The Caltrop is a tactical slot consumable available to all non-MAX infantry classes. It is unlocked through purchase with Merit from Merit Vendor in Sanctuary.
When deployed, the caltrop deploys a holographic tank trap that prevents the passage of hostile vehicles, without hindering the movement of allied vehicles in any way. The faction-colored hardlight tank trap cannot be damaged by any means, and the only way to damage the caltrop is to hit the small black generator located in the center of the deployable.
The use of a Gate Shield Diffuser will allow hostile vehicles to pass through tank traps as though they were not there for the duration of the effect.
To deploy this item, equip it and use the Fire key ( by default) when the visible indicator is green. The item must have direct line-of-sight to the sky above to be placed, referred to in-game as "outdoors."
