How to play Sojourn: Tips
Sojourn is potentially a top-tier DPS character that hits hard and fast, as long as you know how to play as her.
One of the best tips you can follow is to just keep shooting. The weapon has a fantastic reload speed and some great damage from both the normal bullets and the energy beams. Her secondary also loses energy if you don’t hit people for a while so be sure to find the chaos and get right in there.
Also, use your Disruptor Shot wisely. It works as an AoE so find groups of enemies and be sure to aim carefully due to the slower cooldown time. This works in the same way with the Power Slide, you never know when you’ll need to get in or out quickly.
Sojourn’s skins

Most of the available skins will be brought using credits. The Commando skin can only be made available if you buy the Battle Pass.
