How to Counter All Hard Enemies in Starship Troopers: Extermination

To counter bugs in Starship Troopers, here are some strategies and tips for dealing with different enemy types:

Drones:

  • Use your knife to one-hit kill them.
  • The melee weapon has an area-of-effect attack, allowing you to kill multiple bugs close together.
  • Jumping and moving diagonally can help you avoid their attacks.
  • They die in one headshot or several body shots.

Warriors:

  • Use your knife to knock them back into a stagger animation with a well-timed hit.
  • Rockets can one-hit kill them.
  • The Emancipator can stun them, and the sniper can stagger enemies.
  • The MK1 Carbine has a higher rate of stagger despite dealing less damage.

Jackal Snipers (Gunners):

  • Aim for the orange weak points on their sides and the C shape on their front with a long-range weapon.
  • Take cover and look for the firing line when they are shooting near you.
  • Avoid using the Rocket Launcher against them due to bullet spread.
  • Prioritize killing Gunners over other bugs.

Tiger Elite:

  • Use a scan grenade to make them take double damage.
  • With Hawkeye, it takes 30 hits to kill them.
  • Rockets can take them out in 3-6 shots.

Grenadiers:

  • Use a scan grenade followed by 3 rockets to kill them.
  • Grenade Launchers can take them out in 5-6 shots.
  • With Hawkeye, it takes 42 hits to kill them.
  • Be cautious of their blue fireball attacks, which have a large area-of-effect.

Ambushes:

  • Stagger the closest and most dangerous bugs to buy yourself breathing room until your team catches up or you reach a safer location.
  • In a pinch, shooting a rocket at your feet right before you die can send you flying, potentially towards extraction or away from the enemy.

Remember, these strategies may vary depending on the specific game mechanics and updates, so it’s always a good idea to adapt and experiment in the game to find the most effective tactics.
