Hey guys. I joust got reinaissance NPC pack which contains HLS npcs. Well, i spawn Nihilanth. He looks very cool, but i have a question how do i kill him? I know he is a boss... Well i destroyed ALL of the orange crystals i could find, but he just keeps killing me. :D Just a simple question - can i even kill the Nihilanth?
To be honest I dont know, some of my sweps just pass through his oversized head without doing any damage and either way i dont have the texture for the orange crystals so they look black :( And if all you are doing is destroying the crystals, then no wonder you cant kill him, all the crystals do is heal him, they dont keep him alive, destroying the crystal just cuts off his ability to heal (which you need to destroy anyway), that is if the maker of the Half Life Resistance Pack (nice job btw) made it according to what it is in half life
Well, you could nuke him. :3: Otherwise, after you destroy the crystals, shoot the body like there is no tomorrow.
Play half life 1 and beat it. That should be a good enough clue.
There should be jump-pads on the ground near him. Lure him low, hit the pad and once you're above him, you should see the inside of his head (the top of its skull 'opens' sorta). Shoot a rocket in there, or toss some satchel charges in and he should die pretty quickly.
1st-Destroy orange Crystals 2nd-Hit his body 3rd-If he open's his head, shoot in the triangular part of the head, after this, he will die,but remember that he can spawn XEN creatures.
I am dissapoint. Why doesn't anyone play Half-Life 1/Source anymore?
I HAVE completed Half-life 1 2-3 times. Just Nihilanth doesn't open his head, there is no frigin' jump pad...
No,you have to shoot in the body until well ,he opens his head :/
The best way to kill it: REMOVER TOOL
Not even the tool, the freaking annoying sound and the orange balls still stay.
I think undoing him is more effective (faster) than the remover tool.
Stop saying shit. The NPC spawns energy crystals at random map places (You must make sure they are destroyed, remember HL1?), then his head opens up.
Works fine for me.
There is an indication when he will open his head. He has energy surrounding him at all times. When he is down to 1 or even no energy orbs surrounding his head. He opens his head and starts to desperately shoot little orbs at you.
