SPORE BURST BILE TITAN

• Unlike other Spore Burst Terminids, the Spore Burst Bile Titan does not explode into spores upon death. Instead, its bile-spewing attack leaves spores on the ground that disrupt vision and buff other nearby Spore Burst Terminids. When entering a cloud of spores (created by another Spore Burst Terminid’s death or through the Spore Burst Bile Titan’s bile spew), Spore Burst Terminids will gain a significant increase in speed, allowing them to close the gap on Helldivers. • The Spore Burst Bile Titan deals far less damage than the regular Bile Titan in its spew attack, posing little direct threat in terms of damage. Although Helldivers ragdolled by it will likely be vulnerable to attacks from other Terminids, the Bastion and other vehicles benefit greatly from this reduced damage. • Additionally, its bile-spewing attack has a much higher stagger force, capable of easily ragdolling Helldivers. This can be prevented by wearing armor with the Rock Solid passive. • Spore Burst Bile Titans are slightly more durable than their standard counterpart, with 500 more Main health (7,000 vs 6,500), 1,000 more head health (2,500 vs 1,500) and 250 more bile sac health (750 vs 1,000). This means that the EAT-17 Expendable Anti-Tank and LAS-99 Quasar Cannon will not kill the Spore Burst Bile Titan in a single shot. However, the GR-8 Recoilless Rifle and FAF-14 Spear still will. • Destroying a Spore Burst Bile Titan's sacs is especially important compared to its standard variant, as this prevents it from buffing other nearby Spore Burst Terminids. • With Heavy armor and massive damage, Spore Burst Bile Titans are one of the most dangerous Terminids that Helldivers will face, requiring teamwork and/or strong Stratagems. Helldivers are advised to maintain a safe distance and engage Spore Burst Bile Titans with offensive stratagems. Offensive Stratagems such as the Orbital Railcannon Strike, Orbital Precision Strike, Eagle 110mm Rocket Pods, and Eagle 500kg Bomb are all capable of killing Spore Burst Bile Titans with one use, but this can vary due to positioning. • If available, a Hellpod can deal significant damage to a Spore Burst Bile Titan. The Power Steering module can greatly increase the chances of landing on the Titan, as it can be difficult to land directly on the body or head. Destroying a Spore Burst Bile Titan's sacs will prevent it from using spew attacks, instead engaging Helldivers only with its legs. • Spore Burst Bile Titans are IMMUNE to any stun & confusion effects. However, Gas DoT still affects them. • A Spore Burst Bile Titan's death ragdoll can potentially crush Helldivers underneath it, and its legs may swing around widely, killing Helldivers that come into contact with it, as well as other Terminids including Impalers and Chargers. Ironically, Spore Burst Bile Titan bodies have sufficient demolition force to destroy Bile Titan Bug Holes.
