How to Beat All Monsters in E.R.P.O.

E.R.P.O. continually introduces new monsters, making it essential to bookmark this page for the latest updates and strategies. Below, you'll find detailed guides on each monster, along with general tactics to help you survive. Here are the common methods to engage and defeat these creatures:

  • Melee Combat: Equip weapons like the Machete or Hammer, available for purchase at the shop for 10k to 20k cash. These will appear in your next level. Use M1 to pick them up and swing at monsters. Adopt a hit-and-run strategy to minimize damage taken, especially from ranged attackers like the Huntsman. Always carry healing packs for melee engagements.
  • Grenades and Mines: Also purchasable from the shop, these are effective against various monsters. To use a Grenade, pick it up with M1, uncork with E, and throw or leave it to explode, dealing significant damage. Mines require placement and trigger upon a monster stepping on them.
  • Monster Brawl: Clever tactics can turn monsters against each other. For instance, you can bait a Huntsman into shooting another monster by positioning yourself behind it and making noise through walking or voice chat. Similarly, pulling Reapers during their attack animations can cause them to damage other monsters.

Robe Guide (Ghost)

The Robe, a shadowy ghost-like figure, will damage you upon contact. Avoid it by crouching and hiding or kiting it around. To defeat it, lure it into two Grenades or Mines. Melee combat is not advised due to Robe's high damage output. Be aware that it teleports and accelerates when you look at its mask.

Reaper Guide

The Reaper, resembling a raggedy doll with sword arms, is less dangerous than Robe in melee. You can kite it or engage directly with melee weapons since its damage is lower. A single grenade followed by a couple of hits will take it down. Both grenades and mines can stun it, making it easier to finish off.

Apex Predator Guide (Duck)

These seemingly harmless ducks become aggressive when provoked or damaged. They're non-hostile until you interact or harm them. Once enraged, they relentlessly pursue you, dealing minor damage. Outrunning them or using melee weapons is your best strategy. While grenades can kill them, it's excessive given their low health.

Huntsman

The Huntsman, a blind marksman with a one-shot gun, relies on sound to locate you. Avoid detection by crouching and moving silently. Melee combat is risky due to its auto-aim capability. Instead, use mines placed near its path or throw a grenade while crouched to stun it for 6 seconds, allowing for a safe melee attack.
