Repair Drone

 was an deployable ability available to Engineers of the Nanite Systems Operatives. It was unlocked and upgraded using Campaign Standing on any character participating in the Distant Shores campaign.

When deployed, a repair drone hovered above the right shoulder of the operative, following their exact movements. While the drone remained active, it would automatically repair all allied mechanical units—vehicles, MAXes, and deployables—within 10 meters for the listed amount each second.

The drone had a theoretically infinite duration, although was vulnerable to gunfire and would disappear if the operative entered a vehicle at any point or died. The drone had a 45 second cooldown that begins immediately upon deployment.

To deploy this item, equip it and press the Fire hotkey ( by default).
