Skills and Behavior

This Lunar Chimera walks and slides around the map, usually using the slide to get closer to its target.

Any single instance of damage that deals more than 50% of the Lunar Chimera's total health will stun it and interrupt its attacks or movement.

Primary: Twinshot Attack

The Lunar Chimera charges his cannons for 3 seconds and then fires 10 explosive balls at 0.15s intervals. Both timings scale with attack speed. Each projectile moves in wavey pattern at 40m/s and explodes upon impact or after 5 seconds dealing 100% damage with a proc coefficient of 1.0 in a radius of 8m with sweet spot falloff.

The skill has a cooldown of 3 seconds, which starts when the charge up time finishes.

Secondary: Lunar Shell

Note: This content is not functioning within the game.

Bright light flashes surround the Lunar Golem which then make it glow light blue and 4 shields appear rotating around it similar to Rose Buckler.png Rose Buckler'sBgUncommon.pngRose Buckler.pngRose Buckler

effect. This is an unused buff called Lunar Shell, which caps any incoming instance of damage to 10% of the holder's max health.

This skill has a cooldown of 30 seconds, which does not start for 2.4 seconds since its activation. This duration scales with attack speed.

Behaviors

  1. Use primary and strafe: the Lunar Chimera must be within 80m from its target. The skill is not necessary to be off cooldown and the behavior lasts for 3 seconds.
  2. Use primary and chase: the Lunar Chimera must be within 80-125m from its target and have line of sight. The skill is not necessary to be off cooldown and the behavior lasts for 1 second.
  3. Chase: the Lunar Chimera must be within 125m from its target.
  4. Chase running: the Lunar Chimera must be more than 80m from its target.

Notes

  • The Lunar Chimera has a sprinting coefficient of 3.0, which makes it move very fast when it approaches the player from afar. Coupled with the Status AffixLunar.png PerfectedStatus AffixLunar.pngPerfected (Affix Buff)

Lore

Your completions of my designs are uneasy, brother. Let me show you their purpose.

We begin with stone, silver, and fire. Take note of the ratios.

High speed. Speed is war. 

Twin cannons – with twin exhausts. We stream their exhausts, for volatility.

Quadrupeds are easier, and more stable. We maintain that.

And that, dear brother, is it. No dance. No song. These guardians do not need soul.

Trivia

  • As the name of the monster suggests, the Lunar Chimera may be a combination of two or more different monsters. It bears a resemblance to both the Stone Golem.png Stone GolemStone Golem.pngStone Golem
    HP: 480 (+144 per level)
    Damage: 20 (+4 per level)
    Class: Ranged / Melee
    Speed: 6.6 m/s
    Armor: 0
    and the Temple Guard.
    • The Temple Guard is a monster featured in the original Risk of Rain. It is notably quadrupedal, with cannons extending from either side of its torso.
      • Coincidentally, similar to how Lunar Chimera spawn during phases of the final boss in Risk of Rain 2, a variant of the Temple Guard named the Sanctuary Guard will spawn during the final phase of the final boss in the original Risk of Rain.
    • Prior to the anniversary update, the Lunar Chimera had a carved eye similar to the Stone Golem.png Stone GolemStone Golem.pngStone Golem

      . Now it doesn't have an eye at all.
  • In the game's credits, a drawing of an item named "Moon Golem's Heart" appears. It is possible that this was intended to be item related to the Lunar Chimera, although this is speculation.
