Using the shockwave to push enemies into this if you can is a good idea. Enemies can still move around a little, but only inside of the sphere of influence of the flower. Again, “root” is kind of a misleading term - it’s more of a tether. Fires a flower that roots for 200% damage. Ultimate (R, “ult”): Tangling Growth: Costs 25% of your current health. Pushes you backwards if you are airborne.” I don’t use this a whole lot, but it’s very good for increasing the distance between you and enemies or, better yet, pushing them all together so you can hit them all with one big attack. Utility (Shift): DIRECTIVE: Disperse – “Fire a sonic boom that pushes and Weakens all enemies hit. Not… not like RoR1 Sniper, your damage ain’t quite that high, but you know what I mean. Seed Barrage has a ridiculous range, by the way, so it’s not a bad idea to get into a position and play sniper. REX have a surprising amount of sustain despite hurting themselves constantly. So it’s kind of an actual barrage.ġ5% of your current HP sounds intimidating, but it’s not horrible with some recovery items - this self-damage procs on-damage effects for items like Medkit and Brittle Crown - and with the effects of your healing skills. Importantly, Seed Barrage does a ton of damage, and its low cooldown (a second or less!) makes it incredibly spammable. This ignores ceilings and stuff, otherwise it would probably be useless on stage 4. You target an area and a thing drops out of the sky and explodes on that. Launch a mortar into the sky for 450% damage.” Well, “mortar” is misleading. Secondary (M2): Seed Barrage – “Costs 15% of your current health. If all you want to do is land the debuff, keep this in mind. Note that the three syringe shots fan out slightly in a horizontal line, so the second syringe goes right down the middle of your aim, while the first is slightly to the left and the second is slightly to the right. I thought you couldn’t hold the mouse button to get a refire rate at first, it’s that bad.

However, your primary is pretty good, but the refire rate is abysmal. The last syirnge Weakens and heals for 30% of damage dealt.” This actually might not be your bread and butter depending on how you build, not unlike the Artificer, who often has to juggle all her skills early on due to running out of fire blasts. Primary (M1): DIRECTIVE: Inject – “Fires 3 syringes for 3×80% damage. The challenge to unlock these little guys? Well worth it. Overall, REX form a strong, versatile character that can fit into almost any team build, with different needs from a lot of other characters (thus making them easier to fit them into teams). Alternately, you can use your skills to set this up for you because they can help move enemies around, then spam your secondary for lots of DPS.

If someone gets a bunch of enemies into a group for you (or, say, everything goes after an Engineer’s turret - less common in RoR2 than the original, I’ve found, but still a possibility), you can set up for some huge damage potential. REX’s primary talent as fighters is in dealing with tightly packed enemies due to their secondary and ultimate skills both affecting an AoE (the ult is pretty big your secondary, less so). This also helps to offset the HP cost of two of their abilities, as well.

This gives REX the feel of a support character, but REX can carry by themselves thanks to this and their most prominent feature, the ability to heal themselves with several of their attacks. Who doesn’t like to take less damage and deal more in turn? Exactly. You can spread this in a couple of different ways (through your primary and your utility skills), and doing this is a huge boon for your team. REX carry a unique status effect with them called “Weaken,” which reduces enemy’s movement speed, defense and damage for a little bit. This will unlock the achievement and make him a playable Survivor. If you have the Fuel Array you are able to interact with him. You will have to take the jump pads to the upper level and then you will find a robot covered in overgrowth. You are able to find REX on the upper levels of the Abyssal Depths (Zone 4). WARNING: Do not use the Sacrificing Shrine you will end up as minced meat. It also causes you to explode if you take to high a damage percentage or get to low on health. The Fuel Array takes the place of your equipment slot. It’s got a highlighted square that you can interact with displaying the Fuel Array. The first step is to take the Fuel Array located at the back of the drop pod that you land inside of.
