Detailed Tactical Info
Small flying ARC that are relatively unarmored. They will patrol most areas outside grouped up with other Wasps and occasionally following a Hornet, waiting for raiders. Upon spotting one, they arm their main guns before firing a barrage of light ammo into the target.
Combat Advisory
When dealing with a Wasp, the front armor may look tempting, however most know to instead fire at any of the four rotors. When a rotor has been taken down, it will fly more erratically, so it's usually better to wait until it successfully stabilizes itself and prepares to attack again before firing unless you know you have extremely good aim. They are surprisingly accurate from most ranges, so don't try to outrun it, instead get behind sufficient cover and get your bearings before countering.
