| |
| '''Nightcrawler''' is a [[Events#Blackout|Blackout]]-exclusive [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]] in ''Kaiju Paradise''.
| |
|
| |
|
| The Nightcrawler is a lizard like [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]], being mostly grey colored with a black leaf-like or scar-like patterns on its ears and limbs. It has a unique purple pattern on the front of its torso and the bottom of its tail that glows during [[Blackout|Blackouts]]. The Nightcrawler wears 3-lensed night vision goggles that glow a faint purple alongside a waist belt of pouches and a singular blowtorch.<!--according to ronin "Its totally Tactical Caprisun"--> It wears a pair of black gloves.
| |
|
| |
| ==Abilities==
| |
| Unlike any other [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]] seen in the game, it has two unique moves: '''Pummel''' and '''Pursue'''.
| |
|
| |
| Nightcrawler minions do not have the same unique abilities as a goggled Nightcrawler and will instead have 115 HP along with the standard [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]] abilities (Grab & Attack).
| |
|
| |
| ;Pummel
| |
| '''Pummel''' works similar to a [[Katana|Katana]]. It is a 'combo'-like type of ability, allowing Nightcrawlers to attack survivors 3 times in quick succession with the last attack having a slightly longer cooldown. Unlike the Katana however, it will not slow the Nightcrawler down. During [[Blackout|Blackouts]], the last attack will make the Nightcrawler dash forward.

| ;Pursue
| |
| [[File:Robloxapp-20220305-1520339.mp3|thumb|Nightcrawler's Pursue noises.|right]]
| |
| '''Pursue''' is the Nightcrawler's signature move. The ability has a 30 second cooldown.
| |
|
| |
| Pursue is divided into three stages: '''First''' is the preparation stage, where the Nightcrawler slams their fists into the ground and causes nearby survivors to be ragdolled. Shortly after this begins the '''second stage''', where the Nightcrawler begins to sprint wherever the camera is facing. You cannot control its movements in this state and can only move your camera around to guide the direction of the pursuit. If the Nightcrawler collides with a survivor, it will damage, knockback, and ragdoll them. The '''final stage''' begins near the end of the pursuit, in which, should the Nightcrawler come into contact with a survivor, will cause the survivor to be grabbed by the neck, lifted off the ground and punched away, dealing heavy amounts of damage and ragdolling the survivor. Said survivor will then act as a projectile, damaging and ragdolling any user that is hit by them for a few seconds. If a survivor dies to the punch, they will not be turned into a Nightcrawler and will instead die and eventually [[Locations#Spawn|respawn]]. If there are no nearby survivors to collide with during this stage, the pursuit will simply end.

| |
| ;Rage
| |
| Exclusive to goggled Nightcrawlers, they have a "Rage" system where they need to keep their rage bar above 0% by fighting, or else they start losing 5 HP per second. They can have a maximum of 300% when there are no [[Blackout|Blackouts]], and a maximum of 600% during one.
| |
|
| |
| In order for a Nightcrawler obtain passive regeneration, the rage bar needs to be kept above 400% during a Blackout. Otherwise, however, it only needs to stay above 200%. Nightcrawler has an increased passive regeneration rate of 1.5 HP per second.
| |
|
| |
| Using Pursue causes 75% of the rage bar to deplete.
| |
|
| |
| While rage bar is active, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15-9jzWkh70 Lost Judgment OST - "Fog"] from Lost Judgment's Soundtrack is played in the background.
| |
|
| |
| ;Health Buff
| |
| Goggled Nightcrawlers have a huge health pool of 800 HP. They can passively regenerate if they have the necessary rage, They can also heal through infecting with Pummel healing 20 HP upon infection during [[Blackout|Blackouts]] and 10 HP otherwise.
| |
|
| |
| ;Retaliate (Passive)
| |
| ''NOTE: This attack is currently non-functional; however, a fix is in the works.''
| |
| Upon losing 100 health in under 1.5 seconds, the Nightcrawler will stomp on the ground, sending nearby players into a ragdoll and dealing 12 damage. Retaliate requires 15 rage to function.
| |
|
| |
| ;Block (Blackout Passive)
| |
| During [[Blackout|Blackouts]], [[Axe|Fireaxes]] and [[Scythe|Scythes]] will be dodged, yielding the text <span style="color:#e52d2e">'''"Seems like they managed to evade your axe/scythe swing.."'''</span>, and reducing the damage dealt by 90%, resulting in both the Fireaxe and Scythe dealing a meager 4 damage. Evaded attacks will not slow the Nightcrawler nor ragdoll them.
| |
|
| |
| ==Acquirement==
| |
| '''Nightcrawler''' can be obtained by finding a pair of [[Transmogrifying Items#Goggles|Goggles]] around the map or via infection from another '''Nightcrawler''' [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]], becoming a '''Nightcrawler minion'''. You will not have the goggles, and will not have the unique abilities of a Goggled Nightcrawler.
| |
|
| |
| The goggles can only spawn randomly around the map during [[Events#Blackout|Blackouts]] next to or nearby [[Weapons|weapon]] and [[Items|item]] spawns. They have a 60% chance to spawn each [[Events#Blackout|Blackout]] in public servers. It is always guaranteed to spawn in private servers.
| |
|
| |
| If the goggles are to spawn, they will do so 6 minutes and 15 seconds into a [[Events#Blackout|Blackout]]; otherwise referred to as the '''beat drop of the 2nd loop'''.

| |
| '''Nightcrawler''' is a non-event [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]] in the ''Kaiju Engine''.
| |
|
| |
| The Nightcrawler <!-- night carler 😈is a lizard like [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]], being mostly grey colored with a black leaf-like or scar-like patterns on its ears and limbs. It has a unique purple pattern on the front of its torso and the bottom of its tail that glows during [[Blackout|Blackouts]]. The Nightcrawler wears 3-lensed night vision goggles that glow a faint purple alongside a waist belt of pouches and a singular blowtorch. It wears a pair of black gloves.

| ==Abilities==
| |
| Unlike any other [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]] seen in the game, it has two unique moves: '''Pummel''' and '''Goggle'''.
| |
|
| |
| Player-infected Nightcrawlers do not have the same unique abilities as a goggled Nightcrawler and will instead have 100 HP along with the standard [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]] tool, Attack.
| |
|
| |
| === Pummel ===
| |
| '''Pummel''' works similarly to its 3.1 counterpart, having a shorter cooldown and longer range compared to Attack. In the KE test, Pummel's third swing combo has been completely removed, making it function closer to a Knife rather than a Katana.

| ===Goggle===
| |
| [[File:Robloxapp-20220305-1520339.mp3|thumb|Nightcrawler's Pursue noises.|right]]
| |
| '''Goggle''' is the Nightcrawler's new move in the KE Test, replacing Pursue as its second ability.
| |
|
| |
| Unlike Pursue, however, Goggle is not a combat-oriented ability. Instead, it gives the nightcrawler a sort of "Night-Vision", allowing it to see opponents across the map, even in dark environments. It covers the player's screen in a color filter that reduces the entire game to a simple black-and-purple color pallet. This filter surrounds opponents in a black fog, while outlining their exact shape in bright purple.

| ===Health Buff===
| |
| Goggled Nightcrawlers have a large health pool of 200 HP.
| |
|
| |
| ==Acquirement==
| |
|
| |
| '''Nightcrawler''' can be obtained by finding a pair of [[Items#Goggles|Goggles]] that spawn inside supply crates dropped randomly around the map at specific intervals. This will not happen if a Goggled Nightcrawler is already alive.
| |
|
| |
| After transforming successfully into a '''Nightcrawler''', the song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N24UjVheoY0 "VIOLET BREAKTHROUGH"] will start playing. Players who attack a '''Nightcrawler''' will also hear this song.
| |
|
| |
| You can also obtain it by being infected by another Nightcrawler [[Gootraxians|Gootraxian]], but you will not have the goggles, and will not have the unique abilities of a Goggled Nightcrawler.
| |
| </tabber>-->
| |
|
| |
| ==Trivia==
| |
| *'''Nightcrawlers''' are one of the only few [[Gootraxians]] who can outright kill survivors.
| |
| **In this case, they can do so by using their '''Pursue''' ability.
| |
| *After you successfully transform into a '''Nightcrawler''' you will be unable to reset.
| |
| **This means that you can only die as a Nightcrawler if you leave, get killed by survivors, all your health depleting while your rage bar is below 0%, or walking into the barrier at spawn.
| |
| *Despite natural regeneration being locked behind their Rage passive, goggled Nightcrawlers can still naturally heal if a [[Slime Pup]] is on their back, albeit slowly.
| |
| *It is the second Gootraxian in the game that doesn't have the usual abilities such as grab & attack, the first being the Slime Pup.
| |
| **However, Nightcrawler minions will have the standard abilities.
| |
| *The only weapons that can ragdoll '''Nightcrawlers''' during [[Blackout|Blackouts]] are [[Bricks|Bricks]], [[Bottle]] and the [[Bottle#Golden|Golden Bottle]].
| |
| *If you use <code>''':tf me nightcrawler'''</code> in private servers, you will transform into a Nightcrawler minion.
| |
| **This can be changed by including <code>''';goggle=true'''</code> on the initial command.
| |
| *Goggled '''Nightcrawlers''' have the highest health pool out of all Gootraxians, excluding Diamond Slime variants, with a total of 800 HP.
| |
| *'''Nightcrawler''' is the only Gootraxian so far to have appeared in the game's thumbnail despite having not been released for the time it appeared.
| |
| *They were heavily inspired by the [https://payday.fandom.com/wiki/Cloaker_(Payday_2) Cloaker] from the Payday franchise.
| |
| **In previous versions of the game, using the command '''<code>;cloaker=true</code>''' on par with Nightcrawler's <code>''':tf'''</code> command in private servers gave the Nightcrawler Cloaker's voice lines.
| |
| **Additionally, its festive outfit bears strong resemblances to the Cloaker's outfit.
| |
| *'''Nightcrawler'''<nowiki/>'s faces were slightly different when it was still unreleased.
| |
| *It is currently the only known Gootraxian to have more than one contributor create its concept.<ref>https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/858029724664463400/1001441391488020580/ooo_spooky_lizard.png Each contributor's contribution to Nightcrawler, March 3 2022.</ref><!-- might not be the best cause 1- probably poor wording and interpretation. 2- this comes from what kaz herself said. -->
| |
| **[https://www.roblox.com/users/1086411684/profile ButteredPancakes] made its initial design.
| |
| **[https://www.roblox.com/users/76311463/profile Mysticalesta] created its concept art.
| |
| **[https://www.roblox.com/users/1236771217/profile Kos] assisted in its design.
| |
| **[https://www.roblox.com/users/270154034/profile Kazuko] gave the idea of its species.
| |
| **[https://www.roblox.com/users/352837306/profile Chroma] suggested its current name.
| |
| ***According to one of the contributors, its design is heavily inspired and based on [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Salazzle_(Pok%C3%A9mon) Salazzle] from the Pokémon franchise.
| |
| *Goggled '''Nightcrawlers''' are one of the only few [[Gootraxians]] whose Bestiary entry is unlocked right after infection, and is also one of few Gootraxians who have multiple ways of unlocking its Bestiary entry.
| |
| **A Nightcrawler minion has to obtain a '''10 infect streak''' in order to unlock its Bestiary entry.
| |
| **Players can kill the Goggled Nightcrawler to unlock its Bestiary entry.
| |
| ***However, only the player that has landed the last hit on it will unlock the entry if they do not already have it.
| |
| * Despite goggled '''Nightcrawlers''' being considered a mini boss, they still drop 30 credits upon death.
| |
| *Similarly to [[Jammer|Jammer]]'s Diversion tooltip being used as [[Feizao]] and [[Fashui|Fashui]]'s Slippery tooltip at one point, Nightcrawler's Pursue used to share the same tooltip as [[Protogen]] and [[Dark Protogen|Dark Protogen]]'s Self Destruct.
| |
| *Hovering over the Nightcrawler's icon in the Bestiary repeatedly will play the Nightcrawler's Pursue sound effect, as well as cause its icon to violently shake.
| |
| *When a player picks up the goggles, the Blackout will extend by 50 seconds, and after transforming, it will last an additional 550 seconds, adding up to 1300 seconds (21 minutes 40 seconds) as opposed to 750 seconds (12 minutes 30 seconds).
| |
| *Goggled '''Nightcrawlers''' were able to block [[Bottle]] while in a [[Blackout|Blackout]], attempting to hit Nightcrawlers with a Bottle would deal a pitiful 1 damage, yield the text <span style="color:#e52d2e">'''"There's no effect.."'''</span>, and ragdoll the attacking player, dealing 30 damage in retaliation.
| |
| *In an update, the Nightcrawler’s health was reduced to '''600''' so it was easier for humans to kill the Nightcrawler.
| |
| *Originally, It was planned for Nightcrawler to be able to weld doors shut using the blowtorch on their utility belt. this was unimplimented for unknown reasons.
| |
|
| |
| ===Bugs===
| |
| *The '''Pummel''' was affected by the anti-cheat, causing it to usually miss the second/third attack due to the short cooldown, this has been fixed at the release of [[V3.1 Hallows Eve Event]].
| |
| *Oddly enough, Pursue's ability to break doors also applies to locker doors. In the past, it would play the animation, but the door would still remain intact. This has since been changed to break the doors.
