I am confused on what vehicles i can hijack and what vehicles I cannot. I understand you cant hijack important enemies such as bosses but sometimes you cant even hijack ADS and sometimes you can. I dont understand why you cant hijack/board any unimportant vehicle anyway. One time a soldier hijacks my Warthog but i couldnt hijack it back! I dont know how many times I’ve died trying to guess if i can hijack the vehicles or not. Doesnt make sense why we cant hijack non-boss enemies while they can hijack us. The ADS wraiths that spawn on the Round 4 Grunt Mech round on AOS even display the promt to “Board” and when you hold X, the bar goes 90% and stops. So i got killed because something that should have happened didnt.
If you or a teammate had a vehicle stolen, you can hijack it back, as if you were playing Matchmaking against another player.
Vehicles that were spawned in the enemy’s control cannot be hijacked.
The Goblin is considered a vehicle for all intents and purposes, but it’s not one that you’re supposed to be able to drive, so they cut out the Hijack function.
I’m not sure what all you can and can’t hijack, but I know a few from experimenting around with it. The ghosts on W(ave)2 Darkstar with the 2 knight bosses can be stolen and so can the ghosts on W5 Apex after you kill the deacon and then have to kill the hunters. The phaeton helmsmen on W4 Sanctum can also be stolen even though they’re bosses, and on W5 Sanctum the phaetons that help the harbinger knights can be taken too.

Yet i couldnt hijack it back. Maybe it’s a glitch but i couldnt hijack my ghost or warthog that was hijacked by soldiers. And what about the boarding? The prompt was there yet i couldnt do anything.

Did you try to immediately hijack it back? There’s a delay before you can do that, just like in regular Warzone/BTB.
Like I said for the Goblin, it gives you the prompt to board because it is still a vehicle, but they remove the actual function because you aren’t supposed to board one.

I tried to get into the passenger seat in the warthog because the AI for the soldier’s driving isnt very aware to drive away. I was there for a couple seconds and the delay doesnt last that long. For the ghost I dont remember how long i was there but it was long enough to react to it trying to splatter me because i jumped over it than went next to it trying to hijack it but no prompt was present.
And they should just take the Wraith prompt away completely because i was there for awhile trying to board it since its gunner was shot out and they dont fire when you’re up close. Ended up just punching it to death.
