Skills & Behavior

Primary: Beam Attack

The Solus Probe attacks by firing a blue beam at the player, similar to the Stone Titan'sStone Titan
Crisis VanguardHP: 2100 (+630 per level)
Damage: 40 (+8 per level)
Class: Ranged / Melee
Speed: 5 m/s
Armor: 20 laser attack but slower. This beam rapidly deals 20% damage with a proc coefficient of 0.2 per tick. The beam ticks every 0.2 seconds (scales with attack speed) and has a range of 60m.

There is a 2 second cooldown between turning the beam off and back on.

Behaviors

1. Use primary and flee: the Solus Probe must be within 20m from its target. The primary is not necessary to be off cooldown. This behavior will be active for 3 seconds.
2. Use primary and strafe: the Solus Probe must be within 20-40m from its target. The primary is not necessary to be off cooldown. This behavior will be active for 3 seconds.
3. Chase: no requirements, as long as the acquired target is alive. This behavior will be active for 2 seconds.
4. Return to leader: the Solus Probe must have an owner and be more than 10m away. It will try to acquire a new target on the next frame, so it will stay near the leader until it successfully does so. If the leader dies before the Solus Probe has found a new target, this behavior will not be selectable and as such it will switch to the Wander AI state.

Tips

• The Solus Probe is not particularly dangerous, as its beam deals relatively low damage compared to other monsters. However, the beam can very easily chip the player, which can prove dangerous if reliant on shields or regenerative items such as Cautious SlugCautious Slug
  Rapidly heal outside of danger.
  Increases base health regeneration by +3 hp/s (+3 hp/s per stack) while outside of combat..
• Generally the Solus Probes will not be a large threat to the player, but they can become overwhelming in the beginning of a run due to their relatively high max health.
  • Normally this is not an issue due to them only appearing from Solus Control UnitsSolus Control Unit
