You and your teammates in Rainbow Six Extraction will want to use every tool available to you to assault the Archæan in the infected areas you infiltrate. Not only do you have your guns and abilities at the ready, but each operator can take with them a handful of React Tech gear or explosives to provide you an additional advantage. This guide will cover all React Tech and how they each work in Rainbow Six Extraction.

Each operator can only take two React Tech with them on any mission. One can be an explosive and the other a piece of gear.

These are all React Tech you can select from before a mission.

You can carry three of them.Glue Grenade: Slow down Archæans within 10 meters. You can carry three of them.Impact Grenade: A throwable grenade that detonates on impact in a seven-meter raidus. You can carry four of them.Nitro Cell: Plant or throw this device at a location to damage a large area, remotely detonating it. You can carry two of them.Paralysis Grenade: Throwable grenade that detonates on impact, stunning Archæans for five seconds.

You can swap between your REACT Laser and your REACT UV Light.Recon Drone: A recon drone that you drive around to scan an area to learn the location of objectives, Archæans, or supply cases. The drone recharges after 30 seconds, or you can grab another at REACT Tech Supply Cases.Recon Vapor Device: Use this device to scan for all nearby Archæans for 45 seconds, allowing you to find any cloaked enemies. You can carry three of them.Revive Kit: You can use this device to revive yourself after being knocked down by DBNO one time.

You’ll want to communicate with your squad before a mission to figure out the best tools for the job. In contrast, it helps to have a diverse set of gear and explosives, doubling up on some beneficial choices if also a good idea, so long as everyone communicates with each other.
