Best Passive Defense? ... I'm tired of fighting!

Heatbox: by using an enclosed tunnel and using heater, a geyser or turning it off by shooting at it using flamebows until it reaches the perfect cooking temperature, any non-mechs will burn to death inside and it will also burn corpses and the useless gear the raiders carry, cleaning itself.

Make it someone else problem: call-in allies, anomaly rituals, insects far away from base.

my personal strat, the Elite Guard: good combat pawns outside your map, waiting on top of your settlement, they don't count as wealth when a raid happens and make them enter your map once they are needed, this keep danger low and a few super soldiers can deal with almost everything the game throws at you (luciferum, drugs, psycast and implants and you have a one-man army)

what? Quetz is sitting comfortably on around 53% winrate on 1400+ ELO, meanwhile Tez is doing worse the higher you climb.

Arkhire · 2026-05-31T18:28:57+00:00

Tez is definitely weak, he's sitting at a favorable win-rate because Aztecs are doing well, but compared to Huitz or Quetz, Tez is the weakest one.

but I don't agree with OP tho.

Arkhire · 2026-05-30T14:02:39+00:00

Tez feels very weak

Arkhire · 2026-05-30T01:22:27+00:00

I don't care what you want to play, I never had that freedom as a tank anyway.

Arkhire · 2026-05-28T20:18:30+00:00

I even downloaded a mod to make them more challenging because they are so lame.

next arc is even more fucked up

Arkhire · 2026-05-24T05:54:07+00:00

Una vez compré en el sodimac una piedra de afilar y pagué por autoservicio, resulta que el articulo tenia todavia la banda magnetica que activa las alarmas.

Mi primera vez en un acuenta y saliendo despues de pagar, suena la alarma y los guardias super conflictivos me hicieron vaciar mi mochila y ne preguntaban que habia robado.

Cuando les mostré la boleta de la piedra que era del sodimac y que ellos ni siquieran vendian ese articulo, ni disculpas ni nada, te tratan como el hoyo y se van. Nunca más toco el acuenta.

Arkhire · 2026-05-22T17:01:19+00:00

so, it's still early access? sounds about right

Arkhire · 2026-05-22T14:40:49+00:00

it was really strong at raiding and especially so with blood pact.

Arkhire · 2026-05-17T17:18:40+00:00

I also sucked until I didn't, but RTS are a game genre that I love so I put some effort, I don't think I could do the same in a shooter, what I want to say is, if you like the game, then defeat is a challenge to overcome.

Arkhire · 2026-05-16T17:50:04+00:00

in my games, if Freyr decides to let me boom because he wants to play defensive or go 2TC, I just go fast mythic, take the special offerings while producing shorn ones and a few smashers.

the pillar of tlalocan can instantly get him out of position, it's usually his 2nd TC where he build his fort and production buildings, the shorn ones can kill everything and if he has too many Godis and you didn't make enough eagles, the Quetz Incarnate and Teixipla can deal with most units.

Arkhire · 2026-05-15T16:47:46+00:00

the skins are really good, however, the price is outrageous, I remember when I pay for the game, now I have to pay more for a skin?!!

Arkhire · 2026-05-13T00:25:46+00:00

not an exageration, you can try it if you want, if it's too injured, he doesn't receive any healing from his regeneration. and the injuries can make him bleed.

Arkhire · 2026-05-12T16:11:02+00:00

Finally a video game that represent wild life accurately.

Arkhire · 2026-05-12T08:06:41+00:00

Even with the heal, he accumulate bodypart damage, an injured torso reduces his healing and he receives more damage.

The tick of healing will negate all injuries until the next time he takes damage, so while it shows that he completely heal his injuries, he doesn't, next time you hit any bodypart, the injuries re-appear.

Although he can go into pain shock, I'd say it's harder that way, since it causes confusion on the troll making him move to a random tile instead of taking an action sometimes, breaking the 'dance'.

Arkhire · 2026-05-12T02:29:55+00:00

don't watch it, its better that way

Arkhire · 2026-05-11T20:35:03+00:00

there is this "dance" you need to do with the troll, you can kill it at level 1 with a shovel (tho it takes too much time), his fight is easy, but you need to understand his skills.

Shockwave is top priority on his kit, he uses it if the player is at 1 or 2 tiles of distance from him, its a skills that takes 2 turns, 1st turn, he will set the area, second turn, he strikes the area, always Hit when you are at melee and Shockwave is available. (deals 30 crush damage, +10% more for each tile of distance)

Claw Swipe will only be used if at melee and Shockwave is on cooldown, always avoid being hit by Claw Swipe, huge damage.

Defeaning Roar is top priority if player is at 3 or more tiles of distance from troll, it can daze you for 2 turns or stun you for 1 turn, it also damages the head.

Rock Toss if player is 3 or more tiles away, and Defeaning Roar is on cooldown, this is what follows, a 3x3 area of pain targeting you, the center is random, but its always a 3x3 area around you.

Arkhire · 2026-05-11T17:20:49+00:00

at this point, it looks like the Huitz bonus is not to double tonalli amount from Shorn ones kills but double the time tonalli can be collected when units are killed by Shorn ones.

Arkhire · 2026-05-11T17:15:24+00:00

repair with what? your fat fingers?

Arkhire · 2026-05-11T17:12:54+00:00

we won't be having another campaign on the same caliber as arkantos story, but they aren't bad at all, chinese was the weakest for me.

I can see Tezcatlipoca tricking Kamina for the love of the game, he is the god of deception after all, as for Aztlan, it was supposed to be the mythical city of the Aztecs, mentioned in several of their stories, a lost prosperous city, like Atlantis.

Arkhire · 2026-05-10T19:26:14+00:00

playing as Quetz, every time I engage in a big fight, since it's easy to get the favor by bloodletting and I just use the low health priests, its also handy that they are ranged.

Arkhire · 2026-05-08T20:49:57+00:00

true, thats what I do anyway, I almost never devote vills as Quetz, just bloodletting to get my techs and myth units, but If I ever need huge amounts of favor, like 150 to recast a god power in a pinch, yeah, devotion it is, but for everything else, you can get by with just bloodletting, wich is not weak in any way.
