Champion Subject 6 is an ooze created by the Inquest found within the Thaumanova Reactor Fractal. Formerly an Asura Inquest Technician, he became an unwilling test subject to his superiors as the facility is approaching critical. After being turned into a champion ooze as part of the experiment, it breaks free from its containment pod and proceeds chase down and consume its "creator", before turning its attention against the Fractal Explorers. It guards the Cooling Rod necessary to disable the collider within the cooling chamber.

    • For this achievement, bring Subject 6 to 19 stacks of Overload before killing it, and do not let it reach 20 stacks at any point thereafter (it explodes at 20 exact). If it reaches 20 stacks, you can wait until it uses Shield Form to try again. Dying and restarting the fight can still give another chance at getting it. The achievement is registered as soon as Subject 6 is defeated.

Notes[edit]

  • Functions similarly to Subject 7 from the Queen's Gauntlet.
  • One of the possible land transformations from the Endless Fractal Tonic.
