Sonar Lock

Sonar Lock is the utility for the Tone and Tone Prime in Titanfall 2. When used, the Tone will fire a projectile from the left Acolyte Pod that will release a orange pulse on impact that reveals enemies and establishes a partial lock, in an effect similar to that of Pulse Blade. Enemies that are detected are highlighted with orange for a limited time for all friendly players to see.

Strategies

• This can be used to reveal enemies around a corner or wall, allowing you to predict their movements and have the upper hand.
• It can be used to partially reveal cloaked pilots, as they can pose a threat if they rodeo you.
• Since it puts a partial lock on titans, it can be used to complete a lock from around a wall or corner.
• It reveals all enemies to your team, so it can give your team the upper hand for a time.

Trivia

• The Tone Titan Kit Pulse-Echo can be used to make the sonar lock pulse twice, putting two partial locks on enemies.
• In Apex Legends, Bloodhound's Eye of the Allfather tactical ability uses sonar lock to find out where enemies are.
