Drilbur Posted May 16, 2016 Is there a certain way of fighting them or do they simply have a lot of health? I notice sometimes I feel like my shots are not effecting them at all and other times they die pretty easily. 0 Share this post Link to post
Otus Posted May 16, 2016 You have to shoot them in their soft backside. The front is armored. 0 Share this post Link to post

Janus3003 Posted May 16, 2016 They're not too bright, and they'll ram into walls and whine about it for a second or two. It's kind of like Sideshow Bob stepping on rakes. 0 Share this post Link to post

PureSlime Posted May 16, 2016 I like vaulting over them and getting their backs that way. 0 Share this post Link to post

When your shots impact an enemy, it it shows some kind of purple shield-like effect (don't know how to explain better), it means that you are shooting an armored part of the enemy, so they take recuded damage. It's the same with the Mancubus, who you have to shoot in the face or in the belly, or the final boss, which you have to shoot in the face or the big thinking aparatus. Or use something with splash damage. Or - as others pointed out - either jump over the charging Pinky or dodge to the side and unload on his tail/backside. Spectres seem to take much more damage, even if hit from front. 0 Share this post Link to post

hardcore_gamer Posted May 16, 2016 For some reason their front isn't armored in snapmap. 0 Share this post Link to post
LittleBurger Posted May 16, 2016 They can tank most things thrown at them as well (from the front at least). 0 Share this post Link to post
julz_d Posted May 16, 2016 Hit them with the plasma stun mod and then give them a plasma enema 0 Share this post Link to post
EternalWolf Posted May 16, 2016 Get near a wall, let em charge at you, double jump out of the way, shoot them from behind while they are stunned. 0 Share this post Link to post

Just stun 'em, circle around, and blow their asses off. I preferred the SSG for the "finishing touch." ;-) 0 Share this post Link to post
tuo Posted May 16, 2016 TIL: I should have aquired that stun mod, instead of the second gauss mod ;) But isn't it awesome how every weapon - and even nearly every mod - has it's place in the game regarding certain enemies? 0 Share this post Link to post
