 * In narrow corridors, utilize the high wall run attack damage to quickly pick off priority targets.

Trivia

 * Obex is Latin for "Barrier". Which makes sense, as the gloves part of the set creates such electric shields around the pair.
 * If the Melee button is pressed repeatedly as the Obex is being used in a long succession, generates two spheres of energy around that can last about 5 seconds.
 * This process also produces flames in each hand.
 * One on the right hand will stay permanent for the rest of the mission after prolonged succession of melee. (Possible bug.)
 * The design of the Obex appears to have a similar theme of the Corpus, as the appearance shows a boxy figure though with similar characteristics of the Kogake but is capable of dealing Electrical Damage on its jump attacks.
 * Unlike the Kogake, however, when used by Vauban, the weapon does not clip the mesh on his feet. Instead, it fits the boxy figure flawlessly.
