[Shepard leads Leliana into the waiting room; on the right, a circular elevator leads up into the arena, with a few people already suited up and waiting on the benches nearby. A screen displays who's up next, and another the current competitors. On the left shows a large wall of weaponry, controlled by a touchpad. Shepard strides over to it, beginning to scroll through as she speaks.]
They die like most things; headshots are best, but enough damage will take anything out. We should be dealing with mostly foot soldiers- Cannibals are big and lumpy, so named because they'll eat their fallen companions. If you take one down in a cluster they'll redirect to leave no trace, so sometimes you can pick them off from afar, but if they succeed in eating, they'll be stronger. We're also probably gonna be dealing with husks, which look humanoid. Move like you'd expect zombies to. Fast, weak, but always come in packs.
[She's got them up on a slightly higher setting, so there's gonna be more, too.]
We'll also probably see Marauders, which move more like trained foot soldiers, but they'll buff alies. They look like Turians- tall, lean, spikes on the crown. Take them out first. Ravagers, short and insect-like, huge sacks. Never close-combat them, they explode into acid, but have crazy good canons. And then since we're on a slightly higher levels, we might see Brutes- big fuckers, strong. Their biggest weak points are their head and fleshy asscheeks. I'm serious. But they'll charge you and they will win. Last is banshees. They've got biotic power- magic, basically. They'll send long-range attacks and teleport towards you quickly, and if they catch you, you die. No getting out of that one.
[This sounds... really stressful, hm.]
... I mean, uh, this is what happens on the field. These are all fake, so there's no real stakes. If one catches you, the game just shuts off.
You mentioned you liked archery, right? They've got bows and arrows here, if you'd prefer.
