Skills & Behavior

Primary: Supercharged Shot

This is a buffed up version of the Solus Control Unit's primary attack. It launches 12 orbs in an arc of 60 degrees, within a span of 1 second (scales with attack speed) and each orb travels at 90 m/s. Each addition, each orb upon impact leaves a small circle that pulses 3 times per second for 6 seconds and slows down the target50% Slow (Debuff)
Reduces movement speed by 50% (in practice, 33.3%).. These lingering circles can also be destroyed by Captain's Defensive MicrobotsDefensive Microbots (Passive)Passively gain Microbots that shoot down nearby enemy projectiles. Drones are also given Microbots.
Survivor: Captain.

Each pulse deals 10% per tick and has a proc coefficient of 0.2.

Utility: Probe Launch

This is exactly the same as the Solus Control Unit's utility attack.

Special: Supercharged Detonation

This is a buffed up version of the Solus Control Unit's special attack, but with 3 large circles, each placed within a 30m radius of each target. In addition, the Alloy Worship Unit will gain shields for 100% of its max health for 6 seconds.

Behaviors

The Alloy Worship Unit exhibits exactly the same behaviors as the Solus Control Unit, with the only difference that the special can be used if the Alloy Worship Unit has fallen below 50% health.

Tips

• Players should stay off the ground for most of the fight, due to the large area that the Alloy Worship Unit can cover with its attacks.
• Destroy Solus ProbesSolus Probe

  Damage: 15 (+3 per level)
  Class: Ranged
  Speed: 10 m/s
  Armor: 10 shortly after they spawn so they do not become a large problem during the fight.
• Do not underestimate the damage of the Supercharged Shot. It can instantly kill even a high HP player if multiple orbs hit.
  • For melee characters such as MercenaryMercenaryThe Mercenary is a high skill melee survivor that uses his many dodges to weave in and out of combat.

    Armor: 20
    Umbra: Bionic Powerhouse, this attack can be extra dangerous due to the close range of the boss. Be careful when standing on top of the Alloy Worship Unit, as it can prove fatal if the player is caught off-guard.
• Mercenary can knock the Alloy Worship Unit into terrain using Blinding AssaultBlinding Assault (Utility)Stunning. Dash forward, dealing 300% damage. If you hit an enemy, you can dash again, up to 3 total.
  Survivor: Mercenary, dealing severe damage. As of the 1.0 update, this has become more challenging but is still possible.
• Using the pillar at the middle of map, REXREXREX is a half robot / half plant that uses HP to cast devastating skills from a distance. The plant nor the robot could survive this planet alone – but thankfully they have each other.
  HP: 130 (+39 per level)
  Damage: 12 (+2.4 per level)
  Armor: 20
  Umbra: Symbiotes can deal heavy damage by attaching Tangling GrowthTangling Growth (Special)25% HP. Fire a flower that roots for 200% damage. Heals for every target hit.
  Survivor: REX to the pillar while the Alloy Worship Unit is on the other side. If the Worship Unit is close, Tangling Growth will pull it in and smash it against the pillar.
  • The same effect can be accomplished by using DIRECTIVE: DisperseDIRECTIVE: Disperse (Utility)Fire a Sonic Boom that Weaken all enemies hit.
    Survivor: REX or Bramble VolleyBramble Volley (Utility)20% HP. Fire a Sonic Boom that damages enemies for 550% damage. Heals for every target hit.
    Survivor: REX to push the Worship Unit into terrain, though this is more difficult.
• Because players are slowed while the Supercharged Detonation attack charges, it is strongly recommended to save a movement ability for dodging it. An alternative is to jump high enough to not get hit, provided the player has jump-boosting items.
• Players without meaningful on-hit effects, such as healing or BleedBleed (Debuff)
  Damage over time.Deals 240% damage over time [3 x proc coefficient] (20% per tick, 4 ticks per second).

Notes

• Upon defeat, the Alloy Worship Unit will drop a legendary item for each player in the game around the central pillar. The item dropped will be the same for all players. This can be interpreted as the guaranteed legendary item for Siren's Call, as the other Stage 4 levels Abyssal Depths, Sundered Grove, and Conduit Canyon have guaranteed spawn points for a Legendary Chest: under some rocks near the center of the map on Abyssal Depths, somewhere around the map indicated by glowing mushrooms on Sundered Grove, and on the right side of one of the ships in the first section of Conduit Canyon.
• Though the boss will show up in the list of objectives for the stage, defeating the Alloy Worship Unit is not required to access the Teleporter.

Trivia

• The name of this enemy seems to be in reference to the Alloy Vultures, since it is summoned by the destruction of their nests, has Alloy in its name, and its title is the 'Friend of Vultures.' This is further supported by its Lore entry, insinuating that something (almost definitely the Alloy Vultures) decorated and repaired the Alloy Worship Unit prior to becoming what it is currently, hence the name “Alloy Worship Unit” as it was worshipped by the Alloy Vultures.
