KANTUS Kantus are very special type of Locust, almost priest-like. They are armed with a pistol and can throw potent Ink Grenades. But their special abilities make them more dangerous than the weapons they carry. First, Kantus can raise downed Locust, restoring them to full battle effectiveness. This means that Kantus must be your primary target in any mixed engagement. If you don't prioritize them, you'll see downed Drones stand right back up and rejoin battle. Kantus can also scream to summon Tickers. This can be a standard battle into a very unpleasant one. Try to take them down at a distance before they can get close and compromise your cover. Finally, the Kantus' scream can knock you down at close range, so getting a short-range fight is not advisable. VITALS WEAPONRY Gorgon Pistol, Ink Grenades HEALTH 2000 COVER Kantus tend to stay out of cover, but they are also fairly mobile. They like to keep this distance from youall the better to raise downed Drones and summon Tickers. Picking them off with distance weaponry works well. Kantus can be a serious threat to your cover, as the Ink Grenades they toss render whole areas unusable for several seconds. You may occasionally get lucky enough to find Ink Grenades on their bodies, through they don't always drop them. |
