Also known as "OH GOD MECHATREESPIDERS: A Dramatization" or "The Reason I Make Someone Else Do The Art For My Comics" THE PREFACE So a friend (a tanky-powertech) and I (a healy-sorc) notice this Champion-level mob on Taris, it's a huge mechanical spider droid at the Reclamation Camp. We cleared out his Strong-level Republic soldier buddies so that we wouldn't be fighting them alongside him, and then my buddy stops for a minute to bio. He comes back, and as we start to pull Daddy Explodeylegs, his buddies start backspawning behind us. So the tank taunts the droid and start gunning it out of there, so that it'll go out of range for its abilities and chase us. THE WEIRDNESS So this 10-meter-tall spider droid is chasing us through this canyon, and it decides it's not going to follow in a straight path once we get it moving. Instead, it kind of moves along in this weird arc, taking potshots at the tank, and as it's moving along, there's this big tree in its way. We're not talking quite as tall as the droid itself, a decent-sized tree, but physically incapable of supporting such a thing. Too bad Star Wars Phyzaks are different, cause its pathing program glitched right out and planted it on top of the tree. THE TERROR So now this giant spider droid is IN the tree, up at the top, kinda hidden and parts of it sticking out like a cosmic horror being birthed from the planet. It's still shooting the tank, and not only can he not melee it (because it is more than 4 meters in the air, apparently) but it's also at the edge of most of his abilities' range (10m, generally) so he can't kite it, or run, or anything. I'm slinging lightning and keeping him healed, it's not a THREAT per se, but it's damn freaky. THE GIBBERING So obviously, just because WE are not freaked out, does not mean our CHARACTERS are not freaked out. I'm thinking permanent mental trauma.
