Mangus ISIC is a Boss.

Description[edit]

Mangus ISIC is a rogue AI. He is easily the most nihlistic AI.

ISIC is only vulnerable at a few points on its body. On each of its legs there is a cartridge in it. You need to inflict enough damage to each of those. They will go from green to yellow to red. Drain them out and the cartridge will eject. Getting through a number of cartridges, which seems to vary based on the number of people in the party.

Getting through the cartridges, ISIC will lower its core and expose it. Loose powerful attacks on this core. This is where you can hit for critical damage.

Throughout the fight, ISIC will be launching attacks. Mostly he will try to stomp on you with you. Occasionally he will hi-jump and try to slam down on you. He can also send shock waves through the floor. These will do damage to whoever is touched by the wave. It will also launch them very high up in the air. You can avoid the shock wave with a well-timed jump.

ISIC will be able to launch a number of Robot Minions. This introduces a unique variant: Magnus Boom Bot.

When ISIC is reduced to the final quarter of his health, the AI core will break away from the body and start floating around the arena. The entire team will be launched up into the air.

For this part, you will be constantly launched into the air. You must loose your ranged attacks against the floating Mangus AI head. This is causes by a number of shock waves that are launched from the sides of the arena. Just like the others, they can be avoided with carefully timed jumps to go over them.
