How To Get Uncommon Aether Tool Plans?
One of the Objectives in Story Mission: Saboteur
In Story Mission: Saboteur, you must acquire and exfil with the Uncommon Aether Tool Plans, which requires shooting down a reinforcement helicopter. Here are some tips to help you locate it.
Aether Extractor Contract is a Rocket-Like Icon
Open the map and look for the icon that looks like a rocket and place a pin. This Contract is challenging because it requires you to fight many Mercenaries. Therefore, look for this in the White Zone.
How To Shoot Down A Reinforcement Helicopter
First, Upgrade Your Weapon Using Pack-A-Punch
In order to take down the reinforcement helicopter, it's recommended to either Pack-a-Punch your weapon to at least Level 2 or work together with friends. Just having Pack-a-Punch Level 1 will make it hard to take the helicopter down if you're solo.
Choose The Right Weapon
You'll want a weapon with a large magazine, an LMG for example. You can use a launcher if you have one but it is not recommended. If you hit the helicopter with it, you can eliminate the reinforcements but at the same time the helicopter will fly away. We recommend upgrading one automatic weapon to focus on the helicopter.
Prepare Enough Ammo And Support Items
Before taking on the combat, ensure you have sufficient Ammunition, Tactical and Lethal Items, and armor plates to endure the attacks from the Mercenaries and the Reinforcement Helicopter. Remember that you also might have to eliminate zombies, Energy Mines will be useful against them.
Dealing With Mercenaries Until Helicopter Arrives
The Reinforcement Helicopter will support the Mercenaries while you complete the Contract. Keep an eye out for the helicopter's arrival when dealing with the Mercenaries, and quickly grab your most powerful weapon to take it down.
