Buginis

"Creatures that have adapted to thrive in a plant-rich environment." Buginis is typically the second breed unlocked in Sipho, and is well-adapted for traditional ranged combat.

Ingame
Buginis

It is a breed unlockable through gathering Buginis DNA, obtained by killing Buginis.

Zooids
It has Splitters as a starter structure zooid, it has 20% less health than a standard structure zooid, but in exchange for that weakness, it provides connected zooids with a buff that makes them generate a small amount of energy.



It has a Rattler as a starter movement zooid which can move at a greater speed forwards and a small speed in other directions.



It has a Flak as a starter combat zooid that fires three projectiles that deals damage when activated, but the "bullets" fade if there is no target to hit.

It has a Miner as a starter utility Zooid that places a kind of contact mine placer

they will eventually explode into a close of poison, and All enemy zooids within the cloud will be poisoned and will take 3 ticks of damage from the poison over time, much like the Squirter. They will also explode if they come in contact with an enemy Sipho.

Tactics used against or as a Buginis. (More to be added soon)
As a Buginis...

You pretty much have a gun/Flak and poison mines, use the Flak to attack from afar and to destroy poison mines, and use the poison mines to slowly kill an enemy chasing you, while you're running away. You can also use the poison mines on the red species' grabby things to make them detach from you.

If you are fighting against a Buginis, you're going to want to stay away from any poison mines they place, they are an excellent "Stop your enemy in their tracks" kind of Zooid. I suggest using melee weapons against it... But if it has poison mines on it, try to either not get to the side with the poison mines or just attack from afar.

Guardian of Depths
Use the Miner  to place poison mines in its path, useful because it just rushes forward, ignorant to the mines. Do this enough and you won't be damaged by very much and it will be dead.

The Queen of Corrosion
When fighting a Buginis boss, just do pretty much what you did to the Advena boss, lay poison mines in its path, get it to follow you into your mines, and eventually, it'll die from poison damage. The tricky thing is with this boss, is that it too has poison mines. Be cautious of the color of the its mines, bright purple means its about to explode, any other color means it will be a couple seconds until automatic detonation. The boss' mines still explode on contact.

Mhajh'tha
When fighting a Cra'Than boss with the Buginis, you're pretty much screwed unless you cheese it. Since it takes a little bit for the boss to fully spawn in, if you dash next to the walls, then follow the walls until you get to the upper middle, that's where its head will be. You aren't encased inside of the boss and it can't attack you. But the regeneration is still annoying, and will regenerate parts to protect its head, eventually, you will cut through and destroy its head.

After that... You're on your own, the minions will probably push you against the wall and stun-lock you. If you don't want this to happen, go through the whirlpool as fast as you can, but in exchange for not being stun-locked... you're now in an area with new creatures that still want to murder you.

As I haven't gotten to this boss yet, I will rely on Salreix and N30X to add information to this.

And... boom. You just beat the game.

Trivia

 * 1) In the early development, Buginis used to look like a crustacean. For some reason, OG players preferred the old ones over the new ones, because of this, they have asked Dominas to bring it back. This is how it used to look like: vvvOld buginis F.jpg
