Rainbow Six Siege – Operation Dread Factor Operator and Gadget Guide
Rainbow Six Siege’s Operation Dread Factor introduces a new Operator, Fenrir. As a defender, Fenrir uses his F-NATT Dread Mines to deploy fear-inducing gas, affecting his enemies’ vision and lowering their life expectancy. The new season is packed with exciting updates, including an extensive rework of the Consulate map, new customizable shooting range lanes, and more.
Fenrir’s Loadout
Fenrir’s submachine gun, MP7, and shotgun, SASG-12, provide players with weapon options for close or medium-range combat. His secondary weapon, the Bailiff 410 revolver, is a powerful close-quarters weapon that can destroy walls and barricades. Fenrir can place either a bulletproof camera or barbed wire, providing even more versatility in his loadout.
Fenrir’s F-NATT Dread Mines
Fenrir’s F-NATT Dread Mines are a game-changer for defenders. The mine has three states: deactivated, activated, and triggered. The mine is bulletproof when deactivated, making it difficult for attackers to remove, but it will not release the fear gas. When activated, the mine will release the fear-inducing gas when an attacker enters its range. A triggered mine releases the gas continuously while an attacker is within range.
Fenrir strategically deploys his mines and uses activation codes to activate or deactivate them. He can use up to three activation codes at once, covering different areas of the map and responding to enemy pushes from multiple directions.
Defender Synergies and Attacker Counters
Fenrir’s mines are even more powerful when used in conjunction with teammates. For example, defenders can place Melusi’s Banshee devices or position a Clash around one of Fenrir’s mines to add a slowing effect to attackers caught in the fear gas.
Attackers can remove the mine by either using explosives or EMPs to deal with any deactivated mines. Alternatively, they can use Twitch’s Shock Drone or Zero’s Argus cam laser to eliminate an activated mine or use IQ to spot the mines.

Key Takeaway

Conclusion
Operation Dread Factor brings exciting new content to Rainbow Six Siege, including new operators, maps, and gadgets. Fenrir’s F-NATT Dread Mines add a new dimension to the game, and proper team coordination is essential to maximize their effectiveness.
