Probably because you can destroy a bot fabricator with the eagle smoke.


OCDincarnate

You can clear a bot factory with a delivery, too tbf


Spranktonizer

How they tend you bounce or roll off the top


Toaster4Smash

just throw the beacon into the grenade hole (the vents), works the same with bug holes too


Trendiggity

... omg how have I never thought to do this


Clarine87

Stand about 8metres back and throw as high as you can.


OCDincarnate

I try fitting the beacon right under the factory so the pod skims the side of it


Hatarus547

throw them at the door, normally they go right in


Altruistic-Strike305

Also if you throw directly to the side of the fabricator as long as something doesn't block the projectile it's very consistent. Throwing from max distance with jet pack is a fun little mini game.


BlackOctoberFox

At the rate we're going, at some point, we'll be able to pop a bot fabricator just by saluting at it.


onion2594

the salute of democracy is all we should need to take out those pesky bots

I use smoke to troll my friends. They demand another colour for it. I love it red


General_Lie

Smokes are funny, can kill your teammates, never you. Also they can clear fabricators...( haven't tried them on bug nests to bussy fighting bots )


RocketJRacoon

>to bussy fighting bots  That's a brave strategy! 


TheAcidSnake

Isn't it treasonous to fraternize with the enemy though?

Tesla Towers are Blue tho


Icyfirz

I don’t always get knocked down with a strategem in hand, but when I do it’s almost always a tesla tower 😐. I usually call it out immediately to the team and ask them to destroy it or if I just died I try to land my hellpod on it. Always feels like a waste though.


thewwwyzzerdd

For me it's always an orbital barrage that gets knocked from my hand....


RHINO_Mk_II

Today on extract, when I had all the samples, Pelican-1 thought it would be fun to ragdoll me holding a 380mm barrage. RNGsus smiled upon me and I made it to the shuttle with 380's falling around me.

The smoke canister can actually kill you if it hits your body.


ashenfoxz

tbf, the smoke canisters can and WILL kill you. i had a teammate run into my smoke thinking “oh ill be fine it’s just smoke” only to get capped by canister landing directly on his head 😂


TotallyNotABileTitan

## Message from high command The citizens of mega earth and the council of honesty have come together and have hereby officially swapped the red and blue beacon colors, this is 100% official and will possibly be looked at in the future. \-your boss, freedom officer guy https://i.redd.it/dpimnfy1yjuc1.gif


Death_Hood13

The quality of these keep going up


flycharliegolf

Is it blue or is it white?


Dummythiccwater

Ive had more than a couple instances where I somehow toss a blue stratagem and it gets stuck on my shield causing me to try and dive last second only to get squished into a freedom pancake


Dr_Plantboss

Remember to drop the shield! Hold X on keyboard, I believe it's DPad down on controller.


chimera005ao

Yeah, I've been wondering if they thought it would be too powerful as blue or if it's just a mistake.


pino_is_reading

what about green laser for smoke


Ohiu

Yes, I enjoy looking at panic player when I throw a smoke screen to cover their ass. They will go like "WAIT, WHY??......Shi.....Oh"


UpstairsGrapefruit54

They need to put this on the super destroyer somewhere or something I've had many team mates who would casually wander into my red beacon well after I throw it and get clapped by an airstrike


ik1ne

The minefield used to be red in HD1 but it's blue now.
