Lurker behemoth is annoying and has unparalleled reach

[Neobaka]

Not sure what the actual name of the mob is but it's armored one that can sprout 3 tentacles up from the ground. 2 spawned, managed to kill one but didn't have the ammo to kill the last one so I though I could outdistance it to the extract. Of course it spawns in the 3 tentacles but i figure after some distance it should have to uproot itself and follow me. Halfway across the map still these tentacles popping up after i run past them. Well damn how far can they go

Well across the map it seems. You have to waste ammo killing these tentacles otherwise you'll be attacked clear across the map from where it first started to attack you. Or kill the main body. They keep introducing these enemies which you have to fight or be pestered by them you die and are reinforced far away and this one is armoured and also doesn't give you time to reload any anti-tank weapons. Sure is a lot of fun when several spawn at once /s

Impaler. The tentacles can be problematic but they can be driven off by enough damage. Find the big elephant sized thing and shoot it in the head with the biggest guns you have.

Skill issue. throw a 500 at it.

I understand that but i figured you'd be able to at least gain some distance to give time to reload or just avoid it overall. But if you do not take out the tentacles they will continue to spawn on top of you regardless of how far you move away from the main body

You barely get anything out of interacting with the tentacles so just go shoot the face or throw a bomb.

to kill it is very easy and simple its very weak
1st you need to find the body and wait for it to put its arms in the ground
thats when it will reveal its orange weak point and every and any gun will do dmg to the exposed aria

shooting the arms only stops them from slapping you it dose no dmg to the actual bug

Again I'm just noting that if you were to try and avoid fighting it or get some time to reload and come back you can't since it seems to able to attack you with the tentacles regardless of how far you move away

tbh charger enemies feel really strong, so it s no wonder lurker has to be strong too.

You're not supposed to run away from something that's standing still and very vulnerable most of the time it's on the map.

[Rilgar55]

im more worried about how he can basically perma stun you with its tentacles

[Wasp_]

He legit plants himself into the ground and is completely vulnerable, the whole point of the thing is to stop you from running, so throw a 500k at it and go on with your day its not too hard.

[Hand's Hermit Permit]

Skill issue. It holds still. Just throw a stratagem at it, or attack its big front weak point while it has tentacles in the ground.

Stop running from it like a p***y and get bodied by tentacles. Run TOWARD it and take it out fast.

The Impaler.

They take up the spawns for chargers/titans, so it's kind of a win.

They die in 1 okishly placed 500kg/OPS

You can out run them and not even waste a single shot. Dodging the tentacles takes some skill.

So far, I haven't had tentacles follow me beyond maybe 35 m from the main body.

They could potentially be killed with a tesla tower after they have planted their tentacles and aren't moving from the spot, though it may take some time.

After planting their tentacles, they expose a weakspot that can apparently be damaged even with only LIGHT penetrating weapons (any basic weapon), so long as you aren't carrying an arc based weapon, you can kill it, unlike say, chargers or titans.
