Possible Weakness for Harvester spawning hunters

General Discussion

I don’t know if there is any component that you can shoot that can stop the harvester but I thought I saw some speakers on the harvesters back and thought maybe thats whats spawning the hunters, is there a weakness

you have 15 seconds when you engage harvester before he calls reinforecemnts. my best idead how to do this is to sneak near to his back as possible and flush him down otherwise you will face unlimited waves of enemies. also when you kill last hunter he will immediately drop new wave. or use emp when you want to reset his timer for drop

Harvs won’t summon hunters if you:

  1. Pop it with an emp rocket
  2. Attack it from behind & stay behind them
  3. Dont let it see you at all…

It takes a bit of dancing but I tried it on all 3 modes, & it works. Drawbacks is that you have to get close enough & not be seen. It’s easier in limited cover & open terrain.

Bug? I’ve attacked a harv & took it down with 50 cal fire. The music stopped & I got my xp. I went to collect the loot & hunters auto spawned. No falling from the sky or anything. It was all kinds of David Copperfield.

EMP the harvester. You can also use sticky flares to make the hunters attack the harvester, but this isn’t super effective at taking down the harvester. It definitely feels satisfying though.
