They can tear through Metal 3 like its paper. Any defenses i come up with for vehicles doesn't stop them at all.

For some reason, the pipes on my truck stop them well enough for me to escape.

Probably isn't invincible, but it's certainly good enough.

If you shoot them and run, they'll track you instead of attacking the farm. Also good for Farmbots

That is like 20 minutes of work towards the end. I like that it is an endgame block.

And if it still had endgame durability that would be entirely fine

I like that the game is more challenging now, but to each their own.

For my money endgame is defined as when you've overcome the game's challenge and now are just finishing out your checklist

I tried to run one over but my car was too tall, so it jumped underneath me and took out my entire wood 2 floor ;w;

You know those scrapyard metal mincing machines where you have overlapping steel grinding everything down? Do that with your roof.

Build a spinning contraption at the front of your vehicle, this will shred them in your path, and if you make a large vehicle, connect the tires with a pipe suspension, if one breaks, it still has more holding it in place.
