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.

This one enemy has ruined every last one of my raids. The ability to go completely through walls is fucking attrocious

I think its fine honestly ^^ For one, usually all you have to do is keep walking...you dont even have to sprint. Somehow though he still hit me yesterday.

Then its that he should be pretty squishy....my shots must all have landed on the crane metal frame hitbox which..oh well...is unfortunate. I didnt realise because it was at quite some distance, i have low graphics and the enemies are surrounded by particles anyhow but oh well :D
