What Are Henchmen?
Henchmen are A.I. players that spawn at The Shark, The Grotto, The Rig, The Yacht, and The Agency. They each have a weapon, ranging from Heavy Assault Rifles to Suppressed Pistols. Some will even have Miniguns or Suppressed Sniper Rifles. Regular henchmen have 50 shield and 100 health. When you knock one down, you'll be able to initiate a Shakedown, which gives you a Scanner that locates and displays enemies with an arrow marker, cameras with an eye marker, chests with a chest marker, and bosses with a crown marker in your vicinity. Bosses act like henchmen, but they have the location specific mythic weapon and more shield.
Henchmen can revive other Henchmen that have been knocked down, but this will take 10 seconds just like a player reviving another player. You can disguise yourself in a Phone Booth to avoid being detected, but if you get too another Henchman or hit a shot on a player or Henchmen, your disguise will dissipate. Taking damage will also cause your disguise to be destroyed, so be careful not to get stuck in the Storm or take fall damage. Being in a Disguise can allow you to open Scan Doors and Henchmen Chests, but you can carry a knocked Henchman to one of these and scan them to open it as well. Henchmen's main purpose are supposed to protect their location.
