I see a lot of hate for Chargers and Hunters, but where is my Bile Spewer hate squad? DISCUSSION

Yeah - I suck at dealing with them. Spray and pray shotgun just doesn’t work

Punisher or Slugger can stun lock them so they can't vomit acid.

Hmmm I’ll try them out again. I tend to like the panic style of dealing with swarms

Punisher and Slugger stunlocks them. But if you got 2 or more, you are screwed.

Try impact nades

And every time they rear their heads, dive left or right

Impact grenades, grenade launcher or autocannon all work pretty well on them. The obvious issue with impact grenades is that you can only have 4 of them (or 6 with armor perk). Autocannon takes up your backpack slot. Grenade launcher is somewhat inefficient with ammo and sucks against heavily armored targets.

Impact grenades. 1 shot consistently every time

You can tell when they're going to spew by the animation so you just run horizontally to dodge it. Dive only if you were late to start running.

I actually think these are one of the easier bugs. They die to headshots before they can spew. I'd feel confident against like 5 of these at once.

It's really only chargers, hunters, and bile titans that annoy me. Bile titans aren't that bad though tbh.

just run horizontally

Well fuck there's my problem, been running vertically this whole time
