  • The Viper King was pretty damn cool, I admit. But he was but Subject Gamma. There's also Subject Alpha and Beta to contend with...
    And MY GOD ARE THEY CHEAP! I was SO glad to finally DEFEAT them! They ALL take a move EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. YOU! MOVE. And they are INCREDIBLY powerful. AND they can open up a gate to get away when they take a bunch of damage so it's guaranteed you won't defeat them on your first encounter!
    But at least you get excellent loot/armor from them. ;)

    when i first met that berserker queen i took her down with a single sniper shot because of the 10% chance of execution from the repeater.. the most satisfying moment in xcom ive ever had..

    • @jaymartin4438
      @jaymartin4438 8 років тому +31

      Just came across her on the first advent blacksite mission... Was either kill her with the 5% to instant kill, or my whole squad dies... This is xcom so there's no need to explain what the fuck happened. LAWD Give me strength!

    If the Viper King is the only male of its species.. and Thin Men were derived from Vipers.... have we been fighting Thin Trans all along?

    • @MDoorpsy
      @MDoorpsy 8 років тому +60

      Thin men were genetically modded enough to be a completely different species. It is likely they would not be able to breed with each other. Could also be that the Elders thought the male vipers were so dangerous that they decided to only modify them when they invade a new planet. When they take control of a planet they presumably just kill baby male vipers in their cribs.

    You've labeled this as purely meeting and defeating them.... Yet this is the only video that does even half effective at displaying the DLC content, and all the extras such as research etc. I can't find a single video, that shows more than just the first mission. Or is part of someone's play through series, Nd so requires watching a our 3+ videos, which about 2/3 or more of the footage is just standard content from the game, or other DLC's...
    So thank you.

    Yeah, I was way overpressured when I did this. Full plasma weapons and shit. I didn't realize that I was meant to do it earlier. The only one I might have had trouble with was the Archon, but I hit him with 5 separate superior repeater overwatches. The Viper was simple - frost bomb, acid grenade and then Rapid Fire/Fan Fire (Dragon and Venom rounds respectively). Beserker was trickier because she came at me in a UFO, with half my team just outside, but I still just about managed (thank god for Fan Fire, again).

    • @ngrey651

    • @divisiondude2011
      @divisiondude2011 5 років тому +3

      No you don't see them again unless they fled before you could kill them, then they return with the health they had when they ran away. But a killed ruler is gone for good and you can craft unique armors after doing an autopsy

    • @Adam-go7cz
      @Adam-go7cz 8 років тому

      15% is ok, I for example go with 2 rangers, so 2 actions, 2x rapid fire and here you go for 60% total in just 2 actions (also overwatch works before they even attack).
      Queen and Archon both fell ez this way, Viper king not cus he is too earlygame, so he went longer.

    • @Ravenjim93
      @Ravenjim93 8 років тому +1

      +Adam Kubík thats not how the maths works :p 15%x2 is not 30%. think of it that way. if you have two shots of 70 % that doesnt mean they will add to 140% for a sure shot, its still 70 and 70 for each. they can both miss with a chance of aprox 9% of that happening while both hitting is about 49%.
      So even on rapid fire the chance of the repeater is 15% for each idividual hit and not additive

  • @joshuaperry4112
    @joshuaperry4112 6 років тому +4

    They need to make more of these boss-monsters, but make the rewards less OP. It gets to the point that you can face-roll through shit. Making unique Macro rewards would be a good balance.

Every tongue attack pulked my guys under the fire of 2 turrets. Tactics, man. Every next encounter was easy arteezy. Shick gun and psicell helped a lot.

      Have not try that myself but they have huge variety of immunities for many types of attacks, debuffs and such so im sure that mind control would for them be like throwing a rock, especially on Alpha one as he seems to be the most behemoth like towards any debuff what so ever. I even tried to freeze him and he literally breaks it when his turn is on, which is immediate.
      Crazy fun challenge tho
