Shock Trackers are small, ball-like DeeBees that use their body as a weapon, closing in on the player and detonating an electricity field when in close proximity. They are non-lethal variants of the Tracker, and can sometimes drop a Shock Grenade when killed. They are silver-colored in contrast to the blue hues of a normal Shocker to differentiate.
Strategy[]
They are used to flank or harass the enemy and are often used in conjunction with Shepherds to flush out encamped forces from hard to reach places.
They are released from either a Tracker tunnel in strategically placed buildings or from a Condor.[1] Unlike other DeeBees, Shock Trackers are too small for a Leech Flock to hijack.
Kicking a Shock Tracker away will cause it to become inactive for a brief moment, though kicking it twice will destroy it. Inactive Shock Trackers are easier to destroy, and won't detonate an electricity field when destroyed.
Appearances[]
- Gears of War 4 (First appearance)
- Gears 5
Behind the Scenes[]
- Shock Trackers are the DeeBee equivalent of a Locust Ticker.
- They are considered as one of the most common and disposable of the DeeBees.
