White Tusk

The White Tusk are an elite division of the Black Tusk. They primarily consist of Black Tusk units and the assimilated remains of the Last Man Battalion that survived during the eight months of inactivity. They are currently exclusive to the Legendary difficulty versions of District Union Arena, Capitol Building and Roosevelt Island.

Compared to the normal Black Tusk operatives, the so called "White Tusk" are more lethal, more advanced on their techs and much more experienced. They are similar to the elite Last Man Battalion in Tom Clancy's The Division.

Events in Warlords of New York
During the invasion of D.C., the Black Tusk has suffered massive casualties and the loss of most of their commanding officers and operatives. In order to regain the numbers they lost to The Division, they headed to New York to scout and possibly recruit anyone that would be willing to join them. There, they encountered the splintered and leaderless LMB, who were drastically struck down by The Division. The LMB, fueled by a desire to gain vengeance for what The Division did to them, were recruited by the Black Tusk, leaving only memories of a once powerful faction. Now, armed with new tech and weaponry and a new lease on power, the LMB remnants, reborn as the White Tusk, fight alongside their saviors against The Division, not only to finish what they originally started, but to finally end The Division and avenge the death of their leader, Charles Bliss.

After the death of rogue Division agent Aaron Keener, they took over the former factions' strongholds for unknown purposes. Until a group of Division agents stormed the sites and cleared the threats.

Abilities
In contrast to the Black Tusk soldiers, the White Tusk soldiers display more ruthlessness, coordination, aggression experience and better use of their technology. In addition to being tougher and dealing more damage. Some noteworthy changes to their skills and behavior include:


 * Assault and Rusher - Are more accurate and aggressive.
 * Controller - Their UGVs are much more powerful and durable. Will attempt to use the UGV's grenade launcher more frequently, unless they are threatened.
 * Drone Operator - Sends more durable and faster explosive drones at a relentless pace, and no longer needs to remotely pilot them when active (but will prioritize staying in cover to send more drones unless directly threatened).
 * Medic - Will attempt to revive teammates much more aggressively with either his drone, or himself if it is destroyed.
 * Sniper - Will hide at farther locations in the engagement zone. Aims and shoots faster.
 * Support - Support station is tougher and heals much more frequently and efficiently.
 * Thrower - Their grenades are more powerful, accurate and travel slightly faster
 * Tank - Armor is much harder to break. Their backpack Restorer Hive has been replaced with the Black Tusk's version of a Stinger Hive, which will seek out nearby targets and inflict bleeding status.
 * Warhound Marksmen - Can aim much more quickly.
 * Warhound Minigun - Will no longer stand still to do a 360 minigun sweep, will instead focus on relentlessly running around agents to do strafing runs.

Trivia

 * The Hunters from The Summit have been listed as members due to Floor 100 being affiliated to them, while still having White Tusk soldiers present in it. This idea is supported by the fact that the White Tusk are former LMB, which, during Legendary Missions and Resistance mode, were seen working directly with the Hunters.
