Inconsistent health on Bile Titans?

[Dimcules]

Basically just the title. I don't know why but Bile Titans seem to have inconsistent health pools between different missions/planets.

Yesterday I was going around 2-shoting Titans with the Railgun but today it took 5+ with a orbital railcannon strike.

No it wasn't previous team damage or lack thereof because almost all the occasions that I killed the titans in I was duelling them.

Anyone else experiencing similar?

No you weren't.

Titan's take 3 shots to the head and far more on their other body parts. Yes, they fixed the mouth part a long while ago.

Sometimes it feels like that i understand but there is something more to it.
The shots sometimes feel very funky with the railgun in some lobbys cause of the connection. You'll notice a slight delay also in picking items off the ground.
Or shooting the legs of chargers and needs more than 2 shots.

I've had a Bile titan get hit by 500kg bomb (that got stuck in the body or leg) and they just walked it off...

I do like the railgun of easy use against chargers with the 2 leg shot combo.
Only it feels like you need a load of railgun shots sometimes for the titans, that i can agree with. Currently i'm running the Spear, recoilles or disposable rockets to take care of them in one shot cause every one else is just running railgun atm.

No matter what game i join one perfect Spear or rocket to the head specially when they open the mouth it's a one shot.

someone told me that it has something to do a natural spawning titan/charger vs a Joel spawned titan/charger. Apparently Ads spawned in by Joel are tougher but Honestly I have no idea if any of it is true, i just like playing the game lol

Judging by the sheer number of games happening simultaneously, I doubt the theory of someone manually monitoring your game and hand spawning enemies

i've read some trend regarding on the inconsistency of this issues. it could be latency, or.. the host is on PS5 that's why they said it is easy to kill..or someone joined your game while they are on PS5.

We had 3 bile titans spawn when trying to extract.
They were able to withstand 500kg and Orbital Railcannons along with 20+ Railgun shots.

There is something seriously off with whoever is messing with the games... joel..

I think Bile titans get tougher as the match progresses.
I 1 shot a bile titan about 3 minutes into a kill 2 bile titan mission. Then we messed around getting all the side objectives before killing the second one. Wouldn't you know it the sumbitch took 3 perfect shots to the mouth before falling. Tough guy that one.

Are you trolling?
After reading my post youre : *3 shots* *tough guy*

Am guessing the difficulty is 5-7.

I can assure you this is incorrect, I’ve defeated many Bile Titans at the end of the match with ease on higher difficulty levels, while I had some games where right at the start Bile Titans tank hits like a champ.

Literally watching 3 people Railgun a single bile-titan in the jawline.
between 10 to 20+ shots per titan.

These people were capable of 1 shotting titans last week.

It's subjective but yes, I've noticed their HP seems to swing wildly sometimes.
Theoretically a charged shot from a Railgun to the mouth while it is preparing to spit should kill it. It often doesn't.

[Frostbeast]

Orbital Railcannon will oneshot a Titan IF you destroy the green belly and his neck. It will do a lot of dmg. For that, i like to use the Scorcher weapon. Because its very effective for that.

Fun fact. If you destroy its neck sack, it cant vomit anymore.

[Akameka]

Fond of the scorcher/railcanon combo too.

I just don't understand how people can kill thoses in 2-3 headshots with raillgun.
Meanwhile I just shoot the head/mouth if I can after charging for 2-3s.... and shoot.... and shoot... and shoot... and the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ just never dies (eventually, he does but.... yeah.)

I saw a video. In that, the player shot 4 titans in a row, 1 shot, one kill.
He shot at the cheeks of the Titan. Not the mouth.

I one shot 4 titans myself in a game last night, popping their foreheads like it's nothing
