Help for invisible monsters

[Izalith]

Im losing something? that invisible monster who run arround you and attack you physically, in 1 hit they quit me 50-60 of my HP, i use a entire mag but don't die, how can i dodge the attack? cuz using entire mag don't die and when reload they hit me and 50-60 percent HP less, it's a free hit and easy for kill me

The Bloodsucker shimmer when they are close enough to attack you and just before, when you see that sidestep. save your shots till you see the shimmer, if you have bad trigger discipline set to burst. Also good quality headphones can help you work out which direction they are in due to the huffing/snorting they make as they move.

Attack pattern prediction.
Proper use of volumetric sound cues (you can hear the general direction of danger).
limiting angles of attack (willingly putting yourself in corners).
Staying cool (panik is what bloodsucker needs).

what else.

Aha. shallow water. Can't stay invisible with all dat splashes and slushes

The person is right!
Shotgun to face is really nice to dish out huge damage at once, except there are NO shotguns in the place I assume the player is in

i think they are weaker when visible, but im not sure since i only killed two of them. but it was hell of a fight. they remind me little bit of volatiles from dying light. impossible to kill at begin...

Most retarded enemy I've witnessed in any FPS. I get that I picked a high difficulty setting, but there isn't much in terms of strategy I can do here. It's just sprinting away, hoping my weapon doesn't jam and that I can hit the blur before I get knocked off my feet, 70% of HP gone. And if you try to heal it just hits you again, so really you only have 1 hit you can take.

Especially fun fighting them in a cave. It eats 5+ shotgun shells to the face and keeps going, that's just an exercise in frustration, not a thrilling duel.

All that would be different on a lower setting is that it would get to knock me over more times and that it would eat less shells, but it's still not a fun enemy to engage with. Especially with the garbage peashooters you get.

Also - yeah, shoot the shimmer. Except sometimes it decides to walk up and smack you anyway.

For example these things are called bloodsuckers.
in the previous titles specifically Call of Pripyat there's an area where you have to sneak through a "lair" of these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
I ♥♥♥♥ you not, there's like 20 of them that'll wake-up & bum rush you, and you can watch on Youtube all day long that about 6-8 AR rounds center-mass will kill a single bloodsucker.

Currently, and specifically when you get to the Cave-Sucker in Stalker 2 he'll take upwards of 8 buckshot's to the dome & a mag or two of MP5 Centermass.
The damage/Health system is way off, including on Bandits.

For me the 'Cave-Sucker' took a grenade (he was standing on it) and 6-8 buckshot. on stalker difficulty, their damage is easy to avoid but they're tedious as hell to kill. bandits will take upwards of 5~ish shots (5x45 rounds) to the chest, but always die from one shot to the head. this would make more sense (not much more, mind you) if they weren't just wearing either a soft vest or leather jacket...
