Flotador
- For the XCOM: Enemy Unknown (2012) version, see Flotador (EU2012)
"Los flotadores" son criaturas débiles que, como su nombre indica, son capaces de volar.
A diferencia de los Sectoides, que pueden ser muy peligrosos cuando están acompañados por Cyberdisks y/o un líder Sectoide, los flotadores no son excesivamente peligrosos. Su principal ventaja táctica en combate es su capacidad de volar, lo que les permite ubicarse en posiciones de francotiradores en techos, aunque muy raramente lo hacen.
Los flotadores se pueden encontrar con frecuencia en misiones de exploración o también en misiones de terror, acompañado en este último caso por Reapers.
El flotador es quizás la raza alienígena más común que encontrarás durante el juego.

Specimen Live
The Floaters are primarily soldiers and terror agents.
They are naturally predatory beasts, genetically engineered and cybernetically enhanced to make formidable warriors. The lower half of the body and most internal organs are surgically removed, and a life support system is installed.
This implant contains an anti-gravity unit which enables the creature to float, albeit unsteadily, through the air.
Autopsy
The creature has been drastically altered by surgery. The device which seems to form the core of the body is a life support system, taking over the function of heart, lungs and digestive system.
This would enable the creature to survive in extremely hostile environments. The brain is smaller than ours, but the sensory organs are well developed.
Notes
The following are some miscellaneous notes on the Floater:
- The Floater takes 1.2x damage from melee attacks, and 1.6x damage from a Celatid's acid spit.
- Average Energy.
- Is slow (low TUs).
- Low Health.
- Low Reactions.
- Low Strength.
- Low Psi Strength.
- Very low Firing and Throwing Accuracy.
- Rank matters when fighting Floaters. Floater Leaders and Commanders have much better stats than the other ranks, especially concerning Firing, Reactions and Armor. This can lead to some unpleasant surprises when those ranks are present but it is also a way to figure out the higher ranks if you don't have a Mind Probe.
