Summary

On Helldive Automaton missions, the Spear remotely destroys fabricators, gunships, tanks, and turrets, making base clearing exceptionally easy. He presents a stealthy long-range build using the Spear, Senator pistol, rail cannon, and fire grenades while approaching heavily defended bases. Unreliable lock-ons and Devastator fire repeatedly leave him trapped, burning, or nearly killed; extraction becomes available, but completion is unconfirmed.

Insight

Weapon enthusiasm again collides with inconsistent mechanics and chaotic close-range pressure.
