Chargers are advanced combat units utilized by Null Sector, large in size and able to charge down enemies, dealing high damage to anyone they hit before finishing them off with a high-speed machine gun.
Summary[]
Chargers are first encountered in Resistance, with a red-coloured variant serving as the mission's final boss. They also appeared as enemies in Underworld and during the Cosmic Crisis event.
Tactics[]
- Players can target certain limbs of the Charger and destroy them to deal extra damage.
- Its machine gun is on its left arm; destroy that first to prevent it from using it.
A unique red-coloured Charger serves as the final boss of Resistance, fought in the power relay chamber at the core of the command ship. Partway though the fight, it becomes powered up by the relay, gaining an indestructible shield that blocks all damage. To remove the shield, players have to trick it into charging into the relay itself, disrupting the connection and opening it up to attack. Repeat the process three times and the shield will be permanently broken, allowing players to destroy the Charger.
Standard Chargers featured as elite units in Underworld, and later returned during the Cosmic Crisis limited-time event. During the event, players fought Null Sector forces under the influence of The Ravager, including Chargers.
Trivia[]
- Chargers were initially called Behemoths during development.
- During Cosmic Crises, tentacles could be seen extruding from the Charger's broken off limbs, to show the Ravager's cosmic influence.
