Tacticals are 1 of the main elements in the game. These affect how you play the game and also what you look like. Tacticals are you main ability like cloak or grapple. They help aid your play style and are incredibly powerful. There are many different tacticals and each have their own use.
Grappling Hook
This is not necessarily the first one you get but the usually the first one you will use. The grapple has 2 charges in it, so you can use two grapples consecutively before you have to charge it. You can grapple onto most things including titans and by doing this you can get to higher places or sling-shot across the map. By grappling onto a titan you can rodeo them so this is great for titans.
Cloaking
This allows you to go partially invisible so that you don't' appear on the radar and you cant be obviously seen. By partially what I mean is that it covers your whole body but you can still seen the outline of the player. So if the enemy isn't paying attention, they wont see you. This is good for using shotguns and assassination.
Sonar Grenade
Although it sound like a grenade this is actually a tactical ability. It acts like a grenade but when you throw it down it reveals all the enemies in the area. This also 1 shots so if you cane be accurate with it its also a very good weapon. This has quite a long cooldown so make sure you use it when you need it.
Adrenaline Stim
This is one of the best tacticals in my opinion. It boosts your movement speed and allows you got go extra fast for a few seconds. You can do his to catch up to a titan, get around fast or dodge bullets form the enemy. This also has a decently long cool down so use it to dodge bullets, get out of combat or when you need it.
A-Wall
This allows you to place an energy wall in front of you which absorbs damage for you. This is good if you want to snipe or want to reload for a second. The bad thing about this is that its stationary and in a quite mobile game and takes a second to place down which in the fight can mean a difference.
Phase Shift
This is one of the more widely used tacticals as its very useful. It has two charges and allows you to phase out of the battle for a second allowing you to get away. You can sneak around enemies or use both of them at once in a bad situation. Also if you phase into someone you automatically assassinate them.
Hologram
Hologram is one of the less used ones. It sends a holo pilot of you out in front of you which can bait other pilots in or make enemies think your somewhere you're not. The cooldown on this is alright so you can use it quite a lot. I personally would prefer to use something else to aid movement but I can see a use in this.
Grappling Hook
