Revision as of 04:50, 25 June 2008
Description
Need to double check the description of the Arachnos Flier. I added the description of the one that is seen during a low level mission that does not attack. - Snorii 07:41, 3 July 2006 (PDT)
- Currently, the description you get when you bring up the info on the Flier is the same as the one for drones and the Arachnos Cruise Missile. I'm pretty sure that's a bug, though. -- Eabrace 16:15, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
Patch Watchlist
This was supposed to have been fixed in the latest patch, but there are still questions about whether it is spawning correctly on Live. So, for now, I suggest it be left on the watchlist. - Sister Leortha 12:47, 17 August 2006 (PDT)
Transport
I'm THIS close to being completely certain this thing never cons as a Giant Monster, but that it ALWAYS cons as Transport. I think this change was made int he Issue 9 era, but I'm not sure. --GuyPerfect 02:00, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
- I've never seen it in GV, so I can't comment, but in MI it is only ever a Transport. Kalon 02:51, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
- Well, I have distinct memories of it conning as Giant Monster in Mercy. But they changed that. And I saw it in Grandville the other day, but didn't pay closest attention. I'm THIS close to sure it was a Transport. --GuyPerfect 12:46, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
Statesman's Task Force
I assume that the Arachnos Flier in STF is scaled down to a Monster. Is this correct? - Snorii 10:56, 22 October 2007 (EDT)
Additional Info
Notes from info I'm currently compiling:
- There are at least three versions of the Flier: Alpha, Beta, Gamma
- I suspect (but have not yet seen) a fourth version of the Flier: Delta
- The hangar the Flier spawns from is located just above the SG base portal. When the Flier spawns, you can see the beam from its search light protruding from the hangar before the Flier exits the red energy doors/windows on the hangar (but you can't see inside to view the Flier.) The Flier exits headed directly for its first waypoint.
- Each Flier follows a flight plan that includes four waypoints.
- The first waypoint for each Flier is SE of the central tower.
- The second waypoint for each Flier is SW of the central tower.
- The third waypoint for each Flier is NE of the central tower.
- The fourth waypoint is either randomly selected from a set of possible locations or is dependent on the Flier version.
- Exit point from the map appears to be tied to the fourth waypoint location.
- While flying from fourth waypoint to zone exit, the Flier does not raise its shield and is still vulnerable.
- Need to get the names of the attacks the Flier responds with: one from laser cannon on nose, one missile swarm similar to the one employed by Malta Titans.
- In addition to the Bane Spiders, the Flier also summons Arachnos Cruise Missiles when attacked.
