Description
My version of a salarian reaper enemy, not sure how he attacks but since he has no weapon maybe he just runs at you like a human husk, only faster.Related content

I think he would attavk someway like Geth Stalker from first game. Jumping all over and shooting you with lasers and shit. I hated those things, but is is sad that they didn't returned in any form

I can imagine this would be some sort of maintenance worker or have a type of laser gun embedded in his wrists.

I can feel Jhonen Vasquez would be chomping at the bit to make a Zim impression of that.

Dunno why but I imagine these things as not being battlefield troops and acting more like maintenance for Reaper Harvesting Facilities or the Reaper Capital Ships themselves.

I'd think Salarian husks would use stealth tech, trigger ambushes, scale buildings and probably leap off ledges at you and shit.

Ah these would remind me of the Twitchers from Dead Space -- move so fast they're a blur and they hit HARD. Probably with, as said before, a neural shock or overload, which would doubly suck.

My guess is they would be like a more agile husk that focuses more on ambushes

I like to think they act like a combination of ME1 husks, hoppers, and hunters.
They can cloak, hop motherf**king everywhere, and close in to deliver a palm-based Overload/Neural Shock.

I think their hability should be "talking its enemy ear off", overloaded attack could be singing an opera song, maybe? Great work btw!

well salarians are bright I doubt that these guys will just run at you

Goblin:
The Goblin,named after the mischievous entity from folklore,is physically weaker than even basic human Husks. However,it makes up for it in tactical planning,surpassing even a Marauder or Collector. These Reaper units have built-in cloaks that allow them to traverse the battlefield in safety until they can strike their enemies from behind whilst they least expect it. In addition to this deadly ability,Goblins can shoot super-heated plasma at their opponents in a similar fashion to Alliance combat engineers to burn their enemies,as well as drain the kinetic barriers of their enemies to restore their own.

Very descriptive, I can practically hear the codex voice over.

"Faster and more vicious, but considerably weaker", perhaps? Seeing as how they lack strength in and of numbers for anything but STG work and all.

Something like the Geth Stalkers/Hoppers/Leapers/Sappers? Maybe even a little mouth laser, or some form of explosive, to take off on Salarian weapon aesthetics and functions?

It would act like a melee version of a get hopper, crawling along ceilings before dropping down onto Shepherd's squad.

Probably would have integrated tech abilities, like some weird and powerful Reaper version of a drone, or the ability to siphon shields.

I was thinking they'd be like Geth stalkers from ME1

Worse yet, the Reapers would extend their lifespan...0_o'

Actually since salerians have a pretty hyper active systems it would stand that your hypothesis would be correct. They'd fight like the husk but likely are way more agile than the husks. Furthermore its likely these types of reapers would be more intelligent than you everyday husk.

These... would fall apart like tissue paper...

I could see the Reapers using these guys to actually do the altering and experimenting on other races. Like, since when a creature is Indoctrinated the Reaper gains control of your mind [and knowledge] they could use all the valuable information Salarians learn to be better at the whole "turning people into horrible monsters" thing. Although, the idea of them acting like Husks is pretty cool too.

Hmm, an attack they do have is that they could have very long tongues. Javik says after all that they used to eat flies. Maybe they could be like frogs.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I love your artwork's style, but I disagree with this one. Salarians are incredibly quick with their brains, but not on their feet, and very technical. I can see them as moving a little more froglike, running with evolved frog-muscled sprinting legs creating things on the battlefield while using fire, frost and electrical attacks.

If I had to guess I'd say they'd act like the geth hoppers from mass effect 1.

Iwas sure that Salarian-Reaper forces were Ajuntnants from Deception

You should get some serius cash for these, talent is strong with this one

Can I make a suggestion on a Salarian variant. That the Salarian have a snipper rifle similar to the Maruder, but on the back are pods that pop up to be those barriers to make. Sort of a cross with a Nemissis and Engineer. Except it can cloak as well.

It looks more like it would work like a geth hopper, with all the extra cartalege in there bodies. Tech nullification would work well with them too.
"Creeper," or "Crawler" seam's good if they are like that. (Even though it is speculation)

stealth.. give them stealth and eletrify the talons/claws and speed and their perfect. thats what i think
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think that would work better with the Reaper Drell, wouldn't it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
i got an idea why not call them Goblins have them use slightly enhanced tech powers from a reaper modified omni tool like incinerate and overload perhaps even sabotage and if you get to close it slashes you with an omni blade
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
If I might make a suggestion: Many salarians in-game used cloaking tech. Make them cloaking melee disablers called Ghosts. They sneak up on you while cloaked, and knock you out of cover, making you a sitting duck for a Ravager.

This looks exactly how I made my reaperized salarian. lol

With there natural speed and agility I think it would be fitting if they were reaper medics, they could take parts from dead allies and heal those who are injured.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Well since the salarians are all about the STG... maybe they're like ninjas or something else insanely quick and flexible that's a bitch to land a hit on. You know, like how in dragon age elven darkspawn were shrieks?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
maybe reaperized version of there engineer abilities
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I start with a line layer, then value layer, then color and texture for finish

They could be like those geth hoppers from the first game that hop around; maybe shoots a laser from its mouth?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
that would make a lot of sense, esp since salarians have the tech for it.
