** Aeon Absolvers are dedicated [[DeflectorShields shield]] disruption units. They wield both good firerate and high firing range comparable to mobile artillery -- just a dozen of them can easily drain shield domes protecting the enemy while staying at a safe distance. When it comes to actually finishing the job however, Absolvers are laughably non-threatening. At 5 damage per hit, their weaponry is above only the peashooter guns mounted on [=UEF=] and Aeon scouts from Tier 1. On their own, even the paper-armored shield generators that conventional units bring down in a couple shots are a tall order. Shield Disruptor damage against non-shields is increased to 100 for the campaign, which makes them still sub-par for the price but not entirely incapable.

** ''[[VideoGame/Splatoon3]] Side Order'' has this come up with certain color chips, particularly the Lucky and Drone chips. Sure, loading up on them can result in the player able to clear floors without attacking, as the Pearl Drone spams attacks while enemies drop items left and right... but hit a Danger floor where item drops are cut off, the Pearl Drone isn't allowed in, or [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs items drops are cut off and the Pearl Drone isn't allowed in]], and you'll have to clear the floor with what's basically a default build and whatever hacks you have. Depending on the floor and what hacks are active, this can go beyond crippling and become a run-ender.
