Grounded Creatures Guide — What Bites in the Yard

Data status: The facts on this page were checked against the source named above. Game values can still shift with a patch, so re-check anything that looks off.

Read aggression first

Every entry in the creature database shows aggression. Harmless and Neutral bugs let you pass. Angry bugs hunt you — that is the difference between a stroll and a sprint.

Weaknesses win fights

Most bugs have an elemental weakness and a weak point (often the eyes). Hit the weakness and the weak point; a weapon of the wrong damage type wastes every swing.
