Tempest

The Tempest is a Rig class in RIGS: Mechanized Combat League.

Overview
The Tempest is the lightest Rig chassis available to pilots, with a small figure comparable to the Hunter. It appears to have the slowest ground movement speed, and the chassis itself is not very durable. However, the Tempest makes up for these shortcomings with the ability to perform a vertical takeoff and glide through the air. Utilizing a pair of rotors on its back, the Tempest can go upwards fast by holding the jump button. This will make it hover in the air, also providing it tactical advantage by giving a large field of view. While in the air, the Tempest can glide by using the left analog stick, or drop by tapping the jump button.
