Now let‘s tackle the threats guarding all this loot…
Artificial Army Weaknesses Exposed
While visually intimidating, the key to triumphing against Artificial Island‘s imposing enemy roster involves targeting weak points. Here‘s breakdowns revealing each mechanical monster‘s optimal counterstrategy:
Caliburnus
This trickster creates illusory clones while bombarding from range. But staying mobile avoiding projectiles until reaching melee range for a point blank discharge attack exposes the real body for punishment.
Guardians
These shielded titans seem impervious frontally. However, their vulnerable battery backs when briefly exposed allow landing charged hammer smash attacks for immense damage. Luring them into turning or baiting shield bashes creates openings.
Volcanicus
The epic scale lava beast picker. But briefly revealed glowing plasma nodes across its body serve as critical hit zones after being exposed by explosive payloads. Concentrated fire on nodes topples a titan!
With the right intel, even formidable foes turn trivial. For additional enemy stats and loot tables, check the official artbook. Knowledge is power!
