Statistics and Evolution Paths

The Puppeteer can evolve into a Widow or Warlock.

• 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.
• Speed is calculated inversely, meaning the lower speed value you have, the faster you are. Xenomorphs are always running, meaning they have a -1.0 boost added to their base speed. (Chart displays running speed)
• Puppeteer is one of the few caste that undergoes stat changes for its primordial upgrade. It also receives new abilities for becoming primo, making it truly a standout caste.
