Best Aruni loadout in Rainbow Six Siege

A good Aruni loadout in Rainbow Six Siege can be useful to players who intend to delay their opponents. Using trapper operators on Defense can aid the entire team by stopping Attacker rushes. Among these trappers, is Aruni, who has often been held in high regard due to her passive ability and strong primary weapon options. While her kit can force players to stay in passive anchor roles, her presence in an objective site is always a nuisance for the Attackers.

Also known as Apha Tawanroong, Aruni hails from Ta Phraya District, Thailand, and is a part of the Nighthaven Squad in Rainbow Six Siege. She was introduced in Operation Neon Dawn and has since received several changes to her kit. Currently, in Operation Twin Shells, Aruni features a 3-Armor 1-Speed kit with a prosthetic arm that works as a soft breach tool. She also brings a couple of high-precision weapons in her primary slot and is a great fit in lineups that require both a trapper and an anchor.

In this article, we shall look at the best possible Aruni loadout in Rainbow Six Siege and discuss how players can use her efficiently in matches.

For players who face difficulty using DMRs, the second option available in an Aruni loadout in Rainbow Six Siege is the P10 Roni. Although this SMG houses the smallest magazine (15+1) in the entire game, it still boasts an accuracy that far outweighs any concern caused by the low bullet count.

Players can choose from a couple of team-play-based utilities for Aruni, both of which are effective when playing as an anchor. She can equip herself with a Bulletproof Camera or a set of Barbed Wire. The former can not only assist the entire Defender team by providing intel, but it can also shoot an EMP laser that temporarily disables Attacker utility.

The Barbed Wire, on the other hand, is a great secondary gadget that can be laid as a trap on entries, doorways, or any other general locations where Attackers might come from. This will work as an intel tool as well as a utility that can slow down and harm rushers.

Equipped with the best Aruni loadout in Rainbow Six Siege, you must first assess the map and the objective site ahead of you. Having in-depth game sense and map knowledge will allow you to predict where Attackers can come from and help you place your gadgets accordingly. Always be ready to engage and assist your team from an anchor role if necessary.

You must, at all times, keep track of the proximity of your primary gadget to your current playing position. This is because getting too close to a Surya Gate can disable it and let Attackers know that someone is playing close to it. Also, be on the lookout for Brava Kludge drones as they are the only hard counters to Aruni.

When a round starts, get started with objective site prep immediately. Assist your team with rotations, head holes, and footholes wherever necessary, and place your secondary gadgets in areas where they will prove most beneficial for the entire team. Set up your Surya Gates in positions that can delay Attackers, as keeping time in your favor is always beneficial for any Defender.
