Repair Tool & Sabotage Gadget:

  1. The repair tool can be used from inside transport helicopters or by hanging out the window of a vehicle. Aim until you find the "sweet spot" for repairs.
  2. Sabotage costs $30,000 and can be planted on vehicles, Battle Pickup weapons, ammo/health/defib pickups, vaults, and other interactive objects.
  3. To use Sabotage on vehicles, aim until the dynamite icon appears, then hold the trigger until armed. This will cause the vehicle to explode if an enemy attempts to drive it.
  4. Using Sabotage on objective vehicles in Hotwire mode is recommended for higher chances of enemy use. Staying on the enemy's side of the map increases this likelihood.
  5. Anti-Vehicle Coins can also be earned using the Mechanic's M320/M79 grenade launcher, frag and incendiary grenades, small arms fire (on unarmoured vehicles), RPG/SMAW/Stinger pickups, and vehicle guns.
  6. Repairing your vehicle while playing Hotwire as Mechanic can earn extra points.

FMG9 Weapon Details:

  • Performance: Similar to the P90 but with a faster rate of fire (950 RPM) and a longer drop-off, maintaining a four-hit kill out to 25 meters for excellent DPS.
  • Drawbacks: Smaller magazine capacity and slow reload times.
  • Post-Patch Changes (September 2015 Robbery update): Significantly less accurate with doubled ADS and hipfire spread, increased maximum ADS spread, and higher crouch/prone spread per shot (SIPS). Horizontal right recoil when standing was raised by 25%.
  • Buffs: Reductions to maximum hipfire spread and horizontal right recoil when prone.
  • Default Attachments: Micro T1 sight and a green laser.
  • Trivia: Developed by Magpul, it's built around a full-auto Glock G18 machine-pistol and borrows from earlier designs to create a foldable automatic weapon. The airsoft replica is known as the FPG (Folding Pocket-Gun). It previously appeared in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and the movie Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance.

Scorpion Weapon Details:

  • Stats: Ammo: 9x19mm, Capacity: 30+1, Fire-rate: 1,150 RPM, Reload: 2.20 secs.
  • Unlock: $36,000 for both factions. Added with the Robbery DLC but not required to access.
  • Performance: Increased fire-rate from BF4's CZ3A1 (1,000 RPM) to 1,150 RPM.
  • Damage Profile: Reduced damage similar to G18C and 93R machine-pistols, with a max damage of 24 (five-hit kill) out to 13 meters, dropping to a nine-hit kill at 24 meters.
  • Recoil: High vertical recoil, but manageable by steering against it.
  • Default Attachments: Comes without any attachments.
