If you're playing on any difficulty other than madness, that's not normal, but I haven't modified the flashbangs at all in any of my mods, unfortunately it's not up to me to fix

may i inquire, is it normal for the flashbangs to one shot a corpus on... anyone in the splash
including my own G.O.L.E.M. unit

im not sure if its a lack of armor or what (if it is a lack of armor in screwed as a magiturge with 8 equip load ): )

its the biggest problem i face fighting through here as i can handle evreything fine, then i get hit by one flashbang and combo'ed by a random grunt and oops im on one corpus now!!!

very painful, i hope they become more flash and less bang...

ive re explained myself in discussions as to not clog the comments.

He spawns towards the end of the wave with only ~10 or so enemies remaining as they serve as a way to keep you occupied with fighting and supplied with weaponry even as you are evading the boss. Having him be completely alone would trivialize the elevated danger posed by the wave.

If you could explain or demonstrate how specifically your problem with the teleport is happening in more detail, I'd appreciate it and I can get to work on some features to alleviate the problem.

I'm not really sure what you mean by "Inconsistent," "Glitchy," or "Bitchslapped by the code," but that teleportation ability is easily dodgeable with the right timing, I don't know how it's consistently causing issues for you or how it's forcing you into corners.

On top of that, offensive abilities like the teleport punch are meant to be faced to the target, I can't just make it go somewhere else, nor give it an needless cooldown when you can remain close to the boss and exploit his slow hand-to-hand windups without triggering the flank.

nono the movespeed isnt the issue, the issue is his "close the gap" teleportation ability ALWAYS faces him TOWARDS your charachter, so, youre either forced to bait him, or forced into a corner where you can't do anything and it ends up being a slog. if you either made it have a 30 second cooldown or made it not always face the player, then it would be way less inconsistent and glitchy to fight against.

also, never played may, and i have no idea how he keeps shitstomping me when i get there. ofc, for immersion's sake i keep the mod always on so im a little limited by my tools but otherwise i should be destroying him, but that bs teleportation ability makes him either unbeatable or laughable.

also having him spawn last as a forced mechanic would be alot better than fighting him mid-wave with 5 people who can give you an effect where you get bitchslapped by the code.

I'm sure how he's too fast for a 35 imprint carnivore origin considering I've seen May herself defeat him with much less, but I have added more attack cooldowns by increasing the endlag of his elbow drop, as well as decreasing his movement speed by 0.25

Ok bro you need to put a cooldown on highliner kyarichos' attacks, that motherfucker stunlocks me period, no matter what build i use. also, the screwdriver technique sucks as a way to take down an enemy that mobile, make him slower.
no, its not a "skill issue" if i can't beat him on c+o carnivore with 35 imprints.

The infinite waves have been buffed heavily

It replaces every wave in the entire level

Does this mod replaces the infinite waves or all of them?

singlehandly the BEST arena mod on the steam workshop considering the enemies drop guns with spare mags, vita troopers can be used to heal corpus blocks, and the enemy units will make your arena mode oc BLEED regardless!

unfortunately i found a rather consistent way to softlock (mostly on accident) where if a living vita trooper (green guys you execute for a corpus) is knocked off the train cars they just do not die and render the wave unbeatable

No origins included

yo is there origin in arena for this?

i hate lemon blood people

The guys trying to shoot you as soon as you board might be the biggest indicator

how were we meant to know they didn't want their train stolen?

i was going to talk about kyriarchos, whatever his name is until i saw i needed to use those screwdrivers some enemies drop, either way, some of these bosses are really interesting and use cool attacks, well done!

they keep fuckin ripping my helmets and head armor off and it won't give it back to me at the end of the arena which is some bullshit especially when i have armor that i spent time rolling for in the shop

good mod, way better than most, and i figured out the conflict in my mods and fixed it.

If the red icon shows up above his head, it still allows you to perform the helmet removal execution from behind

its more than likely a conflict with my personal mod setup, but when i was on the stage i DID try using those stun-grenade launchers and it just pissed him off.

In what way are they broken, I mean
I can try to fix them if there's a specific issue going on with them

How are the designated weapons not working?

and by stumble i mean stagger

yeah, my bad.

also, i think there's a confliction because i either am not seeing the weapon or it's not working correctly, if it's those weird stun grenade launchers.

tbh in my opinion if you wanted to make a more difficult large enemy i would reccomend changing kyriarchos's mechanics to where he takes multiple aggrovations to stumble, instead of having a dedicated weapon to rely on, bc thats also kinda annoying considering my current build (chaos and order cannibal)

Do you mean the third wave segment, with Kyriarchos?
There is no highliner boss in the infinite waves

You have to attack him with one of the red named weapons dropped by the special units in that wave to force him into a vulnerable state that allows you to take both the helmet & armor off
That or bait him off the train enough times to break all his corpuses

uh
why is the highliner boss on the start of the infinite waves invincible to oncoming attacks and unstaggerable?

very hard and I like that

these mfs will make your cringy oc BLEED and i respect them for it

Actually fucking challenging and fun, there are troops that you absolutely need to prioritize first among the canon fodders such as the area denial flamethrower or the deadly sniper that makes your dodge into a graze hit instead with tacbar among deadly opponents and bosses. It's as if it's hardsell, but 10x times harder.


This mod seriously put your skills, loadout, and whatever origin along your hirelings to a stress test, especially on madness difficulty. Don't use vanilla origins unless if it's stacked up to deck or you wanna suffer.

10/10 tho

Finally.

The most challenging yet fun mission in the workshop(imo).

This mission will provide you enough pain & suffering, while putting your powerful origins and your own gamer skills to the test. (unless your origin's literally in god-mode)

Btw, those wimpy vanilla origins wouldnt have a chance unless they're stacked with 30+ imprints.

obey the yellow

Peak

we're so back atp bros
