RED Mk IV Spectre  |
|
A medium speed, yet light Armored Operator, IQ's unique gadget is the RED Mk IV "Spectre", which can locate and mark REACT equipment including ammo, ability, or health resupply packs (as well as mission objectives like Triangulation consoles, Catalyst emitters, and Disruption Devices) within approximately 20 meters. This proves to be invaluable following firefights with enemies and traversal through more difficult sub-zones.
The Spectre initially only detects REACT Equipment through solid objects. At Operator level 2, it Spores, Sower Mines, Arch Spines, and Nutrient Nodes. It is further upgraded at Operator level 7 where it detects Lurkers, regardless of cloaking ability, and Smashers. Finally at Operator level 10, the Spectre's detection range is increased and it is capable of detecting Apexes and Proteans.
- The Electronics Detector is a wrist mounted display. It is deactivated by default, and can be manually activated or deactivated.
- When activated, IQ flips open the Electronics Detector, and REACT Equipment within range is detected (even through walls) when looked through the Electronics Detector's translucent display. She can ping objects and enemies to confirm what they are in this state.
- When using the Electronics Detector, IQ can only use her secondary weapon (P12)
