Slender Fortress - Steamwork Goliath [FATE: The Traitor Soul]

Shintö Shrine Slender Fortress IP: 45.235.99.105:27032 Shintö Shrine Discord Server:   / discord   Heyo Everyone! So today we got another new boss originating from the game FATE: The Traitor Soul. This time is the enemy generally called Steamwork Goliath. This boss has been created by Kyushin and can be found in Mixed Pack 4. The boss depending on difficulty, it will change size wise and name too! On Normal it's called Lesser Steamwork Goliath, being just slightly taller than a tf2 merc; on Hardcore is called just Steamwork Goliath, being about 2 tf2 mercs tall; and on Insane-Nightmare is called Greater Steamwork Goliath, which is gigantic! Steamwork Goliath is a survival chaser, with the bonus that the bigger it gets, the faster it also gets, becoming close to a nightmare giant chaser by Insane+. Having a constant background fog, it does affect some vision! This is a solo boss with no copies for most difficulties, having an average hearing range and walk speed, even on Apollyon, but having really good vision that extends to the limit of the fog, having high grace on lower difs, but lowering on higher difs. It starts with just two attacks on Normal, having a single big step double hit with its arms and a standing spin attack! On Hardcore, it gains the ability to shoot a fireball, but has to stand still for a second, lastly on Insane, it gains a standing fire aoe that does high damage and burn you, but to trigger this attack you need to be close to it! It's melee stunnable, but its hp increases the higher difficulty you go, it already takes about 8 hits to stun on Normal, to stunning it overall is not worth it, as it drops a small health kit and it hurts a lot of damage wise. So surprise! There's an interesting Apollyon silly change! Having a very different bgm, gaining a copy, and having a discord-rainbow glow, staying at it's greater steamwork clanker size. Gaining also many different unique sounds that you'll hear, even in certain of its pre-existing attacks, it does get a new launch attack where it goes kaboom and disappears. There's some small yet cool details you can see with this boss! As you'll notice on top of its head, it's burning, on the lesser variant the fire is a lot smaller, growing in smoke and size, the bigger it becomes! There's also a constant engine sound playing with this boss, as it only really has a spawn and walk sounds effect! Overall this is a pretty neat boss! Its been interesting to play around, it has ended up in the stronger end after rebalancing, but that just means you cannot bully stun it nor try to see them attack animations, just run away and you'll survive!

Side Note for myself. So the game franchise started with just FATE in 2005, but then released as FATE: Undiscovered Realms in 2008, only to get a second game that held everything from before known as FATE: The Traitor in 2009. Later we got installments like FATE: The Cursed King in 2014 and now FATE: Reawakened in 2025. Quite the mix of entries for the first 3 games, which has made it hard to find anything specific and yee the ambience music of the game is not on YouTube so got to work on that somehow.
