The drone in Ghost Recon Breakpoint is a valuable tool for recon, marking enemies, and even taking them down. But before you unleash its tactical potential, you need to know how to activate it. Here’s a breakdown on getting your drone operational:
Unlocking the Drone:
There are three different types of drones in Breakpoint, each with its own function and unlocking method:
-
Syncshot Drone: This tactical drone lets you tag and eliminate multiple enemies at once. To unlock it, you’ll need to invest skill points in the Syncshot Drone skill within the Stealth skill tree.
-
Recon Drone: This drone is perfect for scouting enemy positions and marking points of interest. You can unlock it for free by visiting the Infirmary during your first visit to Erewhon.
-
Field Medic Drone: This helpful drone revives fallen teammates remotely. To unlock its potential, invest skill points in the Field Medic perk within the Skill Tree.
Activating Drone in ghost recon breakpoint:
Once you’ve unlocked your desired drone, here’s how to activate it:
-
Select Your Drone: Open your weapon wheel (usually by pressing H on PC or holding D-pad on consoles). Navigate to the drone icon and select the specific drone you want to deploy (Syncshot, Recon, or Field Medic).
-
Deploy and Take Flight: Press and hold the selection button (usually L1 on PlayStation or LB on Xbox) to deploy your chosen drone. It will launch from your backpack and take flight.
-
Pilot Your Drone (Optional): While holding the selection button, you can use the control stick to maneuver the drone and utilize its functionalities (tagging enemies, reviving teammates, etc.).
-
Release to Recall: Once you’re done using your drone, simply release the selection button to bring it back to your backpack.
Bonus Tip: You can also cycle through your available drones within the weapon wheel without deploying them, allowing you to quickly switch between functionalities.
Dominate the Battlefield with Drones:
With your drone activated and operational, you’re ready to gain a tactical advantage. Use the recon drone to scout enemy positions, mark targets with the syncshot drone for a coordinated takedown, or revive fallen teammates with the field medic drone. By mastering these robotic companions, you’ll be a force to be reckoned with in the Breakpoint battlefield.
