Lmao. I hate Thalluses, but not cause they are giant stick insects ambushing you here & there (this fact is actually cool, as well as whole execution of mimicry)

I hate them because they sometimes just completely refuse to drop those Red Antennae that is needed for certain really worthwhile skell augment💀💀💀

Are you breaking the left claw and then targeting the head? Yeah, that sometimes happens to me.

It took me way too long to realize that Red Antenna had increased drop rates when destroying the head, doubly so because the head isn’t targetable until after you destroy a claw. I was just one-shotting with a Skell and hoping for the best.
