P.A.W.S. are fast, agile robotic dogs that can quickly close distances and deal significant melee damage. They often appear in packs or alongside human infantry. Their primary weakness is their exposed core, usually located on their back or side. Focus fire on this weak point. Explosives like grenades or the XM-53 rocket launcher are highly effective. The 'Remote Hijack' Cyber Core can also turn them against other enemies, making them a valuable asset.
