How to Beat Rubric Marine

Headshots

Try and focus on headshots to quickly open up a marine to execution. Likewise, as you close the distance with Rubric Marines, whittle them down with headshots before finshing in melee.

Prioritize Plasma Weapons

Fully charged shots from a Plasma Incinerator and Plasma Pistol have proven to be the most effective at quickly taking down Rubric Marines.

Dispatch Warpflamers at Range

It's recommended that you engage these Rubric Marines from a distance, as a squad of them can quickly take you down if you are too close.
