The Stray Reflex is a PDA for the Agent. It is an alternative to the Sapper which trades off being easier to be destroyed for a higher sapping damage.
Just like the Sapper, the Stray Reflex will disable the Buildings, however because of the extra 30% damage bonus, it can destroy the contraptions a lot quicker than the original PDA.
However the Stray Reflex can be destroyed instantly by one hit from a Mechanic's Wrench (or the Homewrecker from the Arsonist), this means that the Stray Reflex can perform poorly when a Mechanic is around his buildings, make sure to use it on unattended buildings as Mechanics will have a shorter amount of time to run back to repair them.
The Stray Reflex could be unlocked by reaching tier 1 of the Versatile Vacation Pass.

Tips[]
- Only use the Stray Reflex if you're confident that you can kill the Mechanic. The Stray Reflex will be useless if the Mechanic is alive.
- The Stray Reflex might be better to use than the stock Sapper when it comes to the Mechanic's respawn time. If their buildings happen to be just outside their spawn point (a good example is the second capture point on Upward), the Stray Reflex will destroy the buildings before the Mechanic respawns.
- Even with the Mechanic dead, beware of any Arsonists using the Homewrecker. They'll foil your plans of destroying the Mechanic's nest.
