Not only does the ejected drone do a ton of damage, it also stuns enemies, launches them into the air, and applies the Bugged debuff.

Operator's primary skill is the H3-11 OCR Custom pistol.

Hold down the trigger to rapidly do a respectable amount of damage; kill shots even ricochet to a nearby enemy.

However, wait between shots and it will charge up to a powerful skillshot that will give Railgunner a run for her money.
