Mal the Arachnid

Mal the Arachnid

Mal the Arachnid is an Imperial sniper ace who is hidden to the north east of the main base during Marina's Challenge: The Wildwood II -- Sniper Trail, the third mission of the Challenges of the Edy Detachment downloadable content for the original Valkyria Chronicles videogame.

Notes/Trivia

• Mal is armed with a ZMSG 7 (g) sniper rifle which is also your reward for defeating him. It is a high powered anti-infantry rifle with decent accuracy mounted with a high zoom scope capable of devastating enemy infantry at medium to long range.
• Unlike many enemy aces Mal the Arachnid has relatively low evasion but care must still be taken when attacking from the front as he will still dodge incoming shots.
• The position that Mal takes behind the player's primary base can easily be missed; it is easy to assume that the area is clear of troops as he will not move into a position where he can draw a direct line of sight with your units unless first provoked.
