Siren
From the Resistance Wiki
The Siren is a presumably the predecessor of the Fury featured in Resistance 2. It is first encountered in Bonn, Germany in Resistance: Retribution.
After Bonn, Sirens are encountered in almost every water environment.
Near the final boss battle with The Chrysalis, James Grayson has to fight a Siren that is called The Mother, who is many times larger than the normal ones encountered. It uses the similar sonar attacks but also has the ability to suck the player towards it. During this special attack, if the proper button combination is not pressed, it will proceed to consume the player and throw him/her away as half eaten "fish food". Although the entire battle takes place underwater, the liquid is breathable; similar to the liquid Bouchard was kept in in Bonn. This boss shows weakness to any of the BM003 Razor's attacks.
[edit] Description
Unlike the Furies that appear in Resistance 2, Sirens have the ability to create telekinetic blasts to attack their enemies, and are able to be killed by gunfire. Sirens also appear to be mutated exclusively from female humans.
[edit] Combat
Because Sirens can only be found underwater and in water-like substances, it is important to know that only energy weapons will work against them. In Resistance: Retribution, only the Auger WS, Longbow 1S-1K, the BM001 and BM003 Razors are capable of functioning underwater and dealing damage to them.
The Advanced Auger-FS is also extremely useful against Sirens, as its shield is indestructible and will reflect projectiles back at the enemy who fires them.
[edit] Trivia
- The Siren is named after the dangerous bird-women who sang enchanted songs to sailors which lured them to shipwreck on rocky coasts.
