Pretender Zeus
Features
Pretender Zeus is an uber ai resting in Jupiter's orbit, players must first slay his quartet of guards, Io, Europa, and lastly Ganymede and Callisto together, before facing off against him.
Pretender Zeus has an extremely large amount of shields, but extremely little shield regen in turn. He doesn't deal a lot of DPS himself, but compensates with a huge DPH and spawns enough guards over time to more than make up for his DPS if they aren't handled appropriately.
Surrounding the wormhole are the corpses of those who dared to challenge the mighty uber. Their wreckage can be salvaged using surgical weapons to extract useful drones, overloaders or tweaks. Albeit, years of exposure to space radiation and the dangerous proximity to Jupiter has left them extremely unstable rendering them useless for warp-speed travel.

Testing
Pretender Zeus was first killed during a competition held by the admin Jeff_L that was made to encourage players to band together in an attempt to kill the Olympus ubers. This competition was held so he could 'balance' them if necessary.
Pretender Zeus was modified slightly from his original form; originally Ganymede and Callisto spawned together at the end and no Olympus Drone spawned to give him an invulnerability aura.
The group that killed Pretender Zeus during this testing period consisted of:
- Susan Ivanova
- uss brown
- SinsOfOurFathers
- Dark_Light
- Tech9
- AD
- Destruction Package
- maerilith
- Ivelios
- Roffles
