How to fight it

EDITORIAL FIGHT PLAN

  1. Check the ground around you; its low posture makes it easy to miss while looking ahead.
  2. Keep the crawler visible and aim deliberately at its low position.
  3. Move into clear ground before fighting so vegetation and debris do not hide it.

Avoid: Losing sight of it at your feet while aiming at standing enemies.
