WARDOGS

Our WARDOGS Spotter guide helps you become a powerful reconnaissance player for your team and squad. Spotting is a vital mechanic in WARDOGS, allowing you to tag players in real-time. Tagging a player reveals their position on the map.

How to spot and tag an enemy player in WARDOGS

First, to start spotting, you’ll need one of the few Recon equipment made for the task. These are:

Once you have one of the above equipped, you can start spotting for your team. Aim your spotting tool by right-clicking, this will scope you in. Next, hover over a target you can see through the scope.

If you’ve correctly found a target, the spotting tool begins a tracking sequence. Once the rectangle around the reticule is full, the enemy player or vehicle becomes spotted. This tag reveals the player or vehicle on the map and the range between you. Personally, you’ll also see a colored tag above their head, making it easier for you to notice them.

Opening the map with “M” shows the real-time position and the range of the tagged enemy. As a result, you can zero in a Sniper Rifle or Mortars for deadly precision. Giving this information to your team is exactly why spotting in WARDOGS is so powerful.

How much does Spotting in WARDOGS pay?

Earning cash is easy with Spotting. It requires very little effort, fairly safe and the cash gains extend past simply spotting a target.

Utilizing a spotting tool can pay out cash through the following:

  1. Spotting a player or vehicle – minimum $100 per spot
  2. Teammates killing an active spotted player – $800
  3. Teammates killing a previously spotted player – $400
  4. A very small amount of cash for refreshing a target once – $25~

You can both help out your team and earn some great profit through the spotting tools. As a result, we highly recommend using spotting equipment no matter how you play WARDOGS.
