Megatronus (Empowered)

Megatronus (Empowered) is an unplayable boss-exclusive version of Megatronus, granted increased stats, new and improved abillities, and most of times accompained by Mods to increase his combat efficiency. As an extremely powerful Bot, it is usually the only enemy in its own Mission, with two to one nodes only.

He is the final boss of Act 4.

He reappears as boss for Chapters 1 and 2 of Act 5, but significantly less threatening, with lower Rating, less threatening Mods, and the latter of the two even has him start the fight damaged, on Relic of Eternity.

Synergies
As an unplayable boss character, Megatronus (Empowered) does not possess any Synergies, for he cannot be matched with any other Bot in a team.

What Could Go Wrong?
As Perceptor and the scouts acquire intel on the Decepticons' plans, they discover transmissions stating that the artifact Shockwave recovered with the Forge of Solus Prime did not contain Relics, but instead an entirely functional entity, who unbeknownst to them was Megatronus. The Decepticons powered-up the machine to awaken their new master, but he supposedly blinded all Bots in the archology field with a flash of raw energy before teleporting to an unknown location.

Emergence
Scouting the area, Cyclonus finds a weak Megatronus wandering in the deserts of New Quintessa. He could not transform into his alternative mode, and was barely walking. Despite intially thinking the dark envoy wanted to eliminate him, Megatronus learns that Cyclonus seeks the Prime's guidance after abandoning Galvatron. As such, Megatronus entasks him with delaying the Autobots so he could recover his strengths for the coming battle. Eventually, Cyclonus fails, retreating defeated to warn his new master of the coming danger. However, Megatronus does not believe a mere human and his crew of Bots could harm a being such as him, dispensing Cyclonus. However, as the Autobots arrive to fight Megatronus, he, unable to transform and not yet at full power, ends up being beaten up by the Commander's team. Vanquished, he admits he underestimated the Commander and would not commit that mistake again, before transforming into jet mode and leaving with the menace he would be far more powerful in their next encounter.

Fog of War: Doomsday
Megatronus gathers his followers in the Fog of War to ambush the Commander's troops. Once the Autobots meet him at the end of the path, he reveals that what he sought in the Fog of War was one of his "ancient Relics", and teases that greater things than they can possibly comprehend are to come, before flying-off once again.

Consequences I: Acenssion
The Autobots and Decepticons both discover their leaders and some of their most important allies are missing, and soon New Quintessa is affected by a strange energy signal that seems to induce the desire for endless battle. Soon, they discover that the entity responsible is none other than Megatronus, who was constructed an ancient machine to drain the sparks of all Bots and acquire more powerf for unknown ends.

Consequences II: Unforgotten
As they make their way through the ensued chaos, the Autobots learn from the affected Bots that Megatronus has become far more powerful than when last they met, for he was now at his full potential and in the past months wondered for New Quintessa in search of his Prime Relics, much to his success.

Consequences III: Tomb of Relics
After defeating both Optimus and Megatron after their sparks were harvested and replaced by Megatronus, Optimus joins the Commander's team in his mission to stop the threat at hand, despite being severely wounded. The Autobots make their way to the Tomb of Relics to stop Megatronus's machine from harvesting the sparks of all Bots in New Quintessa, and despite being drained in strength and resources, with the help of the Commander the Autobots are able to defeat Megatronus and seal him within his own Tomb of Relics, forever.

Out of Time
After traveling back in time with the Chrono-Vector, Jetfire and Wheeljack followed a corrupted Shockwave to the Forge, revealing that they were now trapped two years prior, during the rise of Megatronus, which they themselves helped stopping. As Shockwave's senses are knocked back, the three of them follow the Commander to the Tomb of Relics to stop Megatronus from unleashing a catastrophe once again, brawling him like in the past. The Decepticons soon return to the the Tomb of Relics with reiforcements and the Commander. In their path, they encounter the Heralds of Unicron, who reveal to him that Megatronus is part of a greater scheme, and they now see value in his dark nature. The Decepticons are eventually able to overcome the and meet Shockwave and the Autobots in the Tomb, where they together fight Megatronus one last time. Due to Megatronus already been extensively damaged and mortally wounded, the fight is far easier than before. This time, however, the Autobots do not imprison Megatronus within his own machine, but instead witness as his spark abandons his chassis, which theorically meant he was functionless. Victorious, the Autobots and Shockwave part ways with the past timeline's Decepticons, bidding farewell and returning to their proper timeline.
