The Siphon is a Goo support unit.

The Siphon was added as a new unit to the Goo faction in the Descent of the Shroud DLC.

Background[]

The Goo is extremely adaptive. While exploring deep space, a chance encounter with the Shroud forced it to transform into a weaponized force. The Siphon, which saps energy from enemies and uses it to grow stronger, is perhaps one of the most direct influences the Shroud had on the Goo.

Overview[]

The Siphon's beam attack absorbs energy from nearby enemies and uses it to regenerate the health of units within its area-of-effect.

Tips[]

  • The Siphon's healing capability is most effective when a large number of allied units are within its AoE.
  • Targeting higher-HP enemies with the Siphon provides more efficient healing than using it to attack multiple smaller units.
  • While the Siphon offers powerful healing, be sure to back it up with a sizeable number of units.
