One of these upgrades is Battle Rage—an experimental stimulant which causes the player to go into a near-invincible frenzy for a short duration.

As briefly mentioned above, Battle Rage is a Field Upgrade which players can use during matches to gain a momentary boost. Battle Rage is essentially a stimulant which, when activated, causes the player to regenerate health rapidly, develop resistance to Tactical Equipment, and gain the ability to Tactical Sprint infinitely. This ability can only be activated when Battle Rage's activation meter is full, and the buff lasts for approximately 20 seconds.

Battle Rage is a Field Upgrade that is good for both offensive situations or defensive retreats. The increased health regeneration, resistance to tactical weapons, and the ability to sprint infinitely combine perfectly to launch scathing attacks against enemies behind cover, or a group of enemies huddled together.

In other cases, if you need to make a dash out of a compromised position, simply activate Battle Rage to make a quick retreat. It should be noted that Battle Rage does not make you invincible. In other words, you will end up dying if the damage you take is more than the health you regenerate.
