slice it into uselessness with his sword. He can only target one item per “volley” (i.e. he can deflect one bullet but not a burst of five). This mode is not very draining, although if he activates the denial zone repeatedly it can be.
]Additionally, if he spends twice the focus time (6 seconds), Hiro can coat his sword in his signature vector shield and give it the ability to bisect sustained attacks, such as energy beams, fire blasts, plasma waves, etc. This mode only lasts ten seconds and will run out after that time regardless of whether or not he uses it. This also uses up one of his Vector Shield personal activations (see Vector Faraday move for details).
