Ariin felt a tinge of pain as his shield shattered and crystals buried alongside poor Paladin's body, damn near part of his body was marked with the things. "Critical systems are intact but we have a problem. I've got to much weight on the joints. Moving them might drive crystals deeper and break something critical." He spoke to the entire team on an open comm's channel. He sighed and turned on maneuvering thrusters, working to gain a targeting angle without being able to move the joints he pushed Pompey on target. Doing locking the arm in that position. "Firing on Sniper in A3!" He yelled into comms, firing a burst of twin shots that should slam home easily. Of course stuck like this volley fire couldn't be used to fire on targets the kick would be to strong.

He moved his shield arm slowly trying to dislodge the crystals from around him canon. "Gonna try remove the crystals so I can get back into the fight. Mind watching my back?" He asked anyone and everyone over the comms, he'd been the target for awhile now he hoped someone else wouldn't mind distracting the enemy from shooting him again while he focused on trying to keep himself in the fight.
