Talk:Colossus

Helmet Issues
I always wondered, why do Colossi have exposed mouths and chins? No other Cabal unit has that (discrediting Psions). If anything, that gives them less protection! It's weird!


 * Developer oversight, or Cabal are quite hardy. Look at Ghaul, walking around in an atmosphere with just a facemask. -- 14:32, 8 December 2017 (EST)


 * I wouldn't quite say "yes" to the first one Dante. Colossi do have mouth animations plus expressions for when they are firing, laughing after they kill, and a a scream of anguish as they're getting shot down so I don't think Developer Oversight is a problem here. Maybe a Cabal code is "The more powerful you are, the less armor you can wear to show you can take a beating." Perhaps that's why the Loyalists have little to no armor. (See the Ceremonial Bathers; yuck.) As they see themselves as still the strongest Cabal force out there thanks to their Eater of Worlds. ---Vigil the Ghost (Talk)


 * We all know Cabal do not breathe oxygen. Therefore Colossi(non-Red Legion) must receive whatever Cabal breathe from their black oil. They don't need a facemask because they get what they need from the helmet, somehow. The oil MUST go to the helmet because, as evidenced by Cabal headshot kills, when the helmet comes off, it has nowhere else to go. Ghaul wears a facemask, but no helmet, and Colossi wear helmets, but no facemasks. It's one or the other, or both. Now, how the Consul breathes without any headgear is another matter. He is never seen off The Immortal, so the ship must maintain an atmosphere suitable to Cabal, like the Dantalion Exodus VI. The Consul probably receives the oil directly as well, from the tubes on his back, similar to the War Beasts. Sorry if this got too off-topic. :) ---User:C0mmanderTh0rn (Talk)
