Quantum Gunners appear in City of Heroes whenever a [[Kheldian]] has been present in the recent past. These Quantum Gunners use specialized [[Quantum Array Gun]]s purchased or given from the [[Council]]. A shot from one of these rifles deals Negative Energy damage to all Archetypes. However when a blast hit's a Kheldian (warshade or peacebringer), they take additional damage 3 and 4 times what regular heroes take. This damage type is classified as Nicti and is unresistable.

Overview

Quantum gunners appear in City of Heroes whenever a Kheldian has been present in the recent past. These Quantum gunners use specialized Quantum Array Guns purchased or received from the Council. A shot from one of these rifles deals Negative Energy damage to all Archetypes. However when a blast hits a Kheldian (Warshade or Peacebringer), they take additional damage 3 and 4 times that of the other Archetypes.

Quantum foes in City of Heroes are not their own faction. Each Quantum enemy is part of the faction it spawns in. They are closely related to Void Hunters.

You can find specific information regarding each Quantum in its faction's article.

Notes

  • A Quantum is always an extra enemy in a spawn above and beyond the normal spawn size; one does not appear in every spawn.
  • A Quantum gunner never moves or wanders around like the rest of their spawn, unless aggroed.
  • Some of them may have other special skills normal for their factions (eg, a Paragon Protector Quantum using Focus during the combat)
  • Quantum gunners never spawn outside of instanced missions; you will never see a Quantum in a city zone, hazard zone, etc.
  • A faction with a Quantum gunner model will not always use the Quantum; it may spawn Void Hunters instead. If a faction does not have a Quantum gunner, it will always do so.

Spawning

Quanta/Voids have a 10% chance to spawn per encounter group on a mission map. There is a 50% chance for a Quantum spawn to be a member of the Void Hunters faction, rather than a Quantum from the appropriate villain group. The rank of the spawned Quantum/Void is determined by the team's size:

  • 1-2 members = 100% chance for Minion
  • 3 members = 30% chance for Lieutenant, 70% chance for Minion
  • 4-5 members = 100% chance for Lieutenant
  • 6 members = 10% chance for Boss, 90% chance for Lieutenant
  • 7 members = 50% chance for Boss, 50% chance for Lieutenant
  • 8 members = 90% chance for Boss, 10% chance for Lieutenant
