Stalkers vs Inanimate Objects

OK, I'm pretty sure if a stalker attacks from hidden against an attack-able/destroyable object that he can get the damage bonus. Am I right?

If I am, then, my main question is.. Could he use Placate on the object to do so again?

I always wondered about that. I thought they were haunted! o_o;

Some of them ARE haunted. The rest are Nemesis automatons shaped to look like inanimate boxes to lure you into a false sense of security.

We're still working out the timeline for their future assault, apparently it is VERY far in the future.

I thought the question was going to be "who would win?" I was going to bet on the inanimate object.

Hey... I resemble that remark!


(it's not like any of us who play them can really deny there is some truth to this)

Only when they explode... the explosion usually does more HP then most stalkers have

Hey, on a bank mish the other day, my stalker got jailed and hit the cell door so hard he frightened it.

Now that's hardcore

This is not nearly as funny as taking a Mind controller/dom out on a Mayhem mission and using Terrify on a bunch of cardboard boxes in an alley.

"Boo!" *KABOOM*

Can you use Confuse on 'em? If so, I would like to set up the world's first Cardboard Box Arena Fighting Championship!

Remember you need weight classes, because there are Cardboard boxes and Large Cardboard boxes. It wouldn't be fair to put them all into one tourney together.

i'm pretty sure i've confused cardboard boxes in mayhem missions. Of course seeing a cardboard box confused was pretty much a mutual experience. Confused cardboard boxes really can't do anything except glare at each other, what with being immobile and not having any attacks.

They can flap their flaps at you menacingly. And if you get too close this could result in a nasty papercut.

As mentioned above they can spin in place. and with those reinforced corners can bruise your shins.

never underestimate the power of the corrugated cardboard box.

This reminds me of the best thing that happened during City of Villains pre-release testing. Who else remembers The Desk of Doom?
