Scab Mauler[]

Scab Maulers are an Elite enemy type in the ranks of the Moebian 6th Regiment.

Overview[]

Scab Maulers are armor clad juggernauts of the Moebian 6th. Their helmet is carapace armor while the rest of the body is covered in flak armor. They are also armed with a 2 handed variant of the Chainaxe.

Maulers are incredibly dangerous, they are capable of downing a player with just a few hits from their chainaxe. this combined with their armor that prevents them from being staggered through most conventional weapons makes them a nearly unstoppable force. Due to their armor Maulers have practically no soft spots or weakpoints.

Maulers are commonly found in either pairs or small groups of 3-4 depending on mission difficulty. unlike most other melee enemy types Maulers are quite slow, often times only jogging at a brisk pace to close the gap between themselves and their victims.

Strategy[]

Maulers can be tricky to deal with for lower level players who do not have access to higher tier weapons. while they can be dispatched with standard ranged weapons, this will result in the player using a massive amount of ammo if the weapon lacks any kind of armor piercing ability.

Weapons that possess armor piercing abilities or traits like the Locke Mk IIb Spearhead Boltgun are a great choice as these will easily dispatch a Mauler with a few well placed shots. Melee weapons like the Cadia Mk IV Assault Chainsword or Ironhelm Mk IV Thunder Hammer are easily able to dispatch a Mauler when their alternate attacks are used. Furthermore most alternate melee attacks are capable of staggering Maulers which can provide players with a bit of breathing room and allow them to reposition out of the Maulers range.

The Psykers Nomanus Mk VI Surge Force Staff is capable of dispatching a Mauler quickly when its charged attack is used. Smite can also stun lock Maulers while damaging them making them easy targets for other players.
