TGMC:Guide to xenomorph cqc

This page is a part of the TGMC wiki. TGMC is a project based on the CM-SS13 codebase.

Time to help xenomorphs by making this guide concrete.

Introduction

So you've read the Xeno quickstart guide and now you want to get better at killing marines! Look no further to here!

There is one rule to kill marines: DO NOT DIE

Intra-xenomorph Mechanics

Weed

Always yell at drone, hivelord, hivemind, shrike, and queen for weed when marines and xenomorphs are fighting in unweeded areas. When you are on weed, even standing, you regen plasma. You also regen some hp (very small amount). And also you receive a speed boost. Fight on weeds!

Targetting Limbs

You can select body parts on the doll in the bottom right corner, or via Numpad.

Damaging and breaking limbs have different effects. For them see Guide to medicine and Marine Mechanics. In short:

• Dealing damage also damages organs in that body part
• After some damage you can break bones
• Broken arms forbid shooting
• Broken legs give a major penalty to speed
• Broken head, groin and chest deal organ damage to respective body part
• In general case, it is better to hit chest - organ damage there affects a lot of organs which will eventually kill the marine if not treated
• Targeting head sometimes gives more damage output. Like when he doesn't wear a helmet
• Targeting arms can render the marine helpless
