Talk:Praetorians (Enemy Group)

• Antimatter will escape the first time you find him during the Tina McIntyre Story Arc, once his life reaches 50% or so, hence the special power mentioned. Please note that defeating him in this mission will NOT count towards the Portal Jockey accolade, and you will need to fight him again.

• Antimatter will fight you a second time, in the same Story Arc, this time to stay. He may be dangerous due to the number of Area Effect debuffs he has, being perfectly able to inmensely debuff the whole group if you leave him do it. Once his life has dropped enough he will use his nuke, Atomic Blast, and by this point nearly everyone will be severely debuffed. He uses it with alarming frequency, and it will probably kill those who are in Melee range if they are unlucky.

• Neuron is, apparently, the easiest of Praetorian AVs. For some reason his damage output isn't very high (for an AV). Despite his powers have a -Recovery component, I never found him hard at all. He does not have huge nukes, nor tries anything strange during fights (indeed even his use of Lightning Clap seems to be very unusual, as I have seen him use it only once) As usual, results and opinions greatly depend on the character and archetype you play.

• Lightning Field will not display at all, but it is there, and the chat window will reveal it. I used the PIGG files as a source of info and added the proper icon, and I just hope everything is all right.

• Shadowhunter may be found always at the same spot, in the river near the wall, NE corner of the mission map. His armor and ability to heal himself usually means this is a rather long fight. As he's present in at least one timed mission, I advice bringing a team with a good damage output, to make things easier.

• Infernal appears to have some sort of perception buff which allows him to see through stealth. Well, he could see through my illusionist's Group Invisibility, so I'm not sure how strong his perception is.

Bobcat Has What?

Shouldn't Bobcat's power list show Elude instead of Unstoppable? --Eabrace 00:42, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Think Bobcat uses Unstoppable, unlike Mynx, who uses Elude, much like how Tyrant is Energy Melee while Statesman is Super Strength. Sera404 01:03, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Yup. I just checked. Bobcat's powers are Eviscerate, Focus, Focused Fighting, Follow Up, Resistance, Shockwave, Slash, Spin, Strike, Super Leap, Swipe, and Unstoppable. I'd say that's a pretty good guess that I had Mynx in mind at the time I wrote that. --Eabrace 06:32, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Dominatrix has Propel

I fought her yesterday. She opened by throwing a toilet at me, and she'd littered the hallway with stuff by the time I beat her. But I'm not sure where to get the one-line power description to properly add this to the wiki. Corebreach 23:01, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

I usually grab them from the power descriptions in the power set articles. In this case, Gravity_Control#Propel. --Eabrace 00:16, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

By typing [Dominatrix.Propel] ingame, I get the description: "Dominatrix can open up a portal and pull in a heavy object that her (presume it's meant to be 'she', not 'her') can then levitate and propel at foes!" Sera404 00:18, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Is it possible to get that info for any enemy in the game, and how would I figure out what format to use? I'm trying to call up Amy Jonsson's power descriptions, but "Amy Jonsson" doesn't work as a prefix and "Amy's Ward" creates a hotlink to her summoning power no matter what power name I put after it. Corebreach 01:34, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

With [Amy's Ward], you can get a list of the powers Amy Jonsson has at the bottom of the detailed info page (Astral Form, Healing Aura, Heal Other, Clear Mind, Adrenalin Boost, Fly, Positioning, Lightning Bolt, Snow Storm, Static Discharge, and Resistance). To bring up the details for each power individually, you could just use the base names or you could be more specific and use the following:

• [Astral Form.Astral Form]
• [White Magic.Healing Aura]
• [White Magic.Heal Other]
• [White Magic.Clear Mind]
• [White Magic.Adrenaline Boost]
• [Cabal_Maven_Lt_Movement.Fly]
• (Fly fx and Positioning should be something like [Cabal_Maven_Lt_Movement.Fly_fx] and [Cabal_Maven_Lt_Movement.Positioning], but nothing links)
• [Cabal_Maven_Lt_Defender.Lightning Bolt]
• [Cabal_Maven_Lt_Defender.Snow Storm]
• [Cabal Boss Melee.Static Discharge]

As for where I get those names? Well, it kind of requires having the right tools and being able to find your way around in the "Files That Dare Not Be Named". --Eabrace 05:52, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
