Airdrop Strategy Tips

Timing is Everything

Airdrops are announced 30 seconds before they land. Use this time to position yourself strategically or set up an ambush for enemies who might be rushing to claim it.

Consider the risk vs. reward when going for airdrops. Sometimes it's better to let enemies claim an airdrop and then engage them afterward when they might be vulnerable.

Prioritization

Not all airdrops are created equal. Legendary airdrops like the Quantum Core or Data Core can dramatically change the course of a match and should be prioritized over common items.

Consider your team's current needs when deciding which airdrops to pursue. If your team is low on health, a Repair Kit might be more valuable than an offensive upgrade.

Team Coordination

Coordinate with your team when going for airdrops. Have one player secure the airdrop while others provide cover or watch for approaching enemies.

Distribute airdrops based on mecha types and roles. For example, Heavy Artillery is often more effective on assault-type mechas, while Shield Generators benefit tank-type mechas.

Baiting Strategies

Airdrops can be used as bait to lure enemies into ambushes. Position your team around an airdrop and wait for enemies to approach before engaging.

If you're at a disadvantage, consider using a Stealth Module to sneak in and steal an airdrop that enemies are guarding or fighting over.
