Burers took my guns and now I can't find them
If you encounter a burer and he makes you drop your gun, always prioritize picking your gun no matter what. otherwise he may yeet it somewhere you won't find it anymore. Don't be me :(

Your starter pistol has the quest flag and thus can't be taken from your hands. It's annoying to try to kill a Burer with your starter pistol, but one thing that won't happen (now that it is fixed) is that the Burer can't make you drop it.

Figured out the best way to keep those Burer a-holes from grabbing your gun away - as soon as he's about to do it, open your inventory. It will put your gun away and he can't do anything. VS Vintar seems to be a very good weapon against them too.

Also that happened to me one time, Burer grabbed my favorite shotgun away and it disappeared, had to go back to a save from shortly before.

The problem is those weapons, especially if you leave them on the ground for some time can be used by him to attack you and after that they can fall through the ground (or fall right through as it pulls them from your hands). I once lost my fully kitted out Decider (unique Fora-221) and had to reload earlier save.

If a Burer forces you to drop your weapon your first priority is to pick it up again. Only in very rare circumstances (if physics go wild) you are not able to get it immediately back because the weapon flies [far] away.

As a precaution: save your game before a Burer fight. Those guys telegraph they are present by their footstomps. Use that.

Ran into Orbita underground. Fat ♥♥♥♥ took my sledgehammer before I could even react and yeeted it somewhere I cannot find anymore. They are not difficult to deal with tbf but it's so annoying it can yoink your weapon out of your hands so quick sometimes you can't really react and just make it disappear >:C

the best way to kill burrers is wait for them to come around the corner and blast them with the shotgun, do not try to kill them at a distance because of the shield block/knocking weapon out of hand

I agree. This tactic served me very well.

I will add that if you hide somewhere where the bullet fire cannot hit you, eventually they will walk to your position where you can unload your shotgun into them. Done right and they won't have enough time put their shield up because you will have taken them out.
