Out of everything s far the plasma blasts fired from Cayde's weapon are by far the most effective, the glowing, pulsing shots ripping through the Drone's hull like pellets through paper. They're small holes yes, but their pierce the construct's hull as they impact, detonating inside and it causes the Drone to shudder just a fraction.

Cayde has dealt damage and gained the Drone's attention, and as a result it starts barrelling towards him with the intent to cleave him in two with a wide, heavy swing of its claws.
