did you tried on unarmoured part? (I don’t remember if paralysis effect ignores armour but I dont think so). Also, try paralysis sniper rifle, it has a lot of piercing on. ---

First you need to lower her armor to less than 30 on body parts which you will approach and attack with melee. ---

I got rid of the armor leg that the soldier stood in, but the action box when paralyzing is always in the middle of the body scylly even when I stand at her foot. Do I have to get rid of a certain part of my body armor? and if so, what part of the body do I need to get rid of armor for paralyzing to work? thank you very much for your help ---

on one side it works to remove torso but from the front it does not work. So I don’t know what to remove from the front attack? ---

I can’t tell you what to remove as I haven’t tested it. But I would assume that it would probably be: - legs and torso if you attack from the side, - arms, front legs, torso and head if you attack from the front, - abdomen, rear legs and torso if you attack from the back. As @kane said it is better to use paralyzing sniper rifle from Synedrion. You can aim precisely, from afar and you deal nice amount of paralysis. 🙂 ---

Always used 3 assaults with dash to get up in their face with the neurazers myself… From the front worked everytime i tried it, though i think i did always try it on cannon scyllas after shooting the cannons off with a pair of snipers. Without a doubt has to be an unarmored (or armor stripped) part of it. I know i had tried surrounding one once and most guys did zero paralysis. ---

Neurazer has 10 damage, 40 piercing, so unless you hit a part with 50+ armor it should apply paralysis. Going on the side, I never had a miss. I guess it was always hitting legs with 30/40 armor.
