===Drone Tethering=== [[Image:DroneTethered.jpg|right|150px|thumb|A Tau Commander Tethers his Drone.]] The Drones have a notorious tendency to wander off in Last Stand, mostly because they try to keep up with you. Unfortunately, because the Drone also destroys cover when it moves around (the Tau commander doesn't give a shit, since he can't benefit anyway, but other heroes might), you may want to find a way to keep the drone in one spot. Thankfully, there is a way to do this, and it's known as ''Drone Tethering''. Sadly, it's also only possible in a few spots in each arena. If you pull it off, and position it right, the Drone will spawn and be unable to move from its one spot. It is completely impervious to melee enemies in this spot, and only enemies that can shoot (or throw grenades) can hurt it in any way. For the Shield Drone, this makes the tether spot a premium camping position, especially when backed with either a Mekboy with a Trophy Rack or Hive Tyrant with Psychic Scream and/or Poison Cysts. For the Heavy Gun Drone, this essentially makes it a turret. The Marker Drone will continue to do its time-honored tactic of marking things, completely unaffected by the nearby cover. Note that the rocks can be destroyed by explosive damage, advancing monstrous creatures or walkers, and players who teleport/jump in. Known Tether Spots are: '''Bloodied Colosseum:''' * The large pile of rocks in the southern corner, specifically the fallen pillar. This is probably the best-known tether spot. * The large pile of rocks in the northern corner is also usable but takes more practice. Between the top gate's right side and the rocks only found it cause using that spot to make melee guys stop I cloned the force commander and he spawned in it couldn't move or attack but use his ground slam to kill so I though to try putting a drone there and it works though it didn't shoot till they had got out into the middle of the map. * (Insert Additional Tether Spots Found Here) '''Anvil of Khorne:''' * Behind the northern spawn gate there is a ruin with a small yard where a player can move to. Not the big area behind the towers (which can be reached by standing on the spawn gates and moving out of the map while they rise).
