Notes

  • Gettle has an increased chance to drop the legendary Lyuda sniper rifle.
  • Gettle is armored and will always spawn with a shield. Shots from an incendiary weapon to his head do not incur a damage penalty.
  • Gettle counts as an Engineer (for ex for the objective of the mission Home Movies).

Trivia

  • Like many Hyperion Loaders, Gettle spawns from the air, but is unique in that he can be attacked before landing, albeit only after The Good, The Bad, and the Mordecai has been completed.
