The '''chimera''' is a bestial and ferocious [[entity]] added by the [[Anomaly DLC]].

== Summary ==
Chimeras often appear in packs. Cunning predators, they will wait for an opportunity to attack you at your most vulnerable.{{Check Tag|Detail needed|not sure what actually causes them to start attacking or if that's just flavor text.}} They can be dangerous combatants, especially in large numbers.
 
 
They bleed at half the rate of normal animals and have 50% [[Toxic Resistance]].
 
 
The chimera has the unique ability to become enraged upon taking damage, gaining a hediff called 'Rage Speed.' This ability makes them much harder to put down, and much more adept at closing the distance between it and your pawns.
 
 
'''Rage Speed:'''
 
* [[Pain]]: {{good|×0%}}
 
* [[Move Speed]]: {{good|×175%}}
 
** This results in a move speed of {{#expr:{{P|Move Speed Base}}*1.75}}{{CS}}
 
* [[Stagger]] Time Multiplier: {{good|×0%}}
 
 
Colonists who see a Chimera will receive a {{bad|-8}} mood effect for 24 hours. Killing or disposing of the Chimera has no affect on this moodlet.{{Check Tag|Thought Template}}
 
 
=== Containment ===
 
It provides Advanced anomaly research, and can be studied every 2 days.
 
It has a minimum containment strength of 70.
 
When hooked up to a [[bioferrite generator]], it yields {{Icon small|bioferrite||3.225}} [[bioferrite]] per day.
 
When hooked up to an [[electroharvester]], it provides 430 watts.
 
 
 
== Analysis ==
 
== Analysis ==
With its ability to become enraged, and inability to be downed due to pain, it can catch up to ranged pawns frighteningly fast. With much greater movement speed than a default pawn, outpacing it might prove very difficult.  Heavily armored melee pawns or [[ghoul]]s are recommended to intercept them first. It has some of the strongest melee attacks of any single entity, equivalent to a [[Bear]], and can quickly cause a colonist to bleed out by tearing off limbs. Like many entities, it is susceptible to [[fire]], and won't attack while it is putting out the flames.

ANALYSIS TEXT
 
 
They are limited to their powerful melee attacks and will eagerly pile up behind a door blocked by melee colonists.  Like manhunter animals, they will not attack structures and will wait patiently outside a colony that has walled itself in and closed its doors.  Unlike manhunter packs, they won't sleep and will roam outside player bases indefinitely until they're killed.  Also unlike manhunter packs, chimeras do not count as mentally broken and can be turned against each other with [[psychic insanity lance]]s or berserk [[psycasts]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} - notably, they're affected by the [[Manhunter pulse]] psycast{{RoyaltyIcon}}, which has a very large area of affect and can often turn entire raids of Chimeras against themselves. Chimeras are also hostile to non-entity raiders.  Summoning a mech boss or deliberately failing a draw animals ritual to summon manhunters are both viable ways to eliminate or weaken a pack of chimeras.
 
 
 
Capturing chimeras is quite difficult due to their immunity to pain combined with their high speed and durability.  The most reliable method is generally to wound one severely, then retreat behind a door until it passes out from blood loss.  When using this strategy, keep in mind that they are extremely fast and may block a doorway before your colonist can close the door.  They are also susceptible to temperature traps, though their thick fur provides ample insulation against the elements in cold biomes.  [[Psychic shock lance]]s are another option, if available.
