How to Obtain the Beam Drone in Risk of Rain Returns

Hey there! If you’re playing Risk of Rain Returns and wondering how to get your hands on that awesome Beam Drone, you’re in the right place. This drone isn’t just cool—it’s a game-changer. But, it’s not something you just stumble upon. You need three Laser Drones to make it happen.

Where to Find Laser Drones?

So, where do you find these Laser Drones? Well, they start appearing from the second zone, but if you’re brave enough to tackle the Monsoon difficulty, you might just spot them earlier. Keep your eyes peeled, though; they’re not always easy to find.

How Do Laser Drones Work?

You’ll know it’s the real deal because it’ll have a bright green arrow over it and cost more than the other drones. These little beasts pack a punch with their laser attacks, giving you an extra edge in battle.

Combining Laser Drones

Your mission? Get three of these Laser Drones at the same time. If one gets busted, fix it up or find a new one. Then, find a Drone Combination Station (look for a blue thingy with yellow arms).

Special Perk for Engineers

Playing as an Engineer? Combine those drones, and you’ll unlock the Amplifier achievement and a cool new ability called Laser Turret.

Shortcut to a Beam Drone

Not into the whole scavenger hunt? There’s a shortcut. In the final zone, Contact Light, keep an eye out for a Beam Drone. It’s rare, but if you find it, be ready to shell out some gold to fix it up. The odds are slim (about 25%).
