How Dangerous Is Bronze Colossus' Pushing?
« on: December 26, 2021, 09:10:00 am »

Wiki article states on live training against a colossus dummy that it is barely dangerous as "both sides don't do much damage". In fact if all goes correctly all attacks on colossus intended to grind stats should glance away. Some people say that colossus does devastating pushing.

As far as I know a character unable to do it's natural attacks anymore does pushing.

Does severing more body parts like ears reduce damage of pushing since it contributes to weight?

Does mangling (turning into red text) torso, head and neck reduce damage of colossus?

Can an unarmored elephant man with superior (not super) defensive stats survive the attack?

Does anybody know how to become an elephant man in adventure mode? I literally did all advanced world settings possible to increase chances.

It may have been harmless in some earlier version, but it isn't in 0.47.05

Just tested in Arena Mode:
  • instead of a Bronze Colossus, a comparatively harmless Giant Anaconda
  • knock out both fangs and the teeth
  • victim is a Grasshopper Man
First "push" explodes the upper body into gore, instantly killing the victim.

Where does the wiki have this outdated information? (I don't have a wiki account but somebody else could correct the article.)

Correct.
