>>719375727>Equips dominator>Bullies every single enemy unit with less than armor class 4
>>719375727Why are they so fucking tanky on top of everything else? The whole idea behind stealth assassin units is that they're supposed to be glass cannons who are difficult to spot, but easy to kill. The most annoying thing about Stalkers is finding one and having it still almost one-shot you while you're blasting it
>>719377821The idea with them, along with the predator stalkers, is that the devs were unsatisfied with everyone just soloing with an AT weapons on their #3 slot. So they basically decided to spam non armored high HP unit which can only be reliably handled with machine guns, etc. Literal jeet devs thinking they know better and can't live to stand players having fun so they gave us the "challenge".
>>719377821I like that the moment one is spotted the entire team freaks out and it becomes priority one to find the nest and kill it
>>719377969See >>719377735.In theory it gives the lib concussive and tenderizer etc a niche, but in practice you can just shit on them with the Dominator. After all, the best form of crowd control is making the enemy dead instantly. The fact that each shot staggers like hitting them with an SUV going 60 is just a bonus.It does something insane like 16,000 damage per reload, (I don't recall exactly off the top of my head)
>>719377973>Freak outNot really. The reaction is probably deriving from annoyance because the nest is hard to find and is part of the side objectives.
>>719378151My mistake, it's like 3000 per reload but 16000 or some other high ass number DPS.(200 damage x rpm)
>>719375727>huff glue>grab grenade launcher and supply backpack>run into fully occupied heavy nest and blow it all up>run away and blow up all the spore spewers and shrieker nests without a hellbomb>blow up the stalker nests too>use all reinforcements doing this>don't extract because I'm dead, leaving all the samples 200m away in front of a lidar terminalDo what you must. I have already won.
>>719375727No, wait, come back and keep doing it.
>>719377821Because that’s exactly why they’re so terrifying. They’re a super well designed unit. Four people with pistols can drop one in a second, but a lone person even with an HMG has near zero room for error so stay fucking frosty if you’re solo and stick with your battle buddies if you’re smart. Even after a year no enemy in the game is as pants shittingly “oh fuck we have to deal with this right fucking now” as discovering the map has a Stalker lair on it. I will straight up suicide to destroy them.
>>719379165The hd2 general on /vg/ insisted these guys needed to be added to normal enemy patrols/spawns and I said they were the coolest unit in the game since they only show up under specific conditions, are very dangerous, and have a clear counterplay, but they all get salty and ACTUALLY THEY'RE SHIT AND USELESS AND IT WON'T HURT THEIR IDENTITY TO JUST SPAWN THEM WHEREVER.IDK man I just don't like hd2g.
>Xbox players join the game>Joel dumps a Predator Strain shitfest on their laps>missions failing left and right because no one is properly equipped to handle Stalkers and Mini Stalkersno anus is safe today...
>stalker>predditor strainAHEM
>>719379469They do seem to spawn in regular mobs in predator planets.>>719379768Based. It still takes like 3 pumps to even put them down but at least it also stuns them a bit.
>>719382502Should've carried a shield generator strategem, chuddy
>>719375727Use your ears.
>>719378207>the nest is hard to findTry using your map dumbass.
>>719385029>Hear a Stalker>Kill it because the Cookout is fantastic>Immediately open map>Recognize Stalker lair layout>Beeline for itIt's easy.
>>719375727>>sneaks behind youUnrealistic premise. They're the noisiest enemy in the game.
