A diabolus is a mechanoid added by the Biotech DLC.
Summary
An ultra-heavy mechanoid with a high-energy hellsphere cannon. Made for siege-breaking, its hellsphere cannon takes time to charge up a shot, but can melt concrete and vaporize bone. The diabolus dissipates its waste power through a heat column mounted on its back, allowing it to produce massive fiery explosions as a defensive measure if surrounded at close range. While extremely powerful, the diabolus lacks maneuverability - meaning you’ll need to be fast and agile to defeat it! Keep your colonists moving to outpace its hellsphere cannon, or distract it with cannon fodder.
Analysis
You can summon Diabolus by selecting a Mechanitor then and choosing the summon option. You will need to have microelectronics researched and built a comm console before this option becomes available.
Diabolus will crash down in a ship after a random amount of time ranging from a few in game hours to days. He is accompanied by 3 Militors. They will not attack immediately, but will instead act like a raid and "prepare" before launching their assault.
The militors have low health, but boast a powerful shotgun blast, so it is wise to eliminate them first
Diabolus alternates between two long range attacks:
1. Hellsphere cannon. When using this attack, Diabolus will create a red circle around one of your colonists. After several seconds, the circle erupts into flames, destroying all structures and often outright killing any pawn in the blast. The radius of the blast is a bit larger than the circle, so you may want to err on the side of caution. The best approach is to draft your pawns and manually move them out of the attack radius. Splitting your pawns up will allow more of them to focus on shooting instead of running. The hellsphere cannon attack leaves a large circle of fire behind. Not only does this make it difficult to go back to your original positions, but it might also lure non-drafted pawns out onto the battlefield to extinguish the fire.
2. A single pulse bullet. This is long range and relatively low damage, but it has almost no startup time. Try to get behind cover if possible.
It is HIGHLY advised to NOT use melee attacks. When engaged in melee, Diabolus will trigger a special ability. It surrounds itself in explosive fluids and then ignites them creating a massive fireball around it. This attack deals heavy damage, and there is almost no time to disengage and run to safety.
Defeating the Diabolus rewards the player with a signal chip, which can be used to build tier 2 mechanoids.
