When should I use a swapper? - Pink and White I M a Little Print Textile

I've been playing Heat Signature for a few hours now, and I have yet to find a good use for the swapper items in the game. Under what scenarios are swappers useful? They seem like a neat idea, but ultimately don't seem necessary.



Best Answer

The simplest scenario when a swapper is useful is when there are two guards remaining in a group. You can swap with one and immediately kill the other with a quiet weapon. The guard you swapped with will simply stand around confused, and you can return and kill him at your leisure. Essentially, you are using it to jump close to the guard to ensure that they are in melee range before they have a chance to raise the alarm. You can multiply the effect with a Slipstream. If you activate a slipstream then immediately swap with one guard in a group, you can easily kill several before any of them can attack you or raise the alarm.
