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.^{[Detail needed]} They can be dangerous combatants, especially in large numbers. 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: ×0%
• Move Speed: ×175%
  • This results in a move speed of 6.3c/s
• Stagger Time Multiplier: ×0%

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 3.225 bioferrite per day. When hooked up to an electroharvester, it provides 430 watts.

Analysis

With its ability to become enraged, and unable 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. Melee pawns or ghouls are recommended to intercept them first. It has some of the highest DPS of any single entity,^[Verify] and can quickly cause a colonist to bleed out. Like many entities, it is susceptible to fire.
