High Tech
Jacqui Briggs’ first variation, High Tech, has her relying on her… well, high tech. With this variation, she get’s a plasma blast that can be quickly fired or charged for more damage. On top of that, she can use the Guantlet Spark ability to significantly increase the damage of her punch attacks. This variation is best used up close and personal so that players can take full advantage of the buff she receives. If you’re worried about getting too close to powerful opponents, Jacqui Briggs has a handy shield ability that will keep you out of harm’s way (provided you got the proper timing).

Shotgun
The Shotgun variation swaps out Jacqui’s ranged plasma attack for a powerful shotgun blast delivered from her gauntlets.

Perfect for keeping opponents stunned, and off their feet while you dish out the combos.

Full Auto
Full Auto is Jacqui Briggs’ answer to full on, ranged warfare. This variation provides her the means to keep enemies away whether they approach dead on, or try the jumping bean approach. Rockets that can fire both high and low, machine guns that fire straight ahead, her trusty Tech Shield, and her deadly punches make this particular variation her most well-rounded one. Full Auto is perfect for when you’ll be using Jacqui Briggs against a series of varied opponents (such as in a Tower), or if you just want to give this fighter a test run.

X-Ray (L2+R2 with full meter)
Jacqui Briggs’ X-Ray attack is absolutely perfect during juggling combos. Beginning with an uppercut, this attacks runs opponents through the gamut of just how many punches Jacqui can throw. The fact that this is one of the few X-Rays that uses solely brute force, really makes watching all the more painful.
