Practically everywhere you could meet them, and they are not pleasant encounters.
These encounters are not the most pleasant, since you might lose ammunition and health.
Mutated dogs
One of the most common groups of mutants.
It is a pack of mutant dogs thatrun at high speedtowards the player.
Their strength lies in numbers.
Then they won’t be able to bite you.
The best tactic for these enemies isshooting them with a shotgun at close range.
One or two accurate shots should kill it.
Rats
This is one of the most numerous mutants, moving in a group.
However, they are least life-threatening.
Rats move by jumping towards the player.
If you don’t have any on you,use a pistol.The rats die after one successful shot.
We describedhow to deal with ratsin more detail on a dedicated page in our guide.
The best tactic is to enter a building, hide in the ruins or jump onto a car.
Then the wild boars will not be able to attack you.
Of course, it’s worth shooting them with a shotgun, especially when they are very close.
When it gets very close to you, it deactivates its camouflage, making it visible.
The Bloodsucker will keep doing this until it dies or you run away from it.
A few accurate shots should do the trick.
Aim for the head to inflict the most damage.
Burer
Burer, although looking inconspicuous,is one of the most difficult opponents to defeat.
You will usually find it in locations withlittlelight,i.e.
inside caves or in the underground.
It has extraordinary psionic abilities.
What’s more, if you don’t pick it back up quickly,the Burer will start shooting.
Fortunately,a Burer can’t knock the grenades or a knife out of your hands.
Still, it’s best to keepa mediumdistanceand often hide behind covers when fighting this enemy.
Controller
The Controller is a very strong opponent who deals psionic damage.
As soon as a Controller notices you, a short cutscene will trigger thatwill affect your vision.
It will becomedarkerandthe camera will start to shake.
Every now and then you will noticeghoststhat will run into you andinflictdamage.
Fighting this mutant is far from pleasant.
Moreover, the monster can also control people who will then fight on its side.
The best tactic to kill a Controller isto get close to it and shoot it with a shotgun.
You have to kill this mutant as quickly as possible, otherwise you will keep losing health.
Fortunately, they are not too durable.
A single shot from a shotgun should take them out instantly.
It’s best to let themget close enough so you’re free to hit them easily.
Zombie soldiers
Zombie soldiers are a much weaker version of regular human soldiers.
They look as if they arestunned,often looking down,and they move very slowly.
However, they may appear in a large group.
Depending on the equipment they have, the difficulty of killing them may vary.
Armored Elk
The Armored Elk is a very rare mutation.
You will surely encounter it during theIn Search of a Guidemain mission, where you will have to findTrapper.
Armored Elk is very dangerous.Due to its armored body, the beast is difficult to kill.
It is fast, and can knock you over with its antlers, causing serious injuries.
When it charges at you, you should quicklyhide behind a rock or a tree.
In the meantime, kill smaller creatures with a pistol or machine gun.
While illusions die with a single hot, new dogs will keep appearing until you kill the real psi-dog.
you gotta focus on the real dog and kill it as soon as possible.
If you have the opportunity, reach a high spot as soon as possible, e.g.
the roof of a smaller building or a car.
Chimera
This is a mutant you never want to meet.
It is synonymous witha damage sponge.
It can get shot with 30 shotgun shells at close range, and still survive.
The mutant can kill you with two attacks.
Each of them practically always causesbleeding.
This will most often result in your death.
We strongly recommend avoiding fighting this mutant.
You will only lose time, ammunition, and medicine.
If you must fight it,seek shelter by entering a building.
Te mutant is big enough that it should not be able to get inside.
If you attempt to escape,never run in a straight line.
It will always hit you with its leap.
Instead,run while changing directionsto avoid being knocked over.
This is how it lures its victims.
As for the way you should fight it, it doesn’t really differ from a regular dog.
Maybe apart from the fact that it is more durable.
you could climb onto something located higher, so it won’t be able to hit you.
Pyrogeist
Pyrogeist is very similar to a Poltergeist.
However, instead of a cloud of smoke, you will notice a flyingflame.
Moreover, he will not throw objects at you, butcreate fire anomalies under your feet.
Pseudogiant
It is a human-sized mutation,very durable and quite fast.
You should consider fighting this punch in of mutant as a last resort.
It’s not Chimera level, althoughyou will waste a lot of ammo trying to kill it.
