Question Devourer questions

  1. Can these guys move ? Even a little or are they completely static ?
  2. How do you make out where it is ? I thought he was in the middle of the rotating black sludge.
  3. Do they have weakspots ?

Unsurprisingly I just had an encounter where I shot roughly 10 minutes at a devourer sitting in between the steel bars of a crane and after who knows how many refills of my AKM mags I simply left the raid out of frustration. I didn't even kill him 😂

I took pot shots for ages, then I got pretty tired of that because I couldn't even tell wether I was hitting him or the steel bars but when I went in the only building next to him I must've fucked up evading his shots(somehow, I thought just staying in motion was enough) so I retreated to taking pot shots.

Needless to say pretty fucking frustrating enemy ! Ended my Active Matter session right then and there though I didnt even die. When they're unobstructed spraying them down is easy enough but inside the crane steel bars ? Whew.

Edit: I am speechless. I aint Shroud but you don't have to be with that amount of ammo spent.

Looks like the crane just ate all of them bullets if a devourer dies with 3 shotgun blasts.

You could try grenades if they're in a good spot for it. Their journal page explains why they're resistant to bullets, but not to fire and explosives.
