← ENEMIES·ILLUMINATE·APPROPRIATORS VERACITOR
Constructs piloted by the Illuminate, ever prone to over-engineering. Disassembly effforts confirm that while physically imposing, the Veraticator is in actuality nothing but an overly complicated forklift, rendering further attempts at reverse-engineering unnecessary.
TACTICAL BRIEF
• The cockpit is protected by a rechargeable energy shield, when destroyed, the pilot is vulnerable to gunfire and when killed will also destroy the mech. Unlike normal overseers, the pilot is a unified Light hitbox, so there is no need to aim for particular weakpoints when shooting the pilot.
• Veracitors, like their Gatekeeper sibling enemy, are highly resistant to pure explosive damage, as all limbs are immune to explosive damage.
• The arms of a Veracitor are Medium armor, leaving them vulnerable to the M-1000 Maxigun, MG-43 Machine Gun, or other weapons capable of penetrating medium armor. The RL-77 Airburst Rocket Launcher with its Medium penetrating flak is extremely effective when aimed at the cockpit, due to that area's close proximity and line-of-sight to all of the limbs. Destroying the head of the Veracitor exosuit will permanently disable the shield covering its pilot.
• Destroying the armor surrounding the "head" of this enemy will reveal an Unarmored II weakspot that can be destroyed to destroy the entire enemy. Holding the highground allows you to dispatch the Veracitor with this method even easier.
• The Veracitor features several Unarmored II weakspot blue vents on its body. Destroying these destroy the body part they are attached to. The Cockpit Weakspot however is Fatal, instantly eliminating the Veracitor.
• Anti-tank weaponry such as the EAT-17 and GR-8 Recoilless Rifle should generally target the unshielded parts of the cockpit as it is far easier to hit and eliminate target.
• Unlike other enemies, a patrolling Veracitor can detect and engage Helldivers from 100 meters.
