What is this and why can't we fight it?

Yeah, it's an enemy type from singleplayer that's been suggested quite a few times to be added instead of Fiends. They only show up based on a choice in story mode but they're really a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. At least, they weren't a problem on Insanity.

We actually could fight it. There was an Apex sometime ago. In Wave 6 it was one of the targets.
It's a by the kett indoctrinated krogan.

Oh that one? I never got a good look of him, because bronze.

They should add it back, we really need more content like enemies, weapons, kits etc.

This instead of Fiends? I dunno. With Fiends you just gotta stay away the fuck away; but this thing shoots you and spam nades like the mods on prime BSN spammed warning points close to nuke-day. And it was just as bullet spongy if I remember correctly, so... eehhhh. Kett are fine as they are currently, they add this thing and the super fragile balance is gonna go to the airlock for the only balanced faction in the game.

If they kept it as-is, it probably wouldn't be a good idea. At the time he was a bronze mission and the 4th target on the wave 6 objective, so you only had 1.5 mins to kill him. Kind of just cheapens the experience if everyone has to resort to rockets to kill him. If they do re-release it, they should just make him the sole objective for a round.

It was on a lolbronze APEX mission that was early in the game. It was disappointing, to say the least. First time I played the mission, I didn't even see it. It was the final target on wave 6 assassination. The only time you could actually fight it was if you ran with a premade team since PuGs would nuke it from orbit with cobras.

I'd rather the MP team just said "fuck the lore" and put these guys in as a random assassination target, if not a boss unit. 4 Ascendants as targets just sucks. Them being limited to APEX missions really sucks the fun out of fighting them since you we never know when they'll be back. At this point I'd rather deal with their giant-ass health bars than deal with teleporting, sync-killing Fiends or Ascendant Orbs any day.

It's the new T-1000. It can make soup and stabbing weapons.

It's pretty much the most idiotic thing in the world that they don't just add that shit to regular rotation. same with the remnant vault. how long was it until they added Paradox to the rotation? Why is bioware so badly fucking this up?

And now I'm really worried!

Just what kind of multiplayer game is this?

The one with the AWESOME ROMANTIC JETPACKS!!   

I wouldn't mind fighting behemoths in MP. It's stupid that they haven't added them to the kett faction.
