Players using the Nomad Specialist will periodically get the opportunity to \u201cSend out a hound to patrol an area, or call it in to follow you around as a guard dog,\u201d and it\u2019s pretty damn good at killing things. The Attack Dog can be difficult to hit and has a great deal of health, making it difficult to take down. However, there are a number ways of killing it if you know what you\u2019re doing, as popular YouTuber \u2018TheXclusiveAce\u2019 recently explained. First, you can use a launcher as your secondary weapon and kill the Attack Dog in one shot, but only if you hit it directly. Miss one shot, and you\u2019re probably going to die! Another effective counter can be the SG12 shotgun\u2019s operator mod, which is a strobe light. The light can stun the dog for a few seconds on one occasion, but it only works once and there\u2019s a good chance you won\u2019t have the weapon in your loadout. Other Specialist abilities and equipment, like the War Machine, Ajax\u2019s Ballistic Shield, Trip Mines, Razor Wire and more are strong against the dog, but require you to have them available when the canine is running towards you. In fact, if you or your team have any Razor Wire on the map, you can simply stand inside it and the dog won\u2019t attack you at all, making it one of the easiest counters. TheXclusiveAce does demonstrate a way of avoiding the dog without any special weapons or attachments though \u2013 simply jumping to the side as it attacks and shooting it in the back as it recovers! You can check out the full video below.
