Riot shields can deflect almost any projectile in the game,but you need to have RNJesus in your side,Sentinels have quite low health and have a delay for spitting,neurotoxin is a short ranged stun,so when he spits at you,just run in his direction before he can spit again. Just don't do that with elite/ancient sentinels,because you will get cucked.

Shields can deflect almost any projectile in the game,but it's a VERY small chance that RNJesus will want to assist you.

Sentinels are slow and have quite low health,2 buckshots should be enough to kill a elite sentinel.

They have a delay,take 50 plasma per each shot (as young),so just pointblank the living light out of it when it rans out of plasma

And neurotoxin is a SHORT ranged stun,and shields have the bigger chance of delfecting when you are closer to the aggressor,so if your manage to delfect at least one neuro spit,you should make this sentinel in crit or heavily injured (with buckshot)

I was once part of the predator fight club where 6 of us had to fight an opponent (leaving three of us, myself included) and then we were given some predator armour and sent off to kill a xeno with a melee weapon. I lasted roughly five seconds before getting facehugged and decapped. The other two died shortly after.

I was a SADAR specI know this is wrong... but a baldie shot me in the head and ran away when I scream at him... I went back up to sulaco for surgery.

After surgery, I head back down and head to the frontline. During the frontline I saw a prae upclose and a bunch of marine next to me... it was open at the prae so I grab my SADAR(AP in it) and shoot the prae... the baldie marine got infront and his body went gibbed. That baldie marine was the one who shot me in the head with AP rounds that almost got me nearly dead.

Holding Alpha Town on the western flank of WO with three other people. In the end, the aliens stormed us 4, two died, I ran south and a hunter ambushed me a minute later and killed me, but it took me awhile to die because I was wearing B18, and Pedro faked his death and got killed a minute after me. We were the last surviving marines. So, I think that qualifies as robust.

I was a survivor once, and I tool-boxed at least 4 runners to death while defending 2 crit survivors inside the sec office... they showed us no mercy, and they received none. By the time muhreens arrived Nexus was xeno free, I assume because 4 dead runners is a bit daunting with only a toolbox. I then murdered the WU rep with the same toolbox when he tried to loyalty implant me... completely justified of course. :devil:

One time, I got FF'd, and didn't die immediately or turn around and empty my clip into the offender.

I once slipped on a banana, cursed wildly, and was dragged into the dark screaming like a little girl. All in all pretty impressive if you ask me.

Playing doctor.
Helps people and shit, then the rasp comes up and xenos pour out. Xenos come up main ladder and shit starts coming near medbay.
Goes downstairs. Sees runner in research and big xenos coming down ladder, no pistols, grabs defib and smashes runner while dodging attacks and hiding in locker before pounce. Kills runner with defib, runs down main hallway only to get boilergassed and ROFLstomped by a ravager.

Whenever I get to slice a xeno with my bootknife is considered a robust moment for me.

Bonus points if I manage to kill them with my bootknife, like that one time I shanked a Praetorian from healthy to dead. Sure, I died later, but hey, it was worth it!

I killed 4 xenos as they tried pain critting me so I wouldn't be a nuisance to them before bursting, me, Rocco, and Ambrose (a fellow Bravo member to Rocco, the Bravo Engineer) died before we could contact the other. The dark haired Charlie member in the river is me, the blonde Bravo member is Rocco. Ambrose unfortunately wasn't as lucky, he bursted near the the dam (the lineup of reinforced walls with grilles on each side) Here's the image : Image

Happened Thursday night during a lower population round (50ish).

Boarded rasp with 2 other marinea after Queen started the launch. Only the upper portion of the rasp was weeded. Queen barges in and roars, drags one off to hug, copious slashes for me and the other one. We get up and start firing at the little xenos from the doors (no t3s present, only queen and one or two others), killing them off the weeds. Other living marine goes to flank the queen taking cover by the cockpit, but the queen rushes at me. I fire in a panic, get enough hits in to make the queen rethink the approach and limp back to the weeds. She goes down shortly after, praise be extended barrels.

Marine victory, other marine starts being lewd in celebration.
Rasp landed in the ladders, just to the left of where it normally docks. We drag the critical marine up the ladders, but we all collapse at the top.

Only time I've ever been robust to any notable degree.

Was a while ago, but I saved an entire frontline squad from ayyliums with a machete as medic. Stopped at least two marines from being dragged off.

Never gonna happen again.

I was nested in the dark without any lights weapons or armor and was able to bust out of the nest and run around center nexus. A runner, hunter, and spitter all tried to keep me down. As I ran in circles I picked up knives and empty rifles to bash them with. As I was tackled and lost my items I kept having to pick them up. Eventually I picked up a pulse rifle and a magazine and loaded it all while dodging these 3 xenos in an enclosed space. After some burst fire they all ran away and I was able to wander out into LV in the complete darkness by myself. As I tried to figure how I could save the marine captured with me and find some light source I bursted.

Of course this all happened after I spent the round hanging out in a lounge I built in the shower room in nexus getting drunk and singing along to the music being played to rally the troops.

I doubt it was robustness so much as unprepared xenos but normally when I try to break out of a nest my legs don't work or I get stopped as I get up so I take it as a major victory.

The riot shields block chance is 1/5, and usually when I'm dealing with sentinels, they're much faster on and off weeds. The neurotoxin projectile is also equal to buckshot, but because buckshot has a stun range within 2 tiles, with it also being rather short, the sentinel takes the advantage.
