Maturity Statistics and Evolution Paths

The Praetorian is a Tier 3 and cannot evolve further.

Maturity increases stats as follows.

Slash is the melee damage when the xenomorph is in harm intent and slashing marine. In the code, it's melee_damage.
Melee, bullet, laser, energy, bomb, bio, rad, fire, and acid are soft armor values, not hard armor, which means that they reduce damage by a percentage rather than a flat value.

Age	Health	Plasma	Slash	Melee	Bullet	Laser	Energy	Bomb	Bio	Fire	Acid
Young	290	800	20	30	35	35	35	0	28	35	28
Mature	320	900	20	35	40	40	40	0	33	40	33
Elder	340	1000	23	40	45	45	45	0	35	45	35
Ancient	360	1000	23	45	50	50	50	40	38	50	38

Cooldown

Toggle Bump Attacks

Allows you to toggle bump attacks on and off. This allows you to slash any enemy creature by running into them. The red arrow means it's on, you attack when on HARM intent; the green arrow means it's off, you push when on HARM intent.

N/A

Rest

Used to rest and get up. You heal faster when resting on weeds.

N/A

2 seconds

Psy Drain

This ability is used on dead Marines. For every Marine's psyche drained, the Hive will gain between 30 and 90 psychic points, depending on the number of Marines spawned; and 1/8 of a larva.

N/A

Corrosive Acid

Expels acid onto an object or wall, destroying it after a while. If used on wall, a hole will appear after some time. Small xenos can climb through, large xenos can break the wall with the hole on it open. CTRL + click to interact with the acid hole.

During the prep phase, all xenomorphs with this ability get strong acid.

[Acid Strength by Caste]

Drone and Sentinel, and Scorpion have the weakest acid. Takes 8 minutes to melt a hole in a regular wall. Cannot be used on reinforced walls.
Hivelord, Shrike, Spitter, and Praetorian have common acid. Takes 3 minutes to melt a hole in a regular wall. Cannot be used on reinforced walls.
Boiler, Primordial Hivelord, Queen, and King have the strongest acid. Takes 1.5 minutes to melt a hole in any type of wall.

75 if caste has weak acid;

100 for medium and strong acid

N/A

Emit Pheromones

Toggles your pheromones, allowing you to select Recovery, Warding, or Frenzy. You only emit one at a time, and you can see which pheromones you are effected by in the Status tab. Emitting pheromones uses 5 plasma every regeneration tick. Strength of pheromones is tied to caste and increases the effects. More at Xenomorph Mechanics.

[Pheromone Types]

Recovery: Accelerates healing and sunder regeneration for resting xenos, increases the amount healed from healing abilities, and increases plasma regeneration. Allows for healing after taking damage without having to wait 10 seconds.
Warding: Increases soft armor in all areas for each level.
Frenzy: Decreases movement slowdown by 0.6 for each level.

N/A

Xeno Spit

Spit neurotoxin or acid at a target or tile. While neurotoxin is generally not lethal, it will cause pain and slow marines and can have a big impact while supporting other Xenos or fighting on your own. Your acid spit will do burn damage and can slowly wear down poorly-guarded barricades.

40-100

N/A

Spray Acid

Channel a cone of acid across the ground in a 4x7 tile area. Knocks down targets it hits and does tick damage to any target that stands in or moves across the acid while it remains on the ground.

Dragon Evolution

Once the hive has enough psychic points, your queen has the option to unlock powerful primordial evolutions for each strain. Primordial evolutions grant additional abilities for the relevant class.
For the XENOMORPH, this primordial ability is Acid Dash.

Ability	Description	Plasma Cost	Cooldown
Acid Dash	Instantly dash up to 5 tiles, ignoring small strucures like tables and spraying acid in your path. Marines in your path are knocked down. For 2 seconds after the initial cast, you can recast the ability without cooldown for an additional, acid-less charge.	250	30

Tips & Tricks

In the absence of the Queen, you will often be looked at as a central point of combat due to your powerful pheromones. Make sure you're supporting your other Xenomorphs and paying attention to the battle.
You can help an assault succeed, or even influence a push to begin, with a well-placed acid spray that drives marines back from barricades or catches some out, wounding them or cutting them off from support.
Praetorians also rival Spitters in their harassment ability, so make sure you're constantly spitting neuro or acid when you're not spraying or fighting.
Your acid spray can peek through the corners of cades, given that there isn't anything blocking.
