Player Notes[]
Although the Operative is seemingly rarely used (both by CPU/AI players and real players), they are both useful and vital in so many small ways that often, their usefulness is overlooked. Always make sure you have one skillful Operative (the best ones are the ones that primarily choose to be Operatives) on your team who knows that it is important to spot mines, hack turrets and spot enemies via Homing Beacon or Comms Hack.
