Rex "Power" Colt (and all Mark IV soldiers) are able to perform takedowns to silently dispatch enemies. As they level up, they learn new skills, some of which include more advanced takedowns.
Regular Takedown[]
Rex uses his Dragon Blade to stab the enemy in their chest or neck. This only works on regular (non-heavy) enemies. This takedown is unlocked at Level 1 and is affected by the Level 11 Skill Highwayman.
Shuriken Takedown[]
After performing another close-range takedown, pressing the fire weapon button will make Rex through a shuriken at the targeted enemy. Line of sight is required. This takedown will end the chain of takedowns and should only be used if the target is the last enemy in proximity, or is too far away to be chained into. This only works on regular (non-heavy) enemies. This takedown is unlocked at Level 1 and is NOT affected by the Level 11 Skill Highwayman.
Chained Takedown[]
After performing a Regular Takedown and pressing the move forward button, Rex will dash to next enemy performing another Regular Takedown. You cannot chain into or out of a heavy enemy. This takedown is unlocked at Level 1 and is affected by the Level 11 Skill Highwayman.
Heavy Takedown[]
Rex uses his Dragon Blade to stab the enemy in their chest or neck in the same way as a Regular Takedown, but on a heavy enemy. This takedown is unlocked at Level 15 and is affected by the Level 11 Skill Highwayman. It cannot be chained into any other takedown types.
Grenade Takedown[]
Rex stabs the enemy like normal, but also pulls the pin on an enemy's grenade and pushes them back if you press the throw consumable button after a takedown. This takedown will end the chain of takedowns. This only works on regular (non-heavy) enemies. This takedown is unlocked at Level 21 and is affected by the Level 11 Skill Highwayman.
Gunslinger Takedown[]
Rex stabs the enemy like normal, but also steals an enemies pistol if the aim down sight button is pressed after a takedown. You can shot as many enemies are nearby to you and you have line of sight on them. This takedown will end the chain of takedowns. This only works on regular (non-heavy) enemies. This takedown is unlocked at Level 27 and is affected by the Level 11 Skill Highwayman.
