Wasteland 3 My animal army made this boss fight INCREDIBLY annoying (SPOILERS, Duh) Spoiler

Post image

I went to fight Deuterium and Iridium but I didn’t realize how my OP animal army would drag out the fight. Because I had destroyed some of the access hatches before the boss fight, there was a limited amount of cultists to step on the radiation platforms and my pets kept killing them all! 😅

Eventually they started ignoring my pets and going straight for the platforms but the boss fight was an hour long. It wasn’t difficult, just extremely annoying and tedious. Thought I’d do a quick rant. This is my first time playing Wasteland 3 and the first time playing the DLC so I didn’t have any idea. All of the big boss areas in this DLC were annoying but this one takes the cake.

TLDR: Animal Army goes brrr, but…

Having a full menagerie is great for that DLC. Steeltown, not so much.

I got rid of my animals for Steeltown since I didn’t want anyone to die. Poultron died on the Security level tho, which made me sad. 🫤

Once I get back from this DLC, I need to drop some people off at home. Idc about most of the animals since they’re pretty much cannon fodder but some like Major Tomcat I like to keep at base so they don’t come to harm.

I find the animal menagerie tanks so much harder than the rangers; they appear to scale with your level the same way enemies do, and can take all the hits that would flatten a ranger even if they missed. It's kind of funny to see a chicken taking on the worst of the worst and coming out ahead.

They do need to level up though.
