Q1: Does the Blue Gate keycard break after a single use?
A1: Standard keys have single-use durability and dissolve upon cycling the lock mechanism. Rare reinforced variants discovered in elite raids possess up to three charges before breaking.
Q2: Can squads crack the communication tower door lock without a key?
A2: No. The terminal uses a hardened magnetic interlock immune to lockpicks, plasma torches, or breaching explosives. You must hold the specific key card in active inventory to open it.
Q3: What ARC machines spawn closest to the tower if an alarm sounds?
A3: Tripping the alarm summons two to four aerial Wasps alongside an aggressive Hunter drone patrol, which descends directly onto the upper catwalks within 40 seconds.
