UNDEFINED XENO

Gorger

Difficulty: Medium Rank: Hatchling (Starting), Young (10hrs), Mature (25hrs), Elder (70 hrs), Ancient (175 hrs) Duties: Gather as much blood as possible from marines, use the blood to support wounded xenomorphs, and provide overheal for the hive INCLUDING YOURSELF! In the mean time, take as much bullets from marines Guides: This is the guide. Quote: "What is a marine? A miserable little pile of unga. But enough talk... Have at you!"

The Menacing and Beefy Vampire

Humans are an abundant food supply that the xenomorphs use to no end. Their faces ripe for facehugging, their psychic energy ready to be drained, and their blood untapped for unlimited potential. New experimentation from the hivemind sought to utilize human blood in light of this biological philosophy and due to the fact that the TerraGov Marine Corps' weaponry can overwhelm xenomorphs. With the power of human blood, the xenomorphs create a living tank that runs on human blood.

Playing the Gorger

Green overlay on any xenomorph is overheal.

You are a tank, not a ravager, meaning you can take in damage but not deck out damage.

Your responsibilities are:

• Directing marine's firepower to you instead of your squishy xenomorphs
• Ensuring that you have overheal to truly tank marines' shots
• Stealing marine's precious blood to advance your goals
• Draining and rooting marine so that other xenomorphs can wombo combo
• Healing wounded xenomorphs with marine's blood
• Providing overheal to xenomorphs

What makes gorger completely different from other xenomorphs is that the caste can take a lot of damage from marines. That said, this is not to say you can reliably rambo alone against marines without your fellow xenomorphs helping you out. Marines are capable of killing you, so you must have a way to escape safely so that you can recover from being swiss cheese.

To enable you to withstand marines' punishment, Overheal protects you from marines before your health and sunder start to get hit. You gain overheal from Drain, which roots marines for 4 seconds. You can give xenomorphs overheal with Transfusion if they are in full health.

You gain blood from Drain, whether alive OR dead marines! If there are more than one gorger, they can wombo combo a marine to get their blood. Note that this does not take actual blood for marines, so marines can rest assure that they don't die from hypoxia, or oxygen damage due to low blood.

Protect other xenomorphs by giving them overheal.

Some dead marines will have enough blood for you to drain.

Maturity Statistics and Evolution Paths

Maturity increases stats as follows.

• Slash is the melee damage when the xenomorph is in harm intent and slashing marine. In the code, it's melee_damage.
• Melee, bullet, laser, energy, bomb, bio, rad, fire, and acid are soft armor values, not hard armor, which means that they reduce damage by a percentage rather than a flat value.

Age	Health	Blood	Overheal	Slash	Melee	Bullet	Laser	Energy	Bomb	Bio	Rad	Fire	Acid
Young	400	200	200	15	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5
Mature	450	250	225	15	17	10	10	10	10	10	10	10	10

Gorger Abilities

Ability	Description	Plasma Cost	Cooldown
Toggle Bump Attacks	Allows you to toggle bump attacks on and off. This allows you to slash any enemy creature by running into them. The red arrow means it's on, you attack when on HARM intent; the green arrow means it's off, you push when on HARM intent.	N/A	N/A
Rest	Used to rest and get up. You heal faster when resting on weeds.	N/A	2 seconds
Psy Drain	This ability is used on dead Marines. For every Marine's psyche drained, the Hive will gain between 30 and 90 psychic points, depending on the number of Marines spawned; and 1/8 of a larva.	50	N/A
Devour	Vore a marine for transportation, can't eat revivable corpses	0	N/A
Psychic Link	Channel and link to another xenomorph. When linked, you rest and take 50% of their damage. The link persists until you unrest, get too hurt or your partner moves too far away.	0	50 seconds
Drain	Hold a marine in place and deal small damage over 2 seconds, gaining 80 blood and overheal over time, not instant! The marine can still shoot/do stuff during the duration and after the ability is broken it staggers them slightly. You also can't slash while performing this. If cast on a non-revivable human, restores health at a faster rate than resting and sunder at normal rate, without granting blood. This uses the corpse's blood and you can only drain corpses which have sufficient blood. Details: Deals 2x4 damage to head. If target is corpse, heals HP at 2.2 normal rate. Also heals sunder by 2.5 per tick. If target is alive, regens 2xP blood. P=20 if young/mature, 30 if elder and 40 if ancient.	0	15 seconds
Transfusion	Costs blood and restores 30% of max health or grants overheal for full health	20 blood	2 seconds
Carnage	You gain movement speed and heal on your next attack, scaling with missing blood. If your blood is below 60%, you also knockdown your victim for 1 sec, and drain (25/30/35/40) blood, during which you can't move.	0	15 seconds
Feast	Drains blood each tick (around 20) and restores 8% health, overheal at 50% efficiency when on full health, until no blood is left or cancelled early. Carnage also heals nearby xenos	200 blood	180 sec

Primordial Evolution

Once the hive has enough psychic points, your queen has the option to unlock powerful primordial evolutions for each strain. Primordial evolutions grant additional abilities for the relevant class.
For the Gorger, this primordial ability is Rejuvenate.

Ability	Description	Plasma Cost	Cooldown
Rejuvenate	Drains blood continuosly, slows you down and reduces damage taken, while restoring health over time.	0	4 seconds
