Nemesis Is A Broken POS

[Dark_Overlord]

Spanws on top of you insta grabs you (bye bye 50% health), throws you off then insta grabs you again to kill you.

 

Take cover the bestiary says...  well I would but this fucker can grab you through walls.

 

So many ruined runs due to this broken POS

So, you're saying he's properly named?

No, a certain word beginning with C is more appropriate

Hey it looks like we have the same nickname for our old buddy Nemesis. ?

The PC version has been patched a few times since Season 2 came out over there and given the Nemesis a a major rework so hopefully these fixes will make it to the PS4/5 soon :

 

- Increased the time it takes for a Rival Nemesis tentacle to see you until it starts grabbing
- Decreased the size of the area you have to get outside to escape the grab of the Nemesis slightly
- Reduced how quickly the Nemesis sheds heat to improve direct heat weapon viability
- Tweaked the range at which the Nemesis will try to grab you to be more consistent
- Fixed bug with the Nemesis igniting too quickly from Incendiary Grenades, Sticky Flames and other heat sources.

- Extended the cooldown for Nemesis spawn a bit
- Rival Nemesis now only gets alerted when it sees the players or takes damage
- Fixed Nemesis being able to grab hacking pod
- Fixed Nemesis being able to grab Hack-C (and the hacking pod)
- Fixed issue where the Nemesis had a much higher chance to spawn repeatedly in Rival Incursions than what was intended

- Reduced the chance of multiple Nemeses spawning in a row and scaled it based on team size
- Fixed the spawn effects and sound for the Nemesis
- Extended the delay between when a Nemesis spawns and when it can attack giving players more time to relocate
- The Nemesis should now consistently die when set on fire
- Made the Nemesis a little less aggressive on low hazards

- Fixed typo in Bestiary (Nemesis)

 

I think some of these made it into our 1.12 patch that introduced Season 2 but I'm not sure.

I've not seen him once since the patch dropped yesterday,  I'll take that as 'fixing' it

 

EDIT - Just encountered him 3 times in 1 Elimination mission, wow just wow, he's no threat at all now.  Killed all 3 without even getting hit.
