Shadow Plague is Physically Impossible even on Normal Difficulty. Templars unkillable.

[Aria The Chocolate Devourer]

The Templars Literally cannot die in any way shape or form unless killed within less than 5 minutes of their spawning. I have managed 3/5 of their facilities, but the 4th and 5th on N O R M A L D I F F I C U L T Y is literally unkillable.

I have tried every single POSSIBLE strategy, from doing nothing until im maxed dmg to upgrading only as nessecary, or upgrading excessively until I can fight them, Ive even tried waiting until I have the DNA to max out Shadow Plague, and nothing. Literally nothing is working.

The Templar CANT Die, nomatter how hard I try. I thought this was exclusive to Mega Brutal and Brutal, being horrid game design to the point of insulting the player for not being hyperoptimized, but now its happening on even normal difficulty which is whats putting me off.

I wouldnt care if it was a quirk that you had to kill the last templars via the Shadow Plague by forcing them to kill everyone in their population, but that doesnt work! NOTHING DOES! Its LITERALLY impossible to win, and its...so frustrating. Its conceptually my favorite plague, but its literally unbeatable for no valid reason.

PLEASE Devs, look into how violently overtuned the Templar Are, it feels like a bug more than bad game design, but if this is intentional, then Shadow Plague isnt worth playing for anyone who isnt literally optimized enough that they could compete in Pro Leagues.

Maybe upgrade combat ability and healing, put a vampire on every Templar, and have them all attack at once. That way, they can't reinforce the other Templars because they all get destroyed at the same time.

Not physically possible. On brutal difficulty you get cured within less than a minute, and it takes time to make even another vampire, not even to mention that it'd take like an hour to save up the DNA for it.

And IIRC Templar Industries literally helps the cure and the progress doesn't go away upon their death, if I remember right.

Funny you say that, I tried that exactly. It made it harder.

Maybe your game is just bugged? Because i don't have any issues destroying templar bases, even on mega-brutal, and so do most people here...

I hate that this is probably correct too...

Weird mate. I had no problems at all. Just upgrade your combat ability and attack them early. Also try to enslave humanity, so they are attacking them as well.
