Matriarch

extreme Threat

Heavy Armor

A colossal ARC, the Matriarch is the largest machine Raiders have encountered, dwarfing even the Queen and only manifesting under specific high-threat conditions. It saturates the battlefield with explosive rocket salvos and gas mortars that leave lethal clouds lingering across your escape routes, forcing you to keep moving or choke. When pressured, the Matriarch can deploy a heavy energy shield that soaks incoming fire. It will call in supporting ARCs, including Fireballs, Wasps, Leapers, Bastions, Bombardiers, and Rocketeers to escalate any encounter into a full-scale siege.
