Death is not a hunter unbeknownst to its prey, one is always aware that it lies in wait. Though life merely a journey to the grave, it must not be undertaken without hope. Only then will a traveler's story live on, treasured by who bid him farewell. But alas, my guest's life has ended, his tale left unwritten

I don't think the Shuri is for sale (outside of mods), but can be captured. I got one on one playthru, it wasn't bad, but my biggest problem was: Player didn't know how to use a carrier.

As far as I can tell it is a colossus with a different name.
Not a point difference on the stats that I can see.

NPCs generally dont come with max shields, or max anything really.
Just saying it forward: I give everyone 2 posts to make good, in context posts(proper english, as always, is optional). After that I'm ignoring what you have to say in that thread that's directed to what we previously were talking about.

True they aren't Argon One, but then Argon One isn't Argon One anymore... :P

Yes, AFAICR. I don't /think/you can board it (sucessfully), but you can certainly destroy it in various ways. A new Argon One will be comissioned & deployed shortyly afterwards

It is, I have one.
After boarding, sadly, it appeared to be a standard Colossus. Nothing more.

Yes... 2.5 I think, was the patch that made it destructible/capturable.

Sadly, the Hoshi is a far superior carrier. I seem to recall a backstory that the Yaki stole a Colossus and copied it to make the Shuri.
