Assignments are part of the endgame content in Rainbow 6 Extraction. They task you with completing missions on the highest difficulty level with some additional modifiers that you won't encounter anywhere else in the game. This guide offers some tips on how to complete the Kick the Anthill Assignment.

In Boot the Anthill, React has contained the Archaeans inside 2 small areas within each sub-zone. Inside those areas are more than Archaeans that you lot'd usually face in an entire sub-zone and Abberent Nests that produce Archaeans at a much faster charge per unit than normal. Your job is to alienation these areas and clear them of Archaeans. In that location are two areas to clear in each sub-zone. Nonetheless, yous'll need to destroy the Nests pretty speedily, or you'll be overrun within seconds.

Bring explosives

The easiest way to destroy the Nests in the areas where the Archaeans have been contained is with explosives such as grenades. While mines will help prevent whatever Archaeans from getting as well close to you at beginning, it's better to bring as many grenades every bit possible so y'all can throw them close to Nests and destroy them without needing to turn your dorsum on enemies. Also, equipping the explosives belt will let you to get into the Incursion with more grenades, and you lot get a marker for each objective anyway, so there'due south no need to bring a drone.

When you get-go enter a sub-zone, you'll exist given an objective mark for both areas where the Archaeans have been contained. The doorways are covered by React barricades that the enemies will get through pretty rapidly after they're alerted. Nosotros found it easier to breach and clear when we surveyed the walls surrounding each area. If you find a wooden one, you tin meet enemies through information technology and even shoot some of the Nests before the Archaeans have a clue what'southward happening. If any member of your squad has a React drone that can run across enemies through walls, this is the time to use it. Lion's gadget will also help you empathize where the biggest chunk of Nests is.

Work as a squad

There are two ways you lot can go about immigration an area. The kickoff is to separate up and set on it from three sides. This will thin the Archaean numbers that accuse yous and work through and destroy the Nests faster. However, if i teammate ends up fighting more than their share of Archaeans, things tin can get bad apace.

The second way to handle an area is to focus on one doorway or archway and fight together. Each of you will end up protecting the other because you'll huddle together during the Archaean'southward surge towards you. In this formation, you can throw grenades at Nests and burn at enemies without needing to worry about hit a teammate, which can happen if you're working towards each other from opposite sides.

With two areas to breach and articulate in each sub-zone, this Assignment tin exist ruthless. Subsequent sub-zones have a higher difficulty level, meaning more enemies, more than elites, and more complications to compete with. We lost two Operators in the get-go sub-zone, and one of our team decided to carry on into the 2d. With so many Archaeans in the mix, the histrion ran out of ammo and explosives faster than ever and was forced to extract before becoming overrun by the hordes. Don't push on but considering you want to if you lot're down a squad member or are running low on ammo. Extract with the experience you've gained, recoup, and effort once again fresh.
