So I decided to see what’s the hype about MaxTac, the dreaded chromed-up elite riot units specialized in taking down dangerous cyberpsychos.
Flatlined me in ten seconds. I wasn’t ready. They came in a squad of four and each one is a miniboss. Hits hard and soaks up damage like a sponge.
Second time around I had to cheese the game and exploit the stealth / unaware takedown mechanic; the game doesn’t care how beefy a humanoid enemy is. The takedown is insta-kill. To execute the takedown the enemy needs to be stunned or unaware, so I was just spamming stunning attacks and getting behind them hoping the “Grab” prompt shows up.
Any straight up firefights will melt me fast, since my current build is not specced for tanking bullets.
