===== Wisp ===== | ====== Wisp ====== |
| [{{ wisp.png|Wisp program icon}}] |
| |
This article is a stub. | **Wisp** is a [[utility|utility program]] which [[:TAGs]] all visible [[:guards:]] for a cost of 3 [[:PWR]], with no cooldown. Wisp can be bought from some [[:mainframe devices:Server Terminals]] for 300 [[:credits]]. |
| |
| Wisp targets all [[:guards:]] in the [[:facility]] which the agency currently has [[:vision]] on, including [[:guards:#civilians]] and [[:guards:#drones]], even if they are [[:KO|knocked-out]] or [[:rebooting]]. Wisp does not target guards on unrevealed tiles, guards in the "fog of war" (even if a "ghost" of the guard is visible), guards who are already TAGged, or [[:drones]] that are currently controlled by the agency. If there are no valid targets, then Wisp cannot be used, and instead the message //"all visible guards have TAGs"// is shown. |
| |
| Guards TAGged by Wisp remain TAGged even if Wisp is sold during the mission. |
| |
| ===== Strategy ===== |
| |
| Wisp is considered to be one of the best programs in the game. TAGging is [[:TAG#Strategy|very powerful]], especially if you can TAG every guard in the facility. |
| |
| Wisp TAGs all visible guards who are not already TAGged, so to use it efficiently you will want to see as many guards as possible when you use it. While [[:strategy:exploration|exploring]] the facility, you can see more guards at the same time if you split your agents up to explore in separate directions, and an agent can [[:peeking|peek]] through doors or around corners to see guards in more than one area. However, even if you can only see 2 or 3 guards at once, using Wisp to TAG them is still usually advisable. |
| |
| It is usually not necessary to have both Wisp and a [[:weapons:TAG Pistol]]; if you have a choice between them, it will depend on your [[:loadout]] and strategy. Wisp can be the better option when you have enough [[:PWR]] to use it frequently, when you aren't short of [[:Incognita]] program slots, or when you want to save your [[:attacks]] for something else. |
