To spawn a helicopter in Ghost Recon, particularly in titles like Ghost Recon Wildlands, you primarily utilize the vehicle drop-off support option, typically initiated by pressing the R1 button, after fully upgrading this specific ability.
This strategic support option allows players to call for various vehicles directly to their location, providing quick access to transportation for missions or exploration.
Steps to Acquire a Helicopter Drop-off
Acquiring a helicopter isn't an initial option; it requires progression within the game's support systems. Follow these steps:
- Initiate Vehicle Drop-off: While playing, press the R1 button on your PlayStation controller (or the equivalent button on other platforms, often tied to calling in rebel support or similar squad abilities). This action prompts a vehicle drop-off request.
- Access Vehicle Options: Initially, this service might only provide ground vehicles such as standard cars or armored vehicles.
- Upgrade the Ability: To unlock helicopters, you must max out your vehicle drop-off capability. This means investing skill points or resources into the relevant rebel support or squad ability path until it reaches its highest level.
- Select and Receive Helicopter: Once fully upgraded, helicopters will become an available choice among your vehicle drop-off options, allowing you to call one in whenever needed.
Maximizing Your Vehicle Drop-off Capability
Unlocking the helicopter option requires dedicated effort within the game's progression system:
- Earn Skill Points: Engage in missions, complete side activities, and explore the vast open world to accumulate skill points.
- Invest in Support Skills: Navigate to your in-game skill tree or progression menu. Look for categories specifically related to "Rebel Support," "Vehicle Drop-off," or "Squad Abilities."
- Fully Upgrade the Tree: Continuously invest your earned skill points into this particular ability until it reaches its maximum level. The final tier of this upgrade typically grants access to helicopters.
By strategically upgrading this support option, you transform a basic ground vehicle delivery service into a powerful tool for air superiority and rapid deployment, making helicopters a readily available asset for any tactical situation.
