Agent Pea

Agent Pea is a Super Rare variant (Rare in Garden Warfare 2) of the Peashooter in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2. Unlike the normal Peashooter, the Agent Pea does not deal splash damage with the Pea Silencer, but instead gets increased damage at headshots. The Agent Pea fires a lot quicker, zooms in more, has a more accurate crosshair, and reloads slightly faster. However, he is the most fragile Peashooter variant, having only 100 health compared to most other Peashooters having 125 health, upon being decreased in the Legends of the Lawn DLC.

Origins

Agent Pea is a reference to the famous character James Bond from the "007" series of movies. Thus, his hair resembles that of Sean Connery's Bond.

His name might also be a reference to the character Perry the Platypus, codename: Agent P, from the TV series Phineas and Ferb, created by Disney.

Strategies

Players that can reliably land headshots as the Peashooter may find the Agent Pea to be an ideal character to use. His crosshair allows for accurate shots, which aids him in sniping. The damage per second value for his primary weapon is the highest out of any character in the game at any range, making him extremely annoying in 1v1 situations.

While the Agent Pea is capable of dealing damage at such a high rate that he practically vanquishes weaker zombies almost outright, he possesses the lowest health out of all Peashooters, at just 100 HP. This makes him very vulnerable to ambushes and surprise attacks. With this in mind, always be aware of your surroundings, do not let the zombies catch you by surprise, for if they do, they can vanquish you before you even gain a chance to react, so be cautious when you play.

Basic close quarters combat tips:

Keep in mind that you have the lowest starting health (100) of any Peashooter variant in the game. Keep this in mind when choosing your battles. Ideally, attack enemies from behind, attack them while they are fighting another plant or catch them off guard and utilize the massive damage multiplier for headshots and always stay moving.
You are vulnerable while reloading. An easy tip to help survive this process is jumping during the reload period, as it will become slightly harder for an enemy to expect where you will be. Alternatively, duck in behind cover.
Do not be afraid of All-Stars if they recently used their Sprint Tackle. The Agent Pea is one of the most annoying characters at taking down All-Stars due to their massive head hitbox which is the critical hit area. When engaging All-Stars, use their critical hitbox to your advantage. Agent Pea can take an All-Star out at extreme speeds. However, watch out for their Sprint Tackles as it will take away a lot of your health while Ultra Tackles have the risk of vanquishing you outright. Exploit props, obstacles and other physical objects that block tackles.
Engineers are somewhat harder to deal with due to their Sonic Grenades, which can stun you for long enough to become your undoing, Jackhammers give the Engineer a mobility boost high enough to make headshots extremely difficult to land, yet jumping up to a high enough vantage point can counter both of these abilities. The Engineer has a rather large head hitbox and less health than the All-Star, meaning they are easier to take out health-wise.
Super Pea Jump may be one of the most useful, but worse abilities to use when in a pinch since if you manage to get up to a vantage point that cannot be reached by jumping and is not vulnerable to splash damage, you have a high chance to survive and even win the fight since headshots are easy to land even at long range (with enough skill) while most zombies will be left on the ground with no other chance than to either try to shoot back (and exposing themselves to headshots), running away (allowing you to survive) or trying to reach the vantage point (which can in most cases only be done as the Foot Soldier and will still leave them vulnerable to headshots).
Try not to get a whole group of enemy players by yourself, as having no splash damage makes it hard to take down the whole group, unless you are pea Gatling in a good spot, and if you try to take down small groups, ( 2-3 ) if there’s a scientist, take it out first as it’s healing ability’s will make it difficult for you.
Do not be afraid to go one-on-one with other zombies, as you can usually fire quicker than them if you spam the fire button.

With

The Agent Pea's main trump card is his elevated headshot damage, a successful headshot gives a 2x damage boost. Due to the fact that the Pea Silencer deals moderate damage for headshots and pitiful damage otherwise, you should try to locate a zombie that is already fighting another plant, aim for the head and shoot. Try to stay at a reasonable distance from your targets and zoom in while aiming to minimize bullet spread and to gain maximum accuracy.

If you are forced into close range fight, ignore zooming in and just "hip-fire" for the head. Try to dodge incoming fire and when reloading, quickly take cover before resuming the fight, your low health means that every hit you sustain will be too much. If the situation gets critical, use Hyper to run away or Super Pea Jump to jump up to a high vantage point and use it to either flee or harass your opponent, or if you are skilled, headshot them.

Against

The Agent Pea is incredibly dangerous to deal with. Be an All-Star variant, like Hockey Star, a Scientist variant, like Computer Scientist, a Soldier variant, like Super Commando, or an Engineer variant, like Welder.

If he's not reacting to you while he's attacking your teammate or reviving his vanquished allies, you should vanquish him safely enough without letting him attack you in quick succession. Fortunately, the Engineer's Sonic Grenades are very useful for stunning him, but for a short duration. Remember, the Chemist is extremely perfect for attacking him in quick succession. If you vanquish him, you should be very proud and relieved.

Fire variants and characters with high burst-damage such as Engineers and/or Scientists hard counter Agent Pea since he only has 100 health (as opposed to the 125-health pool that most of the other Peashooters have).

The "Pea-Pea-7 Special" takes its name from a weapon in the Nintendo 64 video game Goldeneye, based on the James Bond movie of the same name. It was the name used for the Walther PPK, James' iconic weapon of the film series, with a changed name for copyright reasons.

- Specifically, Agent Pea's mouth resembles a gun's silencer (known as a suppressor).
- In his game files, his weapon name is "silencerpea".

He, along with Law Pea, have much more accurate crosshairs than other Peashooter variants.
He, Law Pea, and Commando Pea are the only Peashooter variants that do not deal splash damage.
His description saying "Licensed to Vanquish" references the 1989 007 film Licensed to Kill.
He is the only peashooter to actually have an attachment in his mouth, resembling a Gatling pea.
