Chest core has 150 HP across all difficulties. Torso armor has 225 HP on Sui and 292 HP on HoE. Even then, there are a lot of robots to deal with at any given time and they soak up a lot of shots- yes, in the chest. This is not an opportunity that happens a lot in HoE on account of them being short and main enemies being fast while robots hang back. You play the low-difficulty scales don't you? Originally posted by Surrender Dorothy:Shoot them in the chest. This rant really turned into a bit of an essay whew. Personally, I'd like to see their spawn rate reduced by at least 2/3 or them removed altogether, though obviously that's not likely. Sure, they have a weakness to fire, but again, firebug's got other priorities given the game's design and they keep their distance. Maybe it only seems that way because they take so heccing long to kill, idk!Ī demolitionist of sharpshooter aren't that much help either because other zeds block the shots and a demo won't even kill the buggers with 1 or 2 hits, as if a demo doesn't already have enough on their plate. They seem more common than husks or sirens in HoE. Playing, there are always minimum 3 or 4 crappy robots at a distance pinging me and whittling me down for free and there's nothing I can do about it because the game is built around the other zeds running at you constantly. Not to mention their ridiculously high spawn rate. I mean, husks are even just more interesting because they actually do cool stuff like fireballs and flamethrowers- these cheesy robots just cheesily throw damage at you one way or the other or lolfreeze you for free. Husks are different because they are large, meaning a player can target them over the crowds and they are also not absurdly tanky. I can appreciate trying to do something different to keep players interested but these boys are just so un-fun and I feel go completely against the game's core design. You can avoid the rockets and lasers easy enough if you aren't immobilized by other cancerbots thanks to their insane spawn rate, but what are you supposed to do when they suddenly jet to the front of a zed pack for a twirling massive damage melee without being a firebug or having one in your pocket? Bullet sponge enemies that spawn constantly and do massive damage are not fun to deal with.
