Hellstorm

The Ablestar Technologies Hellstorm Tactical Drone or the is a Heavy weapon introduced in the 17.2.0 update. It can be obtained from the CBRN Trader Van for a limited time.
==Appearance==
It takes the appearance of a quad-copter drone.
It features a dark brown/grey body with four grey propellers with red blades, a light blue sensor, and a small auto cannon underneath.
When equipped, the drone will hover on the right side of the player's arm, and the player will point his/her arm to the direction of the crosshair. The drone will also create a light blue energy shield around the player.
The drone will fire a rapid burst of 5 shots when the attack button is pressed.
==Strategy==
It deals moderate damage per shot and has a high mobility and a decent fire rate however, this is offset by its low ammo capacity. 
===Tips===
* Try to aim at the ground near enemies.
* Go for the weakened players for better ammunition conserving and quicker kill registering.
* Be conservative of your ammo as you only have a limited amount of shots per magazine.
* Try to be somewhat accurate while using this weapon and try to have all shots hit its target.
* Due to its accuracy, it should be only used at short-medium range as a spray and pray-type weapon.
* Avoid being too close to walls, the projectiles will hit them and decreases effectiveness.
* Use the mobility and the Energy Shield as an advantage and try to outmaneuver enemies at close range while outputting massive damage.
* It should be noted that the weapon's shots are hitscan, however the splash damage for the shots are smaller than most Heavy weapons.
 
===Counters===
*Pick off the user at long range.
*Area damage and shotguns make quick work of users.
*Strafe while jumping to minimize the damage from the weapon.
*Attack its users while they are vulnerable. Like while they are reloading or standing still.
*Try to flank around the user and then quickly pull out a melee weapon to quickly eliminate the user.
