Technopaths major weakness?

[Ryukan]

Everybody seems to use EMP, typhon powers, q-beam, disruptor or shotgun to kill those, but they take way to much ammo and time on nightmare, the most efffective way that i found to kill them by now is gravity, all u need to do is lure them to a highground or climb walls with the goo gun and when they are high enough trying to kill u, just shoot a few goo at them and they ll fall to their deaths instantly even at nightmare difficulty, is there any more effective way to handle them?

Stun gun they are considered machine so they get stun longer.
Usually I avoid combat if able.

Thats the disruptor gun, stunning is nice, but the ammo is rarer and the goo gun actually insta-kill it instead of just stunning if the target is high enough.

Stun gun ammo fabrication plan is right in the arboretum and it is not that expensive to make. Problem with gloo gun, on higher difficulties it takes so long to stun the technopath that it can easily throw out one of its balls of death and just murder you outright. Stun gun at least completely disables it for a few seconds, since it is considered a robot.

If you're playing Mooncrash, the new melee weapon stunlocks the hell out of them.

use stun gun once , then use wrench depending on infection level and quality of wrench you may stun it again

thats most effective and "safe easy foul proof way" i got on it , works every time and uses very little ammo

Beat it to death with a wrench

One null-wave or EMR for draw close and personal (or goo if possible). Then stun this guy with taser and strafe (big guy cannon shot if not view targer) or just stand (on normal and less) and electolize master of machine.

the Psychoshock power is extremely useful against them. after a couple of hours, i maxed it to 3 because how useful it is.

I dont know. I only played on Nightmare and never had an issue with them. A fully upgraded stun gun and skill tree 3 to 4 shot them. I dont know how thats too much ammo vs using a ton of gloo to get high above it then a ton more turning him into stone.....

yeah if you have half decent melee you can use stun gun only once or twice and ammo for it is quite abundant
