Finally took down my 1st Exo
For the last few days I've assumed [edit] small Exos and up are invulnerable. But I finally decided to put it to the test tonight.

I cleared an area of soldiers around the medium mech, then opened up with the grenade launcher. Ironically, it must have been hurt already, cause it died in 4 shots. Underwhelming!

Since I had a ton of ammo left, I decided to lob a few at a large mech... that didnt so much as annoy it.

I would love to know if all AI characters have a finite health pool and thus can be killed... even if it would require a lot of ordinance.

[Edit: Europan Exo yes, the small bastards]

So the small Exos (Europan Exo on Z, not the Medium Mechs) actually only take 4 grenades to kill. It's wild.

Oh, and AI short of bosses (Toothy, Grabber, Courage Cyborg Mother) can all be killed. Corpse Tank can but apparently has 100 grenades of HP or something.

I can believe that. I found one getting ganked heavily when I needed the quest and it almost won the battle vs something like 20 soldiers, 4 t-90s, and some drones, and me also taking potshots at it.

Not true, VeryBadScav made a video trying to kill toothy and the damn thing didn't died after hundreds of grenades with a full lobby.

To be fair, it might have been hobbled by the time I got to it. I wouldn't bank on 4 grenades just yet.

But it does mean you can spec for them in places like Mexh Trenches where they block your movement so much.

toothys got about 100 million hp, mother/courage and orgamech also either have 100 million or 1 billion hp. A grenade does 1000. So youd need about 100 thousand grenades to kill a full hp toothy

Mediums are killable, but they require something like 30-40 Grenades to kill, so that's impractical to the extreme, especially with how fast mediums will kill you

And finally, there's some enemies that are unkillable, those being the Eurussian Grabber(the Robot Dog of OOF in night shifts), Toothy, the Bag Mech(I forget what its name is, but it has a sync kill where you get stuffed in a bad for processing) and finally Mother Courage
Funnily enough theyre not unkillable they just have 1 billion hp. So thats about 1 million grenades. Which doesnt really make sense that a mediums require 40 or which is about 40k hp and then bam 1 biilion hp as the next level edit: sorry im wrong toothy has 100,000,000 million hp not 1 billion like the mother and dog so about 100,000 grenades for him.
From an existing topic about which ones are killable including a quote my previous commenter quoted

Edit: also congratz on the first Exo exterminated, have yet to do so myself

Congrats on the exo kill, at the moment it only takes 4 direct hits from the m79 grenade launcher at most to kill an Exo. This has been confirmed from multiple players, the medium mechs can also be brought down and you can actually strip a lot of the armaments off the Europan ones, both shoulder launchers and the back mounted Minigun all can be blown off by 1 grenade hit or 1 anti tank rifle hit. Actually killing them takes significantly more (80+ shots) and they will try shooting you with their remaining weapons while you do it. The Euruskan mediums don't appear to have any destroy able parts but they also only have a rifle and some people say they take far less shots to kill but they might have a headshot hotbox / bonus that people got that just isn't really known about. The Hinds seem to take a lot of grenades to bring down but only 2 shots from the 20mm anti tank rifle to the rotor assembly above the cockpit in my experience
Hmm good ;-)

I haven't killed any myself, I just started killing hunters. I already have 2 Nade launchers but haven't used them yet. But I enjoyed watching the hind destroy 2-3 exos on SE ...

(Yes, of course I took the parts afterwards, it felt so dirty that I had to take a shower xD)

EXOs seems to take 4 grenades in the upper part, and Up to 6 direct hit if not (or it might be the HK version that is slightly more resilient ?)

A medium EU mech can be brought down by 12+ grenades. IDk the exact number because it can be damaged by ennemies beforehand. But about a little more than a dozen seems to do the trick. Altough they can Oneshot you with a direct hit ( at 1600 HP at least) so that can be difficult to pull out.

24 shots into medium mech and he was still fine,

Then IDK. The two time I destroyed them, they got downed in about 12 grenades from M79 to the head/upper torso area. dropped about 3 gear boxes from EXOs loot table, and one on the body itself.

One was in mech trenches and sure he fought a little but only against a few light weapon fire, nothing heavy hitting. And second was in Scorched Enclave. Could have been heavily damaged, but I didn't see them engage in any extended fight so probably not.

EU version, I didn't try yet on the Eruskian ones.

Think it is like this. Nothing invincible, but should take more than 4 players can bring in.

how long does it take for an Mech to cool off enough to collect the supplies?
