This should help out with general defender survivability, and can even be used to tank damage from Capitão’s Asphyxiating Bolts. Much like Doc’s Stim Shots, a charge from the Kona Station can also revive a DBNO player, but they’ll have to crawl to the station themselves and manually interact with it. If you’re an attacking player you will see a cone of blue light to signal that there’s a healing shot available. Attackers can also use the Kona Station, so be wary of leaving them far away from the site. Kona Stations can be shot out, tasered, or temporarily disabled by Thatcher’s EMPs, so they’ll need to be tucked away from view – they appear to require line of sight in order to deliver each healing shot so placement is key. After firing a stim, each Kona Station goes on cooldown, which lasts for 35 seconds. Each dart boosts the player’s HP by 30 and you can overheal by the same amount. If multiple low health players are in the station’s area of effect then it will target the lowest health player. Each Kona Station has a range of roughly two metres, and operates by firing a healing dart at the first operator to enter its area of effect. She carries three Kona Stations, which can be placed on floors, walls, and solid surfaces much like Jäger’s ADS. Thunderbirdīorn in the Nakoda Territories of Saskatchewan, Thunderbird – or Mina Sky, if you want to use her civilian name – is the second defender with a healing-based gadget. So, let’s kick off with the new defender.
Y6S2 also introduces a haul of changes that were teased during the Year 6 reveal earlier this year, including tweaks to the health and armour system, reduced downtime, and reworks to bulletproof cams, Mira, and Maestro. Importantly, the Favela rework isn’t designed to cater to competitive play – much like the House rework that arrived last year, this overhaul is aimed at the casual playerbase, making the map more balanced, but not necessarily viable for pro play. Despite coming from the Nakoda territories in Canada, Thunderbird arrives in Rainbow Six Siege alongside a rework to the Brazilian map, Favela. Her ability is best described as a mix of Jäger’s ADS and Doc’s Stim Shot – she can place down three Kona Stations, which fire healing darts at any player who wanders into their area of effect. Thunderbird is the name of the new operator joining the defensive lineup.
Operation North Star continues Rainbow Six Siege’s newfound focus on quality of life changes, promising several reworks to core gameplay mechanics, while still adding a new operator and reworking a fan-favourite map.
