15 Things Only Rainbow Six: Siege Fans Will Understand

8. Knowing A Caveira Is Roaming Around

Of all the post-release operators released so far, the one players aim the most ire at is the stealth-based Caveira. With the ability to mute her footsteps and lurk around maps with a silenced pistol, in the right hands the character can be the biggest asset to the defending team, but her versatility and unpredictability is what makes her so hated by attackers.

That's because the effectiveness of her abilities means players don't have to wait for opponents to come to them, but can actively search them out. Consequently, if you use the operator right you can get the drop on anyone, whacking them with silence headshots or even, if you're feeling particularly cheeky, going in for the close-quarters knifing.

To make matters worse, she can reveal the locations of the rest of your team if she downs and interrogates you. There's nothing worse than having to admit to the rest of the players that she not only beat you, but comprised their position in the process.

You'd think her weapons and abilities would make her pretty useless in a straight-up firefight, but even then she's formidable, capable of facing you head on or just running off and coming back later with backup.
