=== About ===
  
−
The Reinforced Power Drills are the key mobility and support tool of the Driller, destroying any terrain they are used upon. The Drills can also be used against enemies to conserve ammo. By default, the drills have 35 units of fuel. When all the fuel is depleted, the drills with become unusable until they are refueled at a [[Resupply Pod]]. The Drills are also susceptible to overheating, which will also render them inoperable during the lengthy cooldown period.
  
−
<br><br>
  
−
The Drills are an invaluable tool during extractions, as they can be used to drill a tunnel back to the [[Drop Pod]]. While the drills can be used as a melee weapon, they will not be effected by any melee [[perks]] or drink buffs.

There's currently three tiers with one upgrade each.
  
  +
  +
The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' are a Support Tool used by the [[Driller]]. They are a pair of massive handheld drills mounted up to the Driller's forearms. The Driller can be seen clenching his fists while the drills spin, implying they have a trigger on the grip found inside the arm mount.
  +
  +
Perhaps the Driller's most iconic tool, the Powerdrills are able to cleave through solid rock like butter. They are more effective at breaking rock than the [[Pickaxe]]s carried by the Driller and his teammates; digging faster and in a much wider space. However, the drills can't mine minerals. The Drills rely on both Fuel and Heat meters. Using the Drills will deplete the former and raise the latter. The Powerdrills are vulnerable to overheating and will jam if their Heat exceeds 100%, and will become fully inoperable if their Fuel reaches 0. The Drills will automatically cool when not spun, even while holstered.
  +
  +
The Drills can also break [[Creature Armor|armor]] and have a guaranteed Fear Factor and Stun chance, essentially stun-locking enemies in place while whittling their health down.
  +
  +
As a melee weapon, the Reinforced Powerdrills can trigger the [[Vampire]] perk.

— Item Description

The Reinforced Power Drills are a Support Tool used by the Driller. They are a pair of massive handheld drills mounted up to the Driller's forearms. The Driller can be seen clenching his fists while the drills spin, implying they have a trigger on the grip found inside the arm mount.

Perhaps the Driller's most iconic tool, the Powerdrills are able to cleave through solid rock like butter. They are more effective at breaking rock than the Pickaxes carried by the Driller and his teammates; digging faster and in a much wider space. However, the drills can't mine minerals. The Drills rely on both Fuel and Heat meters. Using the Drills will deplete the former and raise the latter. The Powerdrills are vulnerable to overheating and will jam if their Heat exceeds 100%, and will become fully inoperable if their Fuel reaches 0. The Drills will automatically cool when not spun, even while holstered.

The Drills can also break armor and have a guaranteed Fear Factor and Stun chance, essentially stun-locking enemies in place while whittling their health down.

As a melee weapon, the Reinforced Powerdrills can trigger the Vampire perk.
