Kaviss, Splicer Captain

"There's a Fallen Captain nearby, and he's got a pin on him. Bet he just threw it in with a bunch of other scrap. Doesn't even know what he's got."

- The Ghost

Kaviss, Splicer Captain was a Fallen Splicer Captain that was encountered in the A Khvostov Rising Mission. He possessed the firing pin necessary to finish making the Khvostov 7G-0X.

Gameplay
Kaviss is equivalent in strength to a Public Event target, meaning they will call for a lot of concentrated fire, particularly from high-impact weaponry, in order to bring them down. Their Absorption Shield is extremely resistant, even to sources of Void damage, and can regenerate in an instant. They also possess a large amount of health, and come equipped with a SIVA-infused Shock Rifle. The battle lasts for two phases.

The first phase will commence when they run out of a building located on the left side of the Divide. They will be accompanied by a pair of Splicer Vandals, but the Captain is capable of calling for more reinforcements. Due to their high health count, it will take more shots than usual to stagger them, allowing the target to otherwise move around the area and flank you from different angles. Once half of their health has been depleted, however, Kaviss will teleport far away to recover.

The second phase is more difficult, mainly because of the environment. It is significantly more enclosed and numerous reinforcements will appear. Kaviss will also have fully regenerated their shield and health. Cover is less apparent in this area, as the enemies will always find a way around. The Captain will try to suppress you so that the other Fallen can more easily overwhelm you. The player will have to be mobile and aware of there surroundings in order to stay alive. Once Kaviss has finally been eliminated, you will obtain the Khvostov 7G-0X.
