What types of enemies can't take cover?
After playing through quite a few missions, I've come across a number of different enemies that seem to be unable to take cover (which I've found by mind-controlling/hacking them).
For example, in the screenshot below, I'm mind-controlling a Berserker, and when I move the cursor next to high and low cover, no cover icons appear.
Which types of enemies do not make use of cover?
Best Answer
So far, I've found that the following types of enemies are unable to use cover (presumably because they're too big, or because they float/fly around all over the place):
- Mecs
- Archons
- Sectopods
- Berserkers
The following types of enemies also cannot use cover (as pointed out and confirmed by Chris Hayes in the comments:
- Gatekeepers
- Faceless
- Chryssalids
- Andromedons (after they revive)
- Psi Zombies
