THE HARRIERS | THE BLITZTRÄGER AUF E 110 | EVENT GUIDE
Commanders!
The Alliance needs your help! The legendary Blitzträger auf E 110 has returned, and you'll need all the knowledge and battle expertise you can muster.
Luckily, we've prepared a few tips and tricks to help you get the most out of the Harriers and the Blitzträger auf E 110. Scroll down to find out how you succeed on the battlefield and maximize your earnings from The Waffenträger: Legacy.
The Harriers
Resist Firing When the Blitzträger auf E 110's Shield is Active
The Blitzträger auf E 110, manned by Ermelinda, will be protected by an almost impenetrable energy shield, so it doesn’t make sense to shoot at the vehicle while this shield is active. Moreover, the shielded vehicle is immune to both fire and damage to modules and tracks. From time to time, AI-controlled vehicles called Sentinels will spawn at certain points on the battlefield to assist Ermelinda.
Hunt for Plasma
When destroyed, Sentinels leave a clump of Plasma that you will need to pick up and deliver to the Generators, which are indestructible power structures that appear in different and changing parts of the map. These Generators power Ermelinda's protective shield.
Even if the Plasma collected cannot be used to overload a Generator, it will still come in handy by causing increased damage to the Blitzträger auf E 110. Harriers can restore their durability by collecting Plasma or participating in a successful Generator overload.
Hunt in Packs
Divided Harriers are easier to overcome. Fight in packs of three or four vehicles and continually coordinate efforts to collect Plasma and overload the Generators, thereby temporarily disabling Ermelinda's shield and revealing her position to the entire Harrier squad.
If possible, more mobile or less damaged vehicles should carry the Plasma, as they have a better chance of reaching the Generator. Once the Blitzträger auf E 110 has temporarily lost its protective shield, you have some time to cause full damage to it. Don't forget to use your unique combat abilities and remember: Plasma will drain slower if you move at speeds faster than 50 km/h.
Position Yourself Wisely
After that, the shield will be restored, and you’ll need to overload the next Generator. Each overloaded Generator provides additional time to complete the mission.
Fire When the Blitzträger auf E 110's Shield is Down
After overloading and destroying the fourth and final Generator, the shield on Ermelinda's machine will be permanently disabled. Take this opportunity to finish it off. Long-range fire on the Blitzträger auf E 110 is ineffective, so get up close to cause as much damage as possible. If the timer runs out and the Blitzträger is still operational, Ermelinda wins.
Strike When Teleporting Isn't an Option
Always keep in mind that the Blitzträger auf E 110 can teleport to a selected point on the map (with some delay). Whenever the protective shield disappears, Teleportation becomes temporarily unavailable, and after the fourth Generator is destroyed, this ability is disabled entirely.
Protect Plasma Carriers
Remember that Ermelinda will also hunt for Plasma. It restores her vehicle’s HP and reduces the cooldown of the Teleportation ability. She will absorb the Plasma carried by any destroyed allied vehicles. To prevent this, always escort the Plasma carriers on your team.
The Blitzträger auf E 110
Protect Your Sentinels
Although the Blitzträger auf E 110 is incredibly powerful and your shield reflects most of the damage you take, you cannot let your guard down. After all, the vehicle can still be destroyed. Protect your Sentinels, and don't let your opponents collect loads of Plasma to disable the Generators.
Make the Most of What You Have
Make full use of your combat abilities, constantly move around the battlefield, and take advantage of the Teleportation ability. Be next to your Sentinels at the right moment, or teleport to the other end of the battlefield to buy time and save HP. Choose the tactics that best suit the combat situation. Protect the Generators at all costs. If the Harriers destroy all four of them, the shield will disappear permanently and you will become vulnerable.
Use the EMP Arrow & EMP Burst Wisely
The EMP Arrow or EMP Burst interrupts the progress of overloading the Generator. With the EMP Arrow, it's not necessary to hit a vehicle directly. Nearby hits will do. The EMP Burst can hit targets through surrounding objects. The more Alliance vehicles hit by the EMP Burst, the faster it will recharge. The EMP Burst can even cause damage through the Foudre's ballistic dome.
Defence is Important, But Proactivity Boosts Your Chances
Time is on your side, so there's no need to overcome all of the Harriers. Actively protect the points of interest from the Harriers and destroy them one by one. If they fail to destroy you before the timer runs out, you're the victor! However, you should still try to eliminate opponents, especially those who stray far from their Squad. Each Harrier has an unlimited number of respawns, so focus on one opponent at a time and take them down to maximize their downtime.
Remember that each subsequent respawn will take more and more time. Just don't take positions in open areas when shields are down. That will make it easier for enemies to pick you off. If you are low on HP and there are only a few seconds left until the end of the battle, simply disappear from your foes’ view.
