Tactical Information

  • Like the Eagle Smoke Strike, this stratagem can be used to block line of sight. This allows you to reposition or tactically retreat.
    • The Orbital Smoke Strike is perfect for covering a Helldiver who is interacting with a Terminal, especially when calling-in extraction while being attacked.
    • With stationary-reloading support weapons, reloading while inside the smoke can prevent enemies from interrupting.
  • When called the strike will be perpendicular from the direction you were facing when thrown.
