Outlaw Vipers are a light fighter-class Outlaw enemy in Everspace 2. They are identified on the heads-up display by a stacked-triangle icon.
Characteristics & Behavior[]
Vipers are armored combatants armed with Corrosion Missiles and Scatter Guns. They can switch between two combat mode In their ranged mode, they initiate combat with Corrosion Missiles, then open their wing pods and switch to twin Scatter Guns after they have closed the distance. They take less damage while in their close-combat mode.
Strategy[]
The damage taken by Vipers is reduced while they are in close-combat mode, so players are advised to maintain their distance, not only for improved damage output, but also to make it easier to avoid the corrosive clouds released by these enemies on death.
Vipers are immune to the Corrosion condition, so do not use corresponding weapons like the Corrosion Missiles or Scorpion Missiles on them.
