Rainbow Six Siege Y8S3 New Operator – Ram
“Ram is part of an all-female unit of the South Korean Special Forces, and it’s complicated to integrate into that unit. As we researched and learned more about this unit, we all agreed that this character should look absolutely badass. Ram’s Gadget is more mechanical than high-tech. So it was a natural choice for us to make the design more gritty and grounded. Her night vision, camouflage, combat shirts, and pants are all general aesthetics that we’ve borrowed from the South Korean military.
And then, we went through a redesigning process to make this character memorable and unique. Ram is part of the Redhammer Squad, so the capacity of the destruction of this device needed to be unlimited.”
An excellent verticle operator with big destructive gadgets makes Ram one force not to be reckoned with.
Ram’s Primary Gadget – Bu-Gi Auto Breacher
Described to be the game’s biggest throwable gadget, the Bu-Gi Auto Breacher is self-propelled mobile machinery equipped with heavy-duty saws in both the front and the bottom. It’s capable of shredding floors and smashing through walls, as well asik being thrown from any position, such as around a corner and while repelling. It can smash through barricades while being thrown, though Castl’s armor panel can withstand the impact.
Once thrown, Ram has the ability to activate it remotely from anywhere on the map. The trajectory of the Bu-Gi Auto Breacher can be changed before activation, allowing it to go either in a straight path or a curve left or right, allowing it to go around corners without having to expose yourself.
Though the Bu-Gi Auto Breacher is mostly bulletproof, C4 and impact grenades will destroy it immediately. On its rear, there is a large red canister that can also be shot at to destroy the Bu-Gi Auto Breacher.
Further counter-measures include jamming from a mute jammer. The Bu-Gi Auto Breacher is a mechanical device, but during deployment, it is considered an electronic gadget, allowing it to be jammed. Solis can also detect the gadget.
Secondary Gadgets
- Flash Grenade
- Hard Breach Charge
Ram’s Primary and Secondary Weapons
Primary Weapons
- R4C – Great for aggressive pushes and quick engagement. Ram is being given additional high-powered scope to help with range engagements.
- LMG-E – The weapon is designed for players who prefer the suppressive fire approach.
Secondary Weapons
- ITA 12S shotgun – For players who want to double down on the destruction aspect of Ram’s abilities, you’ll find the TA 12S shotgun to be the perfect secondary weapon.
- MK19mm
Rainbow Six Siege Y8S3 Commendation and Player Protection Update
A new commendation system is being introduced this season, allowing the team to showcase the positive aspects of Rainbow Six Siege. At the end of each match, players can commend two teammates in three different categories. These categories include a player’s dedication to being an engaging teammate, their guidance, which is their helpfulness, and finally, their valor, which is their positivity during the match.
You’ll also be able to commend an enemy player for their worthiness as an opponent. Engaging in the commendation system will reward players with Alpha packs.
The Siege team also adds a reputation page that shows key negative reactions and behavior that can impact a player’s reputation. This page breaks down several of those behaviors.
Update: Full patch notes have been added.
