I think he means the Redeemer-toting, DoY-Cyborg based Tech Haven Security Unit MkIIs.

EDIT: Which are on Venus, and soon to arrive on the other servers.

They arent very strong.. there as useless as the 100/100 bots.. almost.. my 0/2 Tank could stand there and take 2 or 3 hits.. its the fact they loose 50% damage.. maybe if they carried Plasma rifles or rayguns.. they would be useful :)

Venus is rented by a third-party company, unlikely that Reakktor will do the same thing.

Kimmy, your tank is protected by the "no one shot kills" rule.

And Helen, they are coming to the other servers too, as it was Reef Smoker who helped get the idea started in the first place.

Either way there just as useless as TG guards.. its the 50% decrease in damage tha tmakes them useless.. except there so many of them and they seem to have better AI than the normal bots in TH so i guess they might be of use..

Really? I wasn't aware of that one.

Very rarely go to TechHaven though, so no biggy for me.

Hmm.. good point. Though I'm not entirely certain that it doesn't work in PvM. The only mob I think of ever being one shot killed by is a Chaser killing my low level PE, but that's a stack. Even my low level chars haven't been one shot killed by even Chaos mobs, so I'm inclined to believe the rule still applies. Most mobs fire in bursts though, e.g. Aggies, WBs, so it won't apply in all cases anyway.

What it boils down is they are using fusion weapons, which have a damage penalty at close range and a damage bonus at long range. In the canyon this means for the most part the guards do crap damage, but occasionally when someone runs round the long horseshoe they get killed because they underestimate the damage the guards can dish outat the optimal range. In TH though, there are no open spaces at all, so fusion weapons are possibly the worst they can use.

Give them lower jaws.

Damn Y's dribbling all over the TH floor will make the place slippery.

If anything it's the Ys who'll be doing the slipping. I can't imagine those bones provide much grip.
