So according to the wiki description on Pulsars, "A high-tech Gremlin firearm designed for use by elite squads of Ironclaw soldiers. Pulsar shots become more powerful the farther they travel."

On the same note, catalyzers also have a similar description about them being used for Gremlin mining.

So why haven't we seen any gremlins with handguns yet? Any speculation or theory on gunner gremlins?

I think there could be some interesting enemy classes that we perhaps haven't see yet.

Not out yet.

Both the Pulshar and Catalyzer shots are slow.
As in, give these weapons to gremlins and dont make it too hard. Just slow enough where they(us) can dodge.

But i guess they just decided to give it as a token reward.

who knows, right?

Ironclaw soldiers

You could be on to a suggestion there. And what's the problem with a little difficulty? OOO could make the game have at least a challenge by adding "Ironclaw soldiers" .

designed for use by elite squads of Ironclaw soldiers
Altought they are mere ironclaws, maybe those "elite soldiers "are too busy guarding the king or something important.

catalyzers also have a similar description about them being used for Gremlin mining.
We haven't seen any real mining operations either.

Or Brinks simply stole all of them and destroyed the factories :P

Praise the sun!

Suddenly I'm having thoughts of arenas full of nothing but Catalyzer gremlins...

If OOO ever does a Tinkinzar-themed stratum/mission, maybe we'll see something like that. To be honest I'm surprised there wasn't something like that in OCH, but the Stalkers were still a nice touch.

Well if you look at most of the Gremlins, their weapons are more like tools than weapons.

Thwack Hammers are part wrench and Wrench Wands are... well... WRENCH wands. The mini gremlins have the equivalent of Car Batteries I think (that or x-mas lights).

I've always had the impression that the gremlins you meet are more workers than actual soldiers. It isn't until Operation Crimson hammer that you get actual soldiers like the Mortarfires and Recons.

>Juances - Brinks is so boss, he has at least one of every boss item in multiples. He's probably so rich he can afford not go anywhere anymore.

>Traevlliath - That seems like a legitimate idea, after some of them have to be fixing the place.
