ARC INTEL

• Optical Sensor (glowing red eye)

Highest priority! Destroy it before it completes its scan to prevent reinforcements. One shot to the red eye is an instant kill. Use any precise weapon.

• Central Body (chassis)

Focus fire on the central body. Avoid shooting the wings, as it will make its movement erratic and harder to hit. Shotguns are effective up close.

• Exposed Rear Thrusters

Its front is heavily armored. Use a sniper rifle to penetrate the armor or flank it to shoot the exposed thrusters on its back for a quick takedown.

• Entire body (no armor)

Small and fast, they often attack in packs. Use automatic weapons to deal with groups. A single headshot will destroy them instantly.

• Anywhere (fragile)
• Side Canister

Keep your distance. Shoot the side canister to detonate them strategically, using their explosion to damage other nearby enemies. Do not shoot the main body.

• Exposed Core (when it opens to attack)

Dodge its rolling attack, then shoot the exposed core when it opens to use its flamethrower. It is highly vulnerable during this animation.

• Red Optical Sensor
• Ammunition Capsule (on the barrel)

Use cover and "peek-shoot". A precise shot on its red optical sensor is a one-hit kill. Alternatively, destroying the ammunition capsule also works.

• Glowing Rear Core (back)
• Unarmored Leg Joints

EMP grenades are very effective. Get behind it to target the glowing red core on its back. Destroying a leg joint will cause it to fall, exposing the core.

• Central "Eye" Core (when open)
• Small red button on top

Invulnerable when closed. Wait for its central eye to open during a scan, then focus fire on it. A precise shot on the small red button on top is an instant kill.

• Optical Sensors (red eye)
• Leg Joints

Use shotguns or high-impact weapons to stagger its charge. Sliding and maintaining distance is key to avoid its powerful melee attacks. Aim for the red eye.

• Entire body (extremely fragile)

Priority target. If it marks you with its laser, all incoming enemy fire becomes perfectly accurate. Destroy it on sight with any weapon.

• Glowing Knees (yellow)
• Rear Fuel Canister (back)

Destroying its glowing knee caps will make it kneel, providing a clear shot at the large fuel canister on its back for critical damage. Stay mobile to avoid mortars.

• Leg Joints (knees)
• Rear Canisters (back)

Its frontal shield is indestructible. Focus fire on the leg joints to make it kneel, then attack the two exposed canisters on its back for massive damage.

• FIRE (Critical vulnerability)
• Red spots on body

Extremely vulnerable to fire. Use Blaze Grenades or flamethrowers to set it on fire, which paralyzes it completely. Then, unload on the red spots.

• Thrusters (engines)
• Rocket Pods

Use a Hornet Driver grenade or a grapple to pull it to the ground. Once grounded, it is very vulnerable. Otherwise, focus fire on its thrusters.

• Leg Armor Plates
• Exposed Head Core
• Exposed Leg Joints

Focus fire on one leg's armor plates until they break, exposing the joint. Destroying the joint stuns the Queen, revealing its head core for critical damage.

• Central Core
• Leg Joints

Keep extreme distance to avoid its devastating attacks. Use long-range heavy weapons to target its central core and leg joints. Team coordination is essential.

• Side loot containers

Get to it quickly after it lands. You have a limited time to loot the containers on its sides before it takes off again.
