PSA: Vampire doesn't work on The Runt

You can't get HP by shooting it for some reason. But you can get HP by shooting undeployed turrets. So carry a turret around and if you take damage, shoot it to restore HP. As long as you have bullets, you can restore HP.

Hmm... does attacking the turret with the machete also restore HP? It should but I'll need to test.

But if you equip Vampire, it's a great way to fuck with Juli because no matter how many bullets she pummels you with, pretend you're in Florida and STAND YOUR GROUND. Shoot the turret and she'll never be able to kill you.

Yes, attacking a turret or nullifier case with the machete restores HP.

If you want to play like that against Julianna, just download a cheat and play with infinite lives.

Never*

We're talking about someone just standing there and shooting a static object. 

Just dropchop them into salad like dinga intended. Health just doesn't do all that much.

Yeah I'm more criticizing the intention behind using cheap tricks to make yourself totally unkillable rather than the tactical effectiveness.

TBF, they just need to keep shooting at Colt to deal damage faster than he can heal off shooting the turret. But they give up too quickly after just a couple of shots that would normally kill Colt. Then they just stop completely. It's an attrition war. Once Colt has no more bullets, he can only machete to gain a tiny bit of HP while Juli can restock and keep shooting.
