The Shrike
Shrike Rundown
It seems you have decided to go shrike, either through free will or because the hive needed a ruler and you were there only option. Long story short: YOU ARE NOT THE QUEEN. DO NOT THINK YOU ARE INVINCIBLE. Seriously, don't. You are a support caste and should not be spearheading the xeno charge. However, your fling does provide a good stun against one marine, making you an excellent duelist.
Playing the Shrike
So, seems that you have become the shrike, but what do you do now?
First steps:
- Turn on your pheromones to either recovery, a typically non-combat pheromone, or the warding and frenzy pheromones which increase combat performance of you and your fellow xenos
- Use your Call Burrowed ability regularily, as it allows dead players to respawn at your feet as burrowed larva. Use only while you are safe as larva can easily die
Now that thats done, what should I be doing? Go help support your fellow xenos at the front line with healing and through the use of your abilities "Fling" and "Devastating Force". As you are more of a support caste marines will be especially eager to kill you. Do note you should not try to take on marines on your own, as you do not do much damage and your abilities are perfect for opening opportunities for your allies.
Tips & Tricks
- Don't tank shots, you are meant as a support caste.
- Hint: Grenades are considered items
- Sometimes it's better to save psychic cure to save sisters that get into trouble than waste it for a quick heal
Evolution & Upgrades
The Shrike is a Tier 3 and can evolve into a queen if there are more than 8 xenos in the hive. Upgraded growth levels will increase your health, armor, slash damage, movement speed, plasma pool, and plasma regeneration rate.
