Statues (for solo pve players)

[sick arch]

Yeah we need a better way of dealing with them other then frags we have ways that work better and worse for most others but the statues are just bullet sponges

[gentle talon]

I am asking to make it fair.
They are already fair. you want to make them completely neglible. Pretty much like all other enemies aside from shy girl.

[fair maple]

Not negligible. They can have buffed damage, they can be faster. There are plenty of ways to make them harder yet more fair to deal with if you have ability and equipment. They are just bullet sponges at the moment, nothing more!

[gentle talon]

You are not supposed to shoot at them.

And you are not supposed to kill everyone. You can avoid.

[fair maple]

That is the problem. So the game could balance better the amount of different enemies spawning closer to them because in some situations I cant run, I can’t shoot so I just… die!

[gentle talon]

You either got unlucky or it was entirely your fault.

Bring more grenades. 8+ is enough. Or don't engage.

Simple as.

[fair maple]

Not my fault. I had a mission where I had to kill a invisible. 3 statues started running at me when I arrived in the mission place so I had to kill two invisibles, deal with statues and a soldier (pve) came at the end maybe because of the sounds. You see, I am not asking to make them easier. They need to either give tools to deal with them if we need to engage more than just grenades or take care of better spawn points. One of both solutions would work, but the way it is right now is just randomly unfair

[gentle talon]

They need to either give tools to deal with them
You have your vision and legs. Plan your engagements better, bring more grenades. This is entirely on you. And if something goes wrong - losing is part of the game as well.

You are not meant to be winning all the time.

If fact, PvE enemies(Including statues) need a buff to make them more like shy girl in terms or danger. this will make players think twice before engaging.

Make PvE great again.

[gentle talon]

And yeah, we already have ene,y that was literally murndered with such ideas - flowermen. We don't need to oversimplyfy it. to make it "fair" we need, on contrary, buff it since now it way too heavily player-favoured.

[fair maple]

I agree with the dmg buff part tho

[unkempt snow]

mhm, avoid map that have them if you play solo
because the only way you can "avoid" them there is to slowly walk back for a whole a mile looking at them what makes you an easy target in pvp and even other monsters
while squads can simply cover each other backs and just run after each other
statues should just deaggro to you if "they" break vision to you by any kind of wall while you've been looking at them, simple as that

[fair maple]

Yes. But i am solo and that is why I am struggling so much 🥹

[gentle talon]

Bro, play the game please, ok?

slowly walk back for a whole a mile looking at them
You can literally just turn around and run away from them. they won't ever be able to get you. They are slow as hell.

makes you an easy target in pvp and even other monsters
Any monster will put you in worse position if you are in PvP. That's basic logic. Catching other players while theyr are vulnerable is a part of the tactic.

statues should just deaggro to you if "they" break vision to you by any kind of wall

1. They shouldn't if you're close.
2. They already deaggro if you are like 30-40 meters away from them. You can go to riflerange of military base and see it yourself.

P.S. People should stop blaming the game from their OWN mistakes and bad plays. Also whole "Make PvE easier" pipeline should be squashed because next suggestion will be "Remove monsters from PvP"

[sick arch]

The way they changed it not everyone had grenades unlocked new players won’t have any how do they deal with them

[gentle talon]

They are just locked behind the quest now...

Maybe warhammer could crush them with like 8 strikes tho...

[sick arch]

It’s takes 50 + it hammer I beat on one tonight just to try and got tired and dropped a nade on it

Statues (for solo pve players)

[neat dome]

We can even fuse grenades now, instant craft for 3 AM. I carry three in every raid no matter what, always the odd statue house or you need to clear an extract or whatever. Failing that, run away, break line of sight and round a corner, no more following statue.

[ember vale]

I've killed statues with less than ten knife hits. If you can't kill them you can easily outrun them.

[fair maple]

Ten knife hits? You mean cheap knives? How so? There are many reports of 40+ hammer hits without success 😅

[ember vale]

Bayonet knife, bring one or two melee 2 chronogenes
