Random Drugs

[Initiate 1,306]

I've been experiencing this weird thing - not sure what's going on. Several times now I've randomly had DA and RKs activate, and they've actually healed or protected me. The weird thing? They activate no cool-down and they don't take away from my existing supplies. No, it's not a Dictator's OD. They just randomly pop up, separately, but sometimes I've had the RK used just when I'm about to be killed, or maybe the DA activates just before I get shot more than halfway down my health, which means I would have died. One example, I was driving in some sprites and stopped to quick-scope. I got the kill, then a DA popped up. Half a second later, I was shot by a railgun with destabilizers, and the shot would have killed me if it weren't for that DA...

I have experienced the same thing recently.

 

One time I was healing a teammate with DA on, and all in the sudden my SB was activated too.  I thought the teammate in front of me got a support drone (Engineer/ Supplier), but I was the only one with SB activated.

Well, at least it's not just me....

I am sure that your teammate had the Engineer Drone or the Supplier Drone. 

 

I have both but I use the Supplier Drone more often since I like to stick to my allies. I make sure to run over the box with the Engineer Drone when most of my allies are alive so they can get it. I've had it before where random supplies activated and that's nice.

 

 

Just so you know, that repair kit pickup with the Engineer Drone can potentially be bad for some allies because they may be in a firefight and have to use their own at a strategic time to win but then it randomly happens and screws them over which would make them die. When I'm about to go over a repair kit, I look around the map at my teammates' HP levels to see if they would need it or not and if they were in enemy territory. 

 

Had a few times where someone cursed in shock because they kept getting their supplies activated when I'm near them with the Supplier Drone. I really am glad that some players (mainly Legends) recognise that I have the drone so they let me take it when they are near it.

It must be Supplier or Mechanic drones that your teammates used. That's the only explanation.

I checked, it didn't look like other people on my team were getting it... I thought of the drone. I could be wrong, though. It was just odd. I thought, "Dictator? No. Drone? No one else got it. Luck? Possibly. Skill? WHAT AM I THINKING?!?!?! The Tanki gods? Most likely..." ;)

Look above. Again, I'm probably wrong, but I'm reasonably sure because I was right next to a teammate that didn't get it...

The drones have a limited range. Perhaps you were in range, but your teammate was just out?

Happened a lot to me, but I thought that I accidentally used the smart supply while swiping to get an aim (on Mobile). But when I began monitoring my supplies, I could see no change. Many times it was a drone, that I couldn't see who had (idk why), since everyone on my team got the supply. Many times it was just me...

Hmm, maybe. Interesting, it was probably the drone.

[Merovingian 656]

Not probably, certainly. Drones were designed for that purpose consequently it will happens on battle. Thanks the buyers.

:D Did you see me write no one else got it?

I always thought it was Dictator's OD. I came to that conclusion when I was in the tunnel by myself on Industrial Zone when it happened. Also under a bridge on Bridges Map. I was trying to hide waiting for RK to finish with cooldown.

I should not dismiss your sweet dream. So let's reformulate. You find something weird, you discovered something incredible, it might be the start of something big... you are my hero.  

​Silly of me to think that the obvious was too obvious. Bravo.

Indeed, sire. You forget one thing. If I am in a battlefield and I randomly get supplies, you may rest assured that the first thing I think of is a drone. As I wrote, I checked this. The results? It seemed no one else got the drug. So, after it happening a few times, I decide to post it here. You must concede the point; if no one else gets it, it is fishy. I checked, it seemed to me that no one did. So, on to the forum to see if anyone else got this thing. I did say that it was probably the drone, but it's suspicious if, I repeat, no one else got it.

Before clicking in this page, I thought you had problem with having drugs in real life....

Well, I do in that I don't think people should have drugs. But no, lol, that's off topic.
