Knew I wasn't crazy!
« on: October 26, 2007, 21:09 »

Arch-Viles *do* leave corpses!


sergeant is bleeding! The bleeding stops. The former sergeant loses           
 blood. The former sergeant dies.

:/ I know that doesn't look like much, but the only way I could really get better proof is through a video recording of some sort, and I'm not sure how to work that.  Suffice it to say that my final bullet knocked and killed it out of sight, and a caco did come around too, but it got shot out of the way such that I was able to see this, which finally proves that I *wasn't* crazy that time a long while ago when I had to fight three Viles which rezzed each other.  Also, no, there weren't any other enemies I killed in this area.  The Vile was the first thing to poke its head through the door, and the only one I killed.  Acid and lava don't do bleeding damage, so it couldn't have been either of those on a different corpse.

>_> Sorry if this inspires more fear in you all... at least they don't resurrect each other often!  Oh yes, they also have a *melee* attack, which appears to be somewhere between former foo and demon strength, so there's a new weakness as well. :grin: Happy hunting!

Hm, not sure if that's even the right picture, but IIRC I was playing UV, so it's possible...

Nope, that's impossible. Even on Nightmare! the only monsters you could see on level 2 are: human, sergeant, captain, imp, demon and lost soul. AVs on UV spawns only on level 9(IIRC) and higher.

That's gotta be the wrong picture. It shows former sergeants bleeding (something you didn't mention), you're on the second floor, second level character, and you're wielding a standard pistol.

In other news, I completey agree with you that AV's leave corpses and can rez each other.
