Overview

The Void Hunters are a special mercenary group created by the Council of Nictus to combat the growing Peacebringer/Warshade threat currently growing in Paragon City. The Council have been hiring them out to other groups to help deal with their Kheldian enemies, as well as to make a slight profit. For those who don't want to deal with the Council's mercenaries, they sell Quantum Array Guns, thus creating the "Quantum Faction" to each villain group.

Void Hunters

Void Hunters have received special training, Nictus fragment implants, and weapons that are particularly effective against Kheldians. The Nictus fragment implants give them high resistance to Kheldian energy blasts. Higher ranked Voids have been implanted with so many Nictus fragments that they can even absorb both energy and negative blast energy blasts. They are a threat to both Kheldians and non-Kheldians alike. However their weapons use a special quantum wavelength, designed specifically to disrupt the energies that make up a Kheldian. This forcibly rips Kheldians and their host apart. The damage can be healed over time, but too much of this can rip a Peacebringer or Warshade apart; killing them. This is a Void Hunters goal.

Notes

Due to the second Rikti invasion, the Rikti are now hostile to all other enemy groups, including the Void Hunters. If a Void Hunter spawns within a group of Rikti, the Rikti will turn on the lone Void Hunter, and more often than not, the Void Hunter will fall before the Kheldian players approach the mob.
