Honestly automatons are so much easier than terminids IMO. The automotons are sparse but tough while the bugs. Just. Keep. Coming.
I think the robots are much harder for me because they shoot my turrets. Winning with a four turret load out is brutal.
Try a different load out, soldier. Plenty of strategems available for delivering scorching hot Liberty to the filthy metal scum
Counter point, I would rather deal with 10 hulks than 1 charger.
I’ve learned to dodge and outrun chargers with a few rocks, but there is no outrunning a rocket barrage from half a map away.
Sometimes I just walk in circles around the charger and hope someone eventually kills it before the hunters get me. Usually when my machine gun is empty.
NGL, unless one gets the jump on ya, the ol’ Orbital strat followed up with a couple grenades lobbed underneath as they run over them, and simply sidestep while they crumple in the dirt past you. Hell, if you aim the strat just right, they’ll skid to a dead stop at your feet. It’s a singularly emboldening moment, worth a fuckyeah! … Until the second one blindsides you into a fine red mist. ^Clever girl.
One is an inconvenience, but when you have three, plus an ungodly amount of bile spitters it becomes quite a handful.
Your story is why I play this game though, it’s so badass.
Bile spitters? You mean those titans? Even two is an “ungodly amount” of those. How many are you talking, exactly? 😅😶
I mean the fat brood mother things that spit acid, not the titans, the titans can be a handful.
Roger that. 🤓
Compare to 3 flame thrower hulks and an ungodly amount of tank, including some gatling tanks. Also, the a drop of 8 rocket devastators.
Chargers ain’t shit til there is 6 of em. Just walk around them or dive if they catch you off guard. Plenty of heavy weapons take them out fairly quick if you have one guy runnin distraction and stunning them with nades
Fucking what?! 6?! Jeesus, man. I thought that 3 was enough to make me nope TFO, but 6? Why are you even still in the area at that point?
Probably playing on higher difficulties. Though to be fair, they did reduce their spawn. It does seem like you deal with them inefficiently though. A single EAT, recoiless or spear shot from the front in their head takes them out. Grab EATs, a jump pack, and light armor with stamina boosters - the bugs can’t reach you unless they are white. Prioritize hunters, jump away if encountering a spewer or a charger getting too close. You can jump up a cliff if you need to drop them (but you shouldn’t have to, since you should be dropping EATs everywhere on cooldown). An upgraded gatling takes care of the swarm, an upgraded cannon does as well, but will also take out the charger with enough time (but for chaff, gatling is better). If two people on your team have EATs you should be instantly able to kill all the chargers that come at you.
Time to put in some hours, then! Thanks! 🤩✊🏽
Until the recent patch it want uncommon to have half a dozen chargers and titans both active. Now the devs balanced it towards more of the lower bugs so we have to deal with swarms of god damn hunters lol
Chargers are easy with some good EATs. One shot to the face.
