Knight Health jumps from 5% to 100% in Firefight!

Here is the game clip, starting at about 13 you will see Knight Sectator’s health jump from 5% to 100%!

This can’t possibly be the intended behavior. I can tolerate health jumps of 10-25%, but a full recovery is ridiculous and just makes the game seem amatuer. Like 343 thought that the best way to increase difficulty was to give the AI some free continues.

A Watcher repaired his armor. There’s no way to heal that much from anything else.

Yeah, definitely a pesky watcher. Here’s a funny story, once upon a time something like this happened to me. I was in a wasp, it was round 2 on Apex 7 with the two knight bosses, I had them both down to almost no health, but then I saw one go back to full health and we ran out of time. I was so irritated, I took a clip and made a thread on here just like this one. Then everyone told me, that was a watcher! So I went back into theater mode and it was a watcher.

The moral of the story is that watchers are -Yoinks!-.

Gotta spend some money on those REQs to even out the odds…

yeah thats definitely a friggan watcher…always make the priority 1 to kill

That’s what there going for… kinda… even with the reqs though it’s not a sure victory, its still hard as all get out. So there really is no insensitive to pay.

The problem with this is that some people still don’t understand that watchers do this -Yoink-, like do you honestly believe they just fly around for no reason just to get shot at? The amount of times I’ve been on a final round with knight bosses and people just keep shooting at the Knights when there’s a tonne of watchers around and I’m just screaming down the mic to take out the watchers first but most people don’t listen because they’re either in a party or mute other players more or less as soon as the game starts. Communication is key in these situations but that social aspect of the game has more or less gone down the drain

Always kill the watcher first

Kill da watchers.

Kill the watchers first

Gotta pop those watchers dude…

Wow, I’m a little embarrassed to say I knew they sucked up grenades but I didn’t know they restored health.

Regardless, restoring health in full still seems a bit ridiculous. Knowing it wasn’t regen tech, 50% health seems more fair.

Some times there isn’t any watchers around and they just spawn as they are about to go down.

Ive also not seen any knights expose their faces in a long time.

even when they spawn theres a warp light show so if ur paying attention u know when they pop up
as for the face theyve been doing it for me as i was playing yesterday.
also it depends on the tier of knight,higher ones tend not to expose themselves

Warp doesn’t always animate I’ve even seen a warp that took for ever to come through and their was just a warp signature up for a long duration of time.

i havent experienced that issue

It’s not always watchers, there are times where Knights (and other Bosses) simply decide to restore their health.

HA! That is the least of your troubles! It is brutally atrocious to see them regenerate the Warden’s health to 100% in blink of an eye. Then is even worse when to see all your efforts to take down a mantis go to waste when they just casually begin to regenerate their health as their shields recharge! Phaetons are also culprits of this atrocity!

Jumping on the bandwagon: Kill the watchers!

Yea it’s not as glamorous or as impressive as killing a Knight or a Soldier, but it’ll save you and your team the hassle of their health regen ability. FF is hard enough man lol.

At least they can’t revive the Knight bosses and Knights in general like they could in Halo 4…
