Tips against MULE?
These dudes keep wrecking me!
They always seem to find me and then chase me til' the depths of hell!
I am sure I can beat them one on one, but they always attack me in packs.
I recently got the BOLA gun.
Any tips? Please!

With the Bola gun. Aim for the head, easy KO.

You take them out with the bola gun but make sure you kick them after so they don't get back up, that's what i've been doing. Also you can hit them with the bike and they don't die on hit.

run and jump past the sensors that mark their territory don't run past them, if they are alerted just get out beyond the red boundaries, further than they can throw a spear - or if determined to cross? just keep going but run serpentine to avoid.

Thanks for all the tips, guys! My problem is when they chase me in groups of 3+!
Thanks, though! Will use all this.
Go to the mule camp and get inside one of their tents then alert them. They will flood in all you need to do is spam the counter move with your strand and the entire camp will be done with giving you a lot of time before they respawn.

You get flagged when you enter their territory, so be careful where you enter and make sure there is nearby cover and no mules are nearby. Then you hide and take them down one by one stealth style.
You can use/build a watchtower before entering mule turf to flag them all and do a headcount as well to help with planning.
You can use smoke for crowd control if you're out numbers. Do not stay in the smoke too long, Sam will cough, you will be unable to use strand or melees. But meh, I'm a man, I like to fight in a disadvantageous situation. Just remember your basic of CQC.

You can take MULE's item when you knock them during the slow motion, so you can use it as a weapon. To throw or to swing, pick your poison.

Bola gun is extremely good provided you either get headshots or take a minute to stomp on their nuts afterward.

Get good with the counter-pulse.

You can counter the scan if you scan at the same time...

If you negate the original ping, the moment you enter their territory, it will make your life 10 times easier. Once you negate that ping, you are not pinged again, unless you get detected by a Mule. So you can do a little stealth, and navigate through camps, by quitely taking out a Mule or two as needed.

Use that melee rope they give you and counter their charge, you can knock them out right after, you can take out groups like that.

When you are aiming with the bola and take one down, immediately disarm the bola to look around. They WILL creep up at you from around structures and rocks.

If you are having problems with groups and you have the bola gun here is my advice, run until you have enough distance between you and them. Then show up the goods, i'm talking bola gun yo :cactuar:
One shoot and they kiss the ground, don't mind the ones struggling concentrate on those who are still up make sure to shoot all of them so you knock them all out, can't never be too safe :case_three:
Even one can turn the tides and that one can be you too :SIandIIRyo:

Once you get pass their scanners it sends wave that their odradeks reply and discover you, this second one you can negate with your own, or you can hide in odradek hologram. You also can unequip everything from your back to fool them, since it is what they scan, or just unequip before you enter their territory.

In close combat you can hold both your hands and bump onto so they lose balance and give you chance to counterattack or run. Or straight up parry their melee attacks, if you equip rope and get it ready. Or you can equip used things from wheel menu in your hand and do additional damage in melee or just throw it for range attack or distract or fool them if you are not in combat yet. They also pretty slow in water, so if you jump with speed skeleton across river you will have them exposed in water.

probably worth noting that you have to progress the story a bit to get the counter pulse.
