“STOP COMPLAINING, IT’S JUST ELECTRICITY”

  • TWITCH

Please keep in mind that operators are a work in progress, and information is still subject to change by launch.


PROFILE


Born in the historic town of Nancy, Pichon grew up in a family that valued education, particularly math and science. Early participation in sponsored computer programming competitions led to her joining the army cadets at sixteen.

Emmanuelle Pichon is an expert technologist with a penchant for using gadgetry to aid her squad. She enters operations with a small drone capable of delivering disabling electric shocks to hostile forces and their traps.

GAMEPLAY


If you hear enemy traps, Twitch is your operator. She can deploy a shock-drone, equipped with a short range taser that can disable any planted electronics, or even deal light electric damage to enemies. Since you are equipped with both an observation and shock-drone, make sure to use each one in the right situation: observation to scout around and locate the traps then shock-drone to go in and disable them.

In very tense enemy sieges, you should also use the shock-drone to distract the enemies so your teammates can move in and eliminate the threat. But make sure to always disable any Jamming Devices near you, as the shock-drone is vulnerable to them. Also, enemies will be quick to shoot at you so remember that the shock-drone is bigger than a standard observation drone, it is slower and can't jump: make sure you can move the drone to cover, in case you come under enemy fire.

UNIQUE GADGET


The Shock Drone can scout locations and deliver an electric shock via probes that can incapacitate electrical devices and be used as a distraction toward hostiles. The chassis holds multiple shots.

The first official deployment of the RSD Model 1 was during a hostage situation in Paris. A mentally unstable suspect barricaded himself in a convenience store along with several hostages. GIGN was deployed and sought to resolve the situation without violence. Pichon was on site and was able to maneuver the drone close enough to the suspect to deliver a slight shock, forcing the suspect to drop his weapon, where he was incapacitated by an undercover operative. The incident was resolved with zero fatalities.
