Alpha-2 Tank skill:

Base skill
Bashes the target with your shield, dealing damage and applying the shaken condition. If the target is already suffering from the shaken condition, stun the target instead.[1]

The primary intent of it is how you engage an encounter. It's got a bit of a mobility- it's not like a super far charge like that carries you across the screen or anything,... but it's basically a way to engage with the enemy, get some damage out and also grab some threat. It applies a pretty good chunk of threat in a small area in front of you, so it's really good at grabbing snap threat on some high-priority target.[2]Tradd Thompson

It looks like that this has a variable distance that's traveled, so essentially if I have a target that's directly in front of me right now it's not predicated on having an actual target but it is a templated attack; and if that target is immediately in front of me, then the distance traveled will be shorter.[3]Steven Sharif

It's again a pretty short range mobility skill, but yeah you can also just use it point-blank on something and it's not going to make you overshoot the target and then you have to reposition, because that can be kind of annoying with some of those skill types.[4]Tradd Thompson
