- 14th Political Prison / The Citadel
- Cheongun Village
- Songdo Wharf
- Cheonwang Peak Array gate, South Korean Wilderness
- How to find
- Roams; banner appears on approach. Also one of the two final bosses of Operation Fallen Ember.
- Watch for
- Fires the minigun in bursts with pauses and can track several players at once. Ordinary explosives barely touch him: guides agree his suit shrugs off grenades, launchers and rockets. Thermite, Drill Charges and the Shock Stick are the exceptions. A creator's solo kills show about six or seven Thermites alone can kill him, and Shock Sticks stun him. The October 25 patch notes cut "Drill Charge damage against enemy Colossus", so Drill Charges still hurt, just less. He can take stairs but not ladders or pipes. His shock arcs through nearby metal and vehicles, and his canister releases gas on death. Make gunfire your main plan and use the rest as support.
- Kill plan
- Clear the soldiers around him before you engage.
- Spread the squad so he cannot lock onto everyone; flank from at least two angles.
- Stay in hard cover and shoot during the pauses between bursts — aim for the head.
- Skip grenades and launchers. Stun him with a Shock Stick and throw Thermite while you reload; Drill Charges still add damage but hit softer since the October 25 patch.
- Solo: clear his escort, then get up a ladder onto a roof, shack or platform and peek so only his head shows. He cannot follow you up and rarely lands hits. Never drop to his level. This comes from a creator's solo video and is not yet verified by us.
- In The Armory, fire down from the stair landing with a sniper and rifles; you never need to enter the gas.
- Bring
- High-capacity rifles or LMGs, Sniper rifle, Thermite (about six or seven for a solo kill), Shock Sticks (one or two per Colossus), Drill Charges, Stun grenades, Extra plates
