ARC Surveyor

▹Field assessment

An unarmed rolling sphere that periodically stops to fire a blue communication laser skyward — presumably to ARC in orbit — which is exactly when its shell opens and it's vulnerable. Threatened, it bolts faster than a sprinting raider (occasionally right off a ledge). The documented play is to stun it with a Hornet Driver or Showstopper so it can't flee or close its shell, then hit it with heavy explosives; heavy ammo strips its lootable armor panels best. Its Surveyor Vault drop upgrades the Medical Lab. Groups of Surveyors headline the Close Scrutiny map condition alongside Vaporizers.

◎ Target weak points

• ◎core

  The armored shell retracts and exposes the vulnerable core while it transmits its sky-beam; the core is protected the rest of the time.

Multipliers unquantified — locations verified, damage scaling is not documented.

▸Observed behavior

• ▸Rams into attackers as a last-resort defense, dealing moderate damage — otherwise it flees rather than fights
