Description

The Wasp in ARC Raiders is a small flying robot drone that you’ll see almost everywhere outdoors on the battlefield.

These drones aren’t heavy or strong by themselves, but they’re fast, agile, and aggressive, especially when they spot movement or hear gunfire.

They usually patrol in small groups, and although one alone isn’t a big problem, a swarm can quickly wear you down if you’re not careful.

Wasps attack by fixing you with a tiny red laser sight, then firing a fast volley of light ammo at you.

They don’t have much armor or shields, so they go down quickly if you aim well. The weakest parts of a Wasp are its thrusters — shoot them and the drone will wobble or crash out of the sky.

When you destroy a Wasp, you’ll often get useful loot like ARC Alloy, Powercells, Light Ammo, and a Wasp Driver you can use in quests or weapon upgrades.

Quick combat tip: focus on hitting the thrusters first, take cover when they fire, and don’t let groups of Wasps surround you — that’s when they become dangerous.
