Often found guarding heavy machines, the Comet serves as a brutal deterrent against Raiders who attempt flanking tactics. When it acquires a target it accelerates with alarming speed, and triggers its self-destruct once it's near enough to guarantee damage.

However, even when exposed, hitting such a fast-moving weak spot requires a particularly skilled trigger finger. Experienced Raiders treat the Comet as a priority target, dropping it before engaging whatever it's protecting. The alternative is fighting a Bastion while a live bomb circles for an opening. Shani suspects ARC deployed them specifically in response to Raider flanking tactics - another sign that the machines are learning
