Landing

( Inside a rented transport ship ) 

Max began to armour up as the group approached the previous Paratus clan capital planet. 

He was in a small transport ship alongside Asiva, Anna and Sebastian as he mentally prepared to descend into war. 

Max's ship was in the near back of the fleet, where the threat of getting shot down upon landing was the lowest, as despite him not personally approving of such strategy, it's what the other tier 4 warriors arranged for him as despite his own preferences he was now an important figure and his death could greatly demoralise the army. 

His presence was enough to keep the army motivated and hence he needed to be protected at all costs. 

As he suited up, he deliberated about his choice of weapon, but after a lot of consideration he decided to go for the staff rather than the sword as the initial half of the battle would need him to use his AOE abilities rather than his PVP abilities.
