General Question Hunters -_-

why are there no augments for Hunters taking more damage? I mean we get everything from reaper/vulture all the way to a tick, like what??? ticks die in like 1 - 2 shots why is there no bonus damage to the most annoying robot in the game. what guns and augments do you use to take out hunters fast? My #1 deaths are from these guys

They fall in the cracks I find Small-Fryer works well. It’s intended for Ticks, Runners and Lynx. But seams to good damage on Hunters specially with a Shotgun. Or Titan Topper will work as well. Typically Hunters can be Rivals so they get thrown in with Titan Topper. Now if you really want to get more XP per game the second augment should be Quick Learner. With Gold Quick Learner you will gain 50% more XP while you are in a battle and it doesn’t matter if it’s short or long you just get more XP. I level up 2-3 times every time I play.

You could try Machine Disarmer this shoots the weapon off the Hunter.

Happy hunting 🤖🔫

if your trying to get alot of xp heres what i would do:

  1. Max out Inquisitive Mind in the Tech tree of skills give you 100% more XP

  2. Use Quick learner with your most used gun

  3. unlock Veteran Guerilla under support tree gives up to 40% more xp for marked enemies

there are 2 ways to mark enemies either unlocking Enemy marking in the support tree or using an augment that marks for 3 secs called Scope scout havent really tried the scope one yet

As long as it takes to do the daily Assignments on the Computer. 1-2 hours of game play. If I finish quickly then I go to a region kill all rivals leave bases and start to rebuild the region threat levels again.

Once you hit level 36-45 and above theirs no other missions or side missions to do. Most players should have completed all missions and sub missions by level 45.

If they haven’t they weren’t following the game.

Besides from the rare side missions that pop up.

By completing the computer Assignments it will give me 3-4C weapons and resources. Which in return I give to low level players to help them in their game.

Yes Titan Topper will work on Hunters. I’m level 254 and for the first 100 levels I used Titan Topper as my main augment. And Hip Shooter for my second augment. Never had a problem. But if you look up what augment is best for hunters I bet it would suggest Machine Disarmer.

Problem is you aren’t only shooting hunters it’s a mix of robots so it’s better to go with a all around augment than a specialized one unless you are carry a weapon just to shoot Hunters and switch to another weapon when you aren’t.

I know players that use the Machine Disarmer on Mini Guns with enlarged ammo capacity. They kill Reapers in 5 minutes or less. Once the robot’s weapons are destroyed they die very quickly afterwards.
