(180 damage direct, 180 damage explosive with 360 radius, extra explosion effects each cause 15 splash so a single meteor can kill an HK usually)

(it will one shot the player on a direct hit, in this screen he was about dead and got radius'd)

One side effect of this is at close range the cyber can totally obliterate alot of monsters. However if he shoots the meteor and you dodge, you can get it to fly into a group of monsters and make it VERY easy to get them all pissed at him.

Maxrange is like 1200 ithink

> also made cyber and spider "bossMonsters" species type and they do not hurt each other anymore, maps where they're supposed to fight - they team up on you instead - and the spider flies now so it will get off its platform on vanilla map20

meh it depends, there are alot of hard mods out there, this one just makes it hard in a believable way and because of damage types some stuff is more effective than others, its not gimmicky and has alot of replay potential

(plasma does "searing" damage and it has a high pain chance against almost everything, so you can stunlock things with it ; same goes for direct hits with rockets, almost everything will faze from that)

The one thing I kinda did err on with an earlier version of it was having the BFG replace the plasma rifle on pickup (you lose the plasma and cant get it back).

I wanted to make weapon switching easier so the BFG does a quick 5 or 10 shot burst as its primary, and the altfire is the standard bfg attack. So its like a plasma rifle but it still locks you into using a certain amount of ammo, cant just pop off 1-2 cells with it.

> but most of what you'd dump plasma into would get hosed normally right?

Also made SSG actually replace Shotgun so you cant use it after you got the SSG. However early iteration of the mod had it fire a tight spread then a wide spread as the second shell so you could still hit longer range if you wanted (it just costs commits you to two shells).
