Bosses of Deadlink - Phoenix Apex
What do you get when a ruthless PMC works together with an unscrupulous biotech corporation to create a supersoldier? You get our next boss - the Phoenix Apex.
The Phoenix Apex is a melee powerhouse that would love nothing more than to get up close and personal with your Combat Shell. What's left of you as a result might just fit into a Watts-Rucker test tube.
That's why maintaining distance is key. Remember to use the C-Balls to your advantage. They'll aid you not only with resources, but with traversal opportunities to help you stay ahead in the fight against the Apex.
Keep a close eye on its shield as well. When it's up, the Phoenix Apex is fully protected and able to throw back just about everything you throw at it. Time your attacks and pick the right angle to strike at this brute or wait for Mothership to spawn its drones and hit them all with a grenade - this will create a fountain of shields.

PML-SB000
The top of the line, the cream of the crop. The most elite member of the Phoenix force, augmented with experimental military-grade cybernetics infused with the toughest nanolattice alloys money can buy.
Uplifted with Watts-Rucker's gene therapy. More wetware than the average Phoenix soldier, but definitely less Homo Sapiens, more Homo Patent at this point. Created for solely one purpose: stopping the menace plaguing Watts-Rucker operations. The corporate dealings leading to its creation must be the stuff of lawyering legend.
