same here @LoneKnight667

Anyone else having an issue with all almost all raids being called Archon Raids, even if they are tribals or something? Its just a name change from what I can see, nothing about the raids are different, but it is annoying.

Is there a way to trigger the returning via scenario editor so they can come back after a fixed time.

Is there a way to trigger the transcended colonist returning using the dev mode? So I can have a dead colonist return when I want rather than having to wait

@Killahbob agreed. I didn’t even know it would kill my colonists. There are also just an insane amount of strikes you can’t even really go outside. And it could last a quadrum???

I really wish their was a good way to reduce the effects of the storms. The flashing makes the game unplayable, and i haven't seen a good way to reduce it to a manageable level. I just have to walk away until the storm ends and hope i have a colony.

@rhys118 Its random whether they appear or not. I have had them appear multiple times. You might need to have more colony wealth for the raid to occur.

had 4 psychic storms hit my base now, but not a single raid from these guys

@Нубас they are inspired by thew Githyanki from Dungeons and Dragons, where swords are most commonly used

@Karambo the default is 50% chance.

Also, does anyone else experience issues with "Extremely Aggressive" social fights being skipped whenever it occurs?

Oskar please add a new race that has naturally high tolerance for diabetes and obesity but very slow and requires insulin to function, call it Americans

summary for this mod

casting down a storm that destroys 20% of your base then cripple or explode your boomalope then sends down anime ass green elf with cardboard cutout swords with enchanted nordic bullshit to beat ur ass

Could we get a lore reason for them using swords? I mean, I understand that they aren't archotech soldiers, as the description states, but a race so powerful and wise must have a reason to use such objectively inferior weaponry. An honor code? Some sort of tradition? Religion (worshipping the archotech that created them)?
Anyways, I'll just use another mod that adds archotech guns lol.

Just had one raid me super early on and kidnap one of my guys. Man in black showed up but even he couldn't pen her armor with his .45 colt (CE) lol. Hilarious, I hope that pawn comes back somehow in the future.

hi everyone. short question:
what is the default chance for an archon raid to show up?
in the beginning i set it too 100% to get a higher chance to capture one, but now i want to return it to the default chance.

level 3 transcendent psycast be like "Take the skipgate and the reversal, then smash the two together to create and push out imaginary mass... Hollow... Skipgate..."

Can it not rain during a Psychic storm? like if say the entire map is burning, how rain is supposed to come right after, that cant happen if there's also a psychic storm?

@mermader Because Transcendant is an Archotech gene. Any gene that uses Archite capsules in its creation does not pass on, which makes races like this one somewhat weird. There might have been a gene that makes archotech genes pass on, I can't remember, but by default they don't.

Why is transcendent never past on to hybrid children???

Tech savvy Githyanki? Illithids are so screwed now!

Oh, I see. Thank you for clarifying.

It's a gene in this mod, one that makes them use ANY weapons in social fights.

How do I get pawns to stop using archoblades in social fights and giving my other pawns sear scars?

Bae'Zel

I should mention that the sword has freewielder trait and i used a biodecoder on the armour

During psychic storm they get 1shot by burden psycast

Also for some reason my dirtmole pawn can wield the weapons and armour without the gene

these archons are just githyanki they both have innate psychic abilities, extremely aggresive maniacs, most i've seen used swords and they even look like gith and i love it

How long does it typically take for someone with transcendent to return after they die?

"No. You’re looking at it wrong. I wanted to add specifically the Githyanki." Hahaha, I did a CTRL+F for Githyanki based on the image. That's great, keeping this mod enabled. :)

I love these monsters. Doing my first Anomaly run. Well, rather, my fourth. This is the only one where I didn't get wrecked right away.

I have two Archons. I had a Revenant from Anomaly escape. Or he tried. Two archons taking turns Shortskipping him back into a pile of melee pawns over, and over, and over, and over again made sure his lanklet ass had nowhere to run to. Ahahahahah. Awesome.

Answer to myself and everyone, he has returned to my home tile

Question, just had one of my archons eat it to a steel axe and die instantly but I was on another tile raiding a steel outpost when it happened, and not on my home tile, will he come back to my main base or if i leave the tile, will he just never come back?

It's Randy, it's Random

Can chime in on the massive raids, had some Rooms dug into a Mountain and my first royal title and suddenly got attacked by a dozen Archons laughing at my arrows and slaughtering everything what didn't make it inside. Played with a randy random too. I am just happy it happened early and not deep into the run.

is there a way to deal with the extremely agressive trait? like an implant or something because i captured one but i dont want him to kill one of my colonists for looking at him funny

i also had this bug with the mass raids. i have too many mods to find the culprit, and its only happened once, but i did get raided by rougly 200 archons. 190 or so of them walked right of the map. only the 10 or so that were inside my defenses actually attacked me when i was still broke as can be. it grinded my game to a halt, 2 fps (or is it tps) haha. no complaints, its a great mod and worked just fine. Just felt i had to mention it. It is likely a popular mod causing this, as several people have enmcountered it. next time it happens ill make sure to look for errors or a modlist. TY for the great mod. just wish they didnt always teleport out when they got downed (unless ive just been killing them every time and thats why they shwoop away). <3

suggestion that has to do with vanilla expanded pirates and this. a warcasket that can only be constructed on a pawn with the transcendent gene.

Sir... These lizardmen just teleported into my leader's bedroom and killed all of his super freaking RARE animals before I could respond. Not cool. Not cool at all.

I demand a written apology from the Lich Queen herself. Thanks.

Raids scale according to wealth. You have a mod conflict

Just got hit by 54 archons in a pyschic storm, yes im on RR, but that CANT be correct? thats just a game over at this point, I have 2 colonists and have been raided by up to 4 tribals thus far.

If you are using Randy Random, that's working as intended

i just started a playthrough with this mod enabled and almost immediately got a psychic storm shortly followed by a raid of 16 archons and got obliterated i had 39k wealth on a 150% difficulty save do the archon raids not take wealth into consideration while raiding? or was that raid just bugged.

No.

Is there any way to heal archoblade scars?

Meant to add, under my Vanilla Events Expanded settings, under the Archons category, storm chance is set to the default 1 as well.

I've had this mod active since the day it released and have gone through probably 10 psychic storms in roughly 300 hours of playing since then, not once have I seen an Archon or anything related to them. Is this intentional? Am I just the unluckiest person on the rim? I use Rimpy and VRE: Archons mod settings are set to 50% chance during a psychic storm.

Is it intended that the shield on the archoplate only stops some bullets? My archon is still getting hit pretty often, even with the shield up.

Any chance we could have a slider to toggle how often the psychic storm events happen? They happen far too often for my liking, and while there's a slider to adjust how often an archon will spawn, there's none for the storm. It keeps destroying my buildings ):

Can confirm that when zoomed in on an Archon, there's a "thrumming" ambient sound.

Is there a reliable way to avoid sear scars? I had archons pop up several times in my tribal run and now have a colonist what is at 50% manipulation due to all the scar pain.
