It’s good to know that there are gamers who appreciate the use of the ballista. Since the crossbow is one of my favorite weapons.

I'm really glad to hear that! It feels like there are hardly any people who like the Bolt Thrower. Yet, it brings out the best aspects of the game. Precise handling and situational awareness are absolutely essential. If you've got those skills down, the best gameplay emerges, in my opinion!

The bolt thrower doesn't do any bonus damage to the head so no point taking your time aiming for the head.

@@PointK12Gaming Every weapon has a different multiplier for headshots, handguns have 1.2x while other guns 1.5x to 3x. But no difference for Bolt Thrower in terms of damage, but it's evident that headshots still stagger enemies with the Bolt Thrower so it's not completely useless.

@@arhamsaa Oh yeah, that makes sense! I didn't even consider the bonus damage for the Bolt Thrower at all! I just knew from experience that you can stagger the enemies, and that always seemed very practical to me in case you want to take them out with a melee attack! Thanks anyway for your explanation!

Not completely true the values are just so much lower than the rest that you can't really tell until you shoot the actual plagas with it it's slight but it's there also there's mods on the PC for health bars if you use that you will understand what I'm talking about it's mainly a stagger but you can't hit criticals because only the mines have the power of gunpowder

Incredible work man, I'm so impressed!😮🔥 I wonder, what's the strategy on buying and upgrading the bow thrower on Professional? Like, what's the specific moments I should upgrade?
@PointK12Gaming3 ай бұрын
Well it really depends... In a New Game, you'd need to upgrade the Bolt Thrower as fast as possible if you're planning a run where you only use that one weapon. By the time you face Verdugo, you definitely need the Bolt Thrower at max level just to have a chance! So before the Verdugo boss fight, it's better not to buy the Rocket Launcher and instead use your Pesetas for Bolt Thrower upgrades. Looting and collecting treasures from the start is a must! The next hurdles with the Bolt Thrower are Krauser and obviously Saddler! Btw… thank you so much for the comment, I really appreciate it!

Myself I just played that today. Perhaps since I shot a gun from the start they were out there running. I smashed them all, but I got hit severa times. I don't know how he has so many arrows... Regarding the garradors I killed one easily but the second one was though since it wasn't enough hitting it on the back, it needed to be very precise onto the parasite.
@PointK12Gaming10 ай бұрын
Yeah, you definitely need quite a few bolts, that's true! But if you start collecting resources early in the game, you'll make it work! Well, as for the Antechamber (the double Garrador room), you really should only fire a few shots at the beginning before the Garradors break free. With the bolt thrower, however, you can avoid that. Just make sure you don't get too close to the chained Garradors. Oh yeah, and don't forget to collect resources for attachable mines! With those, you can easily take out the armored Garrador!
@sparda90604 ай бұрын
make bolts from knives you find everywhere. use the bell on 2nd one to give you time to hit it on the back. you can also bait him into the wild swinging, and run behind it and shoot the back. that takes some patience tho.

@PointK12Gaming9 ай бұрын
Yes, essentially that’s how it is! With the Bolt Thrower, you can take out all the Ganados at your leisure without alerting the Garradors. You just can’t get too close to the Garradors. And as soon as you use a second Flash Grenade, they’ll break free. Btw there are plenty of other, much easier methods to defeat the Double Garrador, though. I’ve got a whole playlist on that if you’re interested! ; )

If you struggle with the Double Garrador boss fight, you might not want to try the Bolt Thrower! There are several much easier strategies for this area. A very consistent strategy is to take out the cultists with a rifle as soon as you enter the room, and then go up the stairs on the left. From there, take out the remaining cultists with the rifle and shoot the bell. When the Garradors run into the corner, throw a flash grenade. Then you can calmly hit their parasites on the back!

I've made dozens of guides for this room, all uploaded as YT Shorts! Most strategies also work in a New Game! Anyway, try it with the Stingray and the Standard Scope. Take out the first enemies right from the entrance and then take the stairs on the left. From there, shoot at the bell and wait for the Garradors to approach the corner. This way, you can calmly hit the parasites on the backs! Let me know if it works for you! ^^
