One disadvantage of the Enforcer is that they cannot detect enemies in cover, which can be used to a player's advantage. If a player moves stealthily enough from one area to another, the Enforcer will continue to fire into the last known area the enemy was located in. After they have lost track of their target, they will quickly lose interest and turn their back on the enemy, giving the player an opportunity to attack from behind. Once the Enforcer has taken enough damage, its shields will drop and it will explode. After exploding, large pieces of the former Enforcer will come crashing to the ground. These pieces can injure or even kill the player if they land on them, making it best to stay away from the Enforcer when it is destroyed.{{Ref/Reuse|Sacred Icon}}{{Ref/Reuse|Quarantine Zone}}

The Enforcer's pulse beams, which appear similar to the [[Type-33 needler|Needlers]]' projectiles, are usually not a threat to players as they are very easy to dodge. It uses these red projectiles to fight infantry at close- to medium-range. Its mortar projectiles, on the other hand, are extremely dangerous and can quickly pin down or kill infantry. It will use its missiles against any vehicle it encounters, from a [[Type-32 Ghost|Ghost]] to a [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]], and will occasionally use it against infantry, should they appear in large groups. The Enforcer uses its mortar projectiles as medium- to long-range weapons. Enforcers also use both their pulse beams and missiles against the player when on foot. They tend to fire their weapons in an order, going from their pulse beams, then to their missiles, then back to the pulse beams. It will continue this until the player is killed or when the Enforcer is destroyed.{{Ref/Reuse|Sacred Icon}}{{Ref/Reuse|Quarantine Zone}}

If the player can shoot off its pulse beam arms, and the small pair of missile launchers on the top of its back, it will start to fire an invisible [[Sentinel beam]]. Although invisible, the beam causes visible damage to walls. The sparks emitted from the weapon show that the beam is blue, similar to the beam an [[Aggressor Sentinel]] uses. Thereby, you can wield it (it is somewhat hard to do this, so it is not advisable, but, you can try it, making sure not to kill the Enforcer in the process.
