Injection Rig

Injection Rigs are Cabal infiltration devices deployed in Public Events to gain information by recon and espionage.

Overview
Injection Rigs appear in certain areas where the Injection Rig Public Event appears where the tool is sent down from a Cabal Warship who stays to oversee its success. Once the Rig lands, a high ranking Psion will teleport down with a crew of Red Legion Cabal to guard them and the rig.

Gameplay
During the event, the Injection Rig itself won't actively participate until an Infiltrator Psion is killed. When this happens, the Rig will generate an indestructible barrier, then reveal and activate its propulsion systems, causing anyone inside the barrier to begin to burn to death. Due to the dense Cabal armor, this rarely affects them, while it is devastating to any Guardian or Fallen caught inside who doesn't have an overshield or source of healing like a healing rift.

However, this leaves the Injection rig vulnerable as in order to prevent overheating, it exposes its vents while scorching, which can be destroyed. If all three pairs of vents are destroyed, the heroic event activates and the Infiltrator Valus will also call down a bombardment on all foes in the area. Once the Valus is slain, the Cabal their Warship will flee. However, if the vents were destroyed, the Rig malfunctions on its way back to the Warship, exploding mid-flight and causing the Cabal to gain nothing from this event.
