How to Use Recon Drone

Scan Areas From a Distance

Recon Drone is best to use to scout the area and mark enemies. Place it as high as it can get so enemies will have a harder time spotting it.

Stick it With C4

You can create a makeshift Bomb Drone if you stick a C4 to a Recon Drone. Move it then to a group of enemies to take them all out at once!

How to Counter Recon Drone

Activate DDOS

Activating DDOS will temporarily disable the Recon Drone, preventing it from marking your team and moving. Once it stops moving, shoot it down with any weapon to destroy it.

Use PILA Launcher

PILA can also track down a Recon Drone. You can equip it to your loadout and use it to destroy the drone. It is also a great alternative if your saving your Primary Weapon's ammo.
