Changes: TIE Striker

Revision as of 23:04, 17 December 2019

The TIE Striker is an Imperial starfighter featured in the Rogue One: Scarif expansion pack of DICE's Star Wars Battlefront as a Power Up that can be summoned by Imperial soldiers, similar to the Viper Probe Droid.

Overview

When collected, a TIE Striker appears in the sky, making strafing runs on nearby Rebel soldiers, similar to the AI TIE Fighters in the offline gamemode Skirmish. It is collected through a random Power Up, not by a specifically designed coin, such as a vehicle or hero pick-up.

The TIE Striker is only available on Scarif maps.

Trivia

There is no confirmed way to destroy a TIE Striker, but targeting it with anti-vehicle weapons, such as a Smart Rocket or with Ion Shot, should theoretically destroy it.
Some mods allow players to switch the TIE Fighter model with that of the TIE Striker, effectively allowing one to play as the TIE Striker.

-When collected, a TIE Striker appears in the sky, making strafing runs on nearby Rebel targets. The way to collect it is through a random power up, and not through a specific coin like vehicles or heroes. The TIE Striker will seek out Rebels and make attack runs similar to an air strike in other shooters. So far, there is no possible way to destroy TIE Strikers but if players see one they should try to use a smart rocket against it. The TIE Striker is currently only available on Scarif maps.

+The TIE Striker is only available on [[Scarif]] maps.
-Like the other A.I. vehicle helpers that appear in Fighter Squadron mode, in the Infiltration mode, there is a way to fly the TIE Striker. All you have to do is on the PC version of Star Wars Battlefront (Insert instructions here), and then you are able to fly the TIE Striker. The TIE Striker will have the same abilities as the TIE Interceptor unlike the other A.I. controlled vehicles, but since it is normally an A.I. controlled vehicle, it has stronger armor. This currently not possible on Xbox One or PlayStation 4, it is possible on PC but only PC.
