The player can disrupt these attacks by shooting at the yellow orbs in either tentacle, a task best suited for rapid-firing, instant-hit weapons such as the P-Sec Pistol or the Pulse Rifle, After a certain number of swings, the player will then move to a raised ventilation shaft on either side of the Urchin and enter free-look mode when this happens, the player needs to use Stasis on the fan, whereupon they will head into the tunnel and the Urchin will try to grab them, only to have its tentacle severed when the fan starts up again, destroying that fan.Īfter its first set of primary tentacles has been severed, its secondary set will be deployed.
It spends most of the battle submerged, attacking by battering the player character with its primary arms. The Urchin is discovered growing in one of the Water Purification facilities in the Ishimura's vast Sewer System, below Hydroponics, which may mean that the Urchin is an offshoot of The Leviathan. As with The Leviathan, The Slug, and Drag Tentacles, this last tendril is its vulnerable spot.
Specifically, the Urchin has four large tentacle "arms" tipped with yellow, eye-like orbs that can be protected by a tripartite 'eyelid', a triad of smaller, rear-mounted tentacle-mouths that can disgorge explosive sacs (akin to those produced by the female Slashers), and a frontal tentacle tipped with a knot of faintly luminescent, swollen, gnarled, yellowish cartilage. The creature's origin is a mystery, but it bears some resemblance to the Leviathan and the Slug, consisting of a rather formless main body surrounded by multiple tentacles.
