“

The Glyphid Oppressor is literally an organic tank: A monstrously mutated Praetorian, the Oppressor is covered in so much bullet-resistant chitin that it is pointless to attack it from the front. Luckily, they still leave their abdomen mostly exposed to flanking maneuvers, but the Oppressor is something you very much don't want to encounter in a tight space. Their forelimbs are powerful enough to chew through sheer rock like butter, as well as capable of producing stunning shockwaves on impact. Be extra mindful of your footing when confronting one of these.

— Miner's Manual Description

The Glyphid Oppressor is a heavily armored Praetorian with a very small weakpoint. It can appear in any mission type. It can dig like Glyphid Dreadnoughts can, and has multiple attacks.

Combat

Health and Armor

The Oppressor has a massive section of armor covering the entire front of its body. It can only be damaged by attacking the small greenish weakpoint on the back of its body, in roughly the same area as the Glyphid Praetorian. It can also be damaged with indirect damage using weapons such as the Flamethrower or the Cryo Cannon.

Attacks

The Glyphid Oppressor has numerous attacks.

• Slam that creates a shockwave, pushing any Dwarves in the radius of the slam away from the Oppressor and dealing a small amount of damage.
• It can dig in the same way that a Bulk Detonator or Dreadnought can, using a slam that removes terrain and damages any Dwarves in the radius of the slam.
• Ranged attack consisting of the Oppressor slamming its legs down on the ground, producing stalagmite-like protrusions from the ground that damage and push away any Dwarves caught in the area of the attack.
  • The Gunner's Shield Generator will not block it.
