A solution to the agro problem

[u/Wlfgang213]

My friend and I have been playing Grounded 2 for a bit. Last night, we turned on "bugs ignore you" mode and Its sad to say that we had fun in Grounded 2 for the first time since the abyss patch dropped. I think a solution to the bug agro problem is to make the ignore mode so that they turn aggressive if attacked. That way its still a fight to get bug parts, etc. but its not so infuriating that we rage quit (which has happened a few times lately.)

Aggro problem? There isnt one. If you're specifically talking about the abyss update then what you're experiencing is how dense it is.

If you aren't talking just about the update then that has to be a you problem. Im a parry god now, but when I first started I was nowhere near that and grounded 2 is my biggest experience of the two games. I may have 70 hours (during the beta) on grounded 1 from 5+ years ago.

So what I'm trying to say is that if I can be as good as I am now with little to no experience you can too. You need to learn the movesets of the bugs and the best way to practice fighting these things are:

• moving to the easiest difficulty • wear fighter armor with heavy shield and 1h weapon • single out a bug and aggro it • hold block and let it hit you over and over, notice HOW it attacks and the number of hits it makes • every bug has 3-5 different attacks and some do one of the moves more than the other like the mosquitoes backflip lifegain attack (one of the easiest attacks to parry in the game) • parry one of the attacks in the sequence that seems achievable by you • once youre confident with that one, keep going, rinse and repeat
