#YOU KEEP YOUR ENEMIES CLOSE SERIES#

Note that during the turn enemy can either move and shoot or 'Sprint' for double the movement range, but no attack.Also I would advise using your servo-skulls primarily for collecting CP, even if you have 2 or 3 unused at the end of your turn. Also consider having at least 1 CP-free weapon for each of your Tech-Priests, as this will be a long and CP-expensive mission. If you have abilities with timeouts - try to use them as soon as sensible (just remember to manage cognition points).Even if it seems like there's just one in the inventory. A lot of tutorials don't say it, so: Remember that if you do unlock a weapon or an item - you can equip it on all of your tech-priests.

Sadly you have to memorize it, as there's no display in the game itself.

You always should know which tech-priest is on 100% dodge and which one has used his opportunity attack.

Upgraded Servo-Skull and acid will still do damage, even if an enemy has 100% dodge chance.

You can disable the untargettability by triggering an opportunity attack (enter then exit melee range).

Additionally, they can gain 100% dodge chance against all attacks with a cooldown of 2 turns.

All major enemies (tech-priests) start being untargettable until they make their first attack, which will be really punishing.

Take all physical armor items you can, they are more important than just buffing your health (though if you do have just base-10 health units - I would recommend skipping this mission until you are ready)

You will soak a lot of physical damage in melee range and acid damage over time.

Xerxetes: There is but one solution to malcontents and rebellion, Magos! It is as the discipline of Physics states it: Force always wins! I permit myself to experience frustration at this news. Xerxetes: We cannot neglect the security on board the Caestus Metalican! I bring news of a violent uprising among the lower ranks of the Tech-Priests and menials on the enginarium decks.įaustinius: An uprising? This is the last thing we need. I must trust you to fulfill your duties as Subtribune without my oversight. Rewards depend on a difficulty level (or are random per save?).įaustinius: My attention is on Silva Tenebris, Xerxetes. This is not a detailed walkthrough of the mission telling you what to do, but rather a guide that tells you about the options and approaches. It's one of the more difficult missions in the game, so I've decided to write a guide for it.
