The Shiva Exo Suit is a vehicle in Red Faction: Armageddon.
Description
Alternatively known as the Marauder SHIVA (Solo Hostile Infantry Vehicle and Artillery), the Marauders, impressed by the Red Faction-created LEO, came up with this unique combination of artillery suit and recon device. The Shiva's gyros and servers add to the pilot's strength, agility and armour without detracting from long-range manoeuvrability. Its expense and difficulty of use have made its use necessary only under the strictest of circumstances.
You can't pilot the Shiva, but you do need to be familiar with it. Several SHIVA units have fallen into the hands of Adam Hale's Cultists, posing a serious threat to Darius. The SHIVA lacks shielding and is most vulnerable to explosive weaponry such as the Plasma Cannon or the Rocket Launcher. Alternatively, target explosive objects next to the SHIVA to inflict heavy damage.
Be ready to doge the incoming blasts fired from its shoulder-mounted cannons - as soon as you see the purple, glowing projectile headed your way, immediately leap out of the way. The Scout Walker is incapable of dodging such attacks, so it's best to take out SHIVA units as fast as possible.
