It's only a 2-Stage Mission, and pretty straightforward. You'll hear alarms each time a new wave is incoming. The AIM Agents will drop in the two side entrances and the Ultron Drones will come down from the middle-back of the arena. If you lure them all towards the middle, there is a lovely looking device on the floor, triggered by the big red button, which will electrocute them. Might not destroy them in one go, but it will hurt them quite a bit. |
Sabertooth is undoubtably the shortest and easiest Mission in the game. A favorite of people who help do the Hero challenges, it also unfortunately comes with a short EXP, ticket, and money payout. Play it for it's length, not what it gives. This Mission takes place in the SHS Helicarrier. Someone is invading you, and they're sending in AIM Agents, Ultron Drones, Sentinels, and Sabertooth, oh my! |
Sabertooth is all melee. He'll throw himself across the stage to hit those not near him, grabbing them, then using his claws, but it's fairly easy to sidestep and dodge him. When he roars, he heals himself, though not enough to make a huge difference. Occasionally, if you interrupt his attack, he falls down and is disoriented a moment, and that is a fantastic time to beat the crap outta him.

After a few waves of Agents and Drones, you'll get a message there are Sentinels incoming. They'll come in two waves, one towards the middle of the stage and the second (after the first wave is destroyed) back near where the Drones come in. You can lure them forward towards the middle to use the device on them to help take them down a bit.
Try to hit them from the back or the side, since they'll bop you on the head to stun you. They'll stomp those closest to them and hit ranged characters with their lasers, but the stun is the worst one, because then they can follow it with a stomp. |
Attacks and Cues
When he says "Here I Come." - Heads towards his target a few steps, then leaps towards them and claws them. Just move when he jumps to dodge it.
When he says rears his right hand back, open palm - Swipes his target with his claws. Side-step to dodge it.
When he yells "RAWR" - Heals himself a little.
Playing Tips
- Unless you're playing with a team, Ranged characters are unadvised. Sabertooth gets too up close and personal.
- Try to stay behind the Sentinels to attack.
- Sidestep Sabertooth is dodge his attacks,.
