Anchor

The anchor is always at hand and can be used to reach higher areas, or can be used to lach on the akrid or stun foes. On most multi-player matches it is an invaulable tool. It can also be used to grab T-ENG or [?] boxes. If you fall off a ledge it will (sometimes) grapple on automatically and allows you to rappel.

Tips & Trivia[]

Although very small, it can hold a large amount of weight (you and your power armor, namely), and never breaks.
It also pierces walls.
It is basically a grappling hook.
You can use the anchor to latch on to some Akrid weak points and fire a full magazine, or until the target is dead (rapid fire only)
It can also be used as a medium range melee attack. However, it only deals light damage to enemies and provides light knockback.
You can earn GJ Awawrds for attacking with the anchor.

It's very effective to kill Dongo Akrid with the Anchor and Gun technique. With gum grenades, even the Chryatis Akrid is easier to take down with Anchor and Grenade.
