Odd centaur exploit! *Spoiler*

[sup2069]

If you swim to the lever spot under the water, the centaurs will bomb themselves to zero health while locked on to kill you! Though I didn't try removing there shields before trying this but, in the screenshots I didn't shoot a single bullet at them and they took their own lives to zero and it disappeared but they were still alive. I tried to go back up to kill them but their retarded fire arrows killed me deep in the water...hmmm Seems the developers didn't want you in the water in the first place during this fight.

Woah, cool find. So their health goes to zero but they don't die? That's strange. :scratch:

Was posted before. I wish I remember by who so I could give proper credit. It's nice to have screens just the same. Would you mind sizing them down or converting them to links? Images that wide deform page layout for everybody.

I tried that trick. Shoot at the walls and their healthbar goes down. Did it twice while I was down there, they didn't die.

I was messing around with that last night. I think I used more health packs getting down to that cavern than I do normally during that fight. :rolleyes: But I found that swimming back up they didn't target me, although I don't know if that's because I waited so long before doing it (there was only one left. Oh, and I didn't try shooting the walls, either. I just hung out for a while.) or because I was hugging the rocks as I swam. :scratch: Anyway once I got back up, I took down the remaining centaur pretty quickly since it was already damaged and the other guy was already toast. His shield was embedded into the ground on an angle and he was nowhere to be seen. :D

Anyone know if taking their shields before you jump in makes a difference in how long it takes?

I meant to mention that boots :P I blew like 5 mini health packs getting down, I find it retarded that they can shoot through the walls at you..:scratch:


To Dem, opps for got about the bandwith.

I tried it a couple of times and have the experience it doesn't work everytime though. It seems like it's a bit easier if shooting at them for awhile before diving down to the cave. Try to dive when the centaurs kinda pause their bombing and make a proper note on where the cave is so you can swim directly to it. That way it use to work fine. However: I just managed to make that friggin' adrenaline dodge to work with the T-Rex and now it's really fun to do it too! When i come to the centaurs next time i'll do it the way it was meant to! (or at least try... :D )
