Sorry, should've searched the thread, but thanks.

Continuing from my post a few pages back about how a lone bloodsucker killed an entire squad of soldiers in Agroprom Underground...

It happened again! During my visit to the dark valley two bloodsuckers and some rats (5 or 6) went through the bandit base systematically killing everyone. In the end there were bodies everywhere and I had only bagged eight bandits myself, the remaining 30 or so were killed by mutants. The mutants even got to Borov and killed him.

See all these corpses? That's a bloodsuckers work. Inside there's another pile of bandits, stacked high.



Does OL make bloodsuckers stronger or handicap the AI's ability to fight them in any way? Because if the bandits had fired at the bloodsuckers with anything approaching the vigour with which they attacked me, they wouldn't have made it nearly as far. Don't get me wrong, they did make my job easier, but it seemed a little one sided. What happens if a bloodsucker attacks someone I need to protect?

Bloodsuckers pretty much shrug off any damage done to their bodies. Unfortunately the AI aims for the chest. They're good at killing dwarves though, as their head is about chest height

Awell might aswell just shoot him in the face.

Wait for a blowout; you have time to clean the armoury out and get to safety before it starts to damage you (that's what I usually do). Just make sure you have a lot of spare carrying capacity (stash anything unwanted first) so you can take everything.

After the blowout is over no one seems to notice the open door and empty display racks...

Yeah, you should be okay. I entered Dark Valley before I'd even been to Wild Territory this time. The first time was okay, but the second time, after a blowout, the factory complex in the center (where I stash my stuff as I collect it) was infested with mutants. A dwarf, several snorks, a bloodsucker, lots of rats, but I got by even though I was only armed with an Akaban and a Saiga 12-C. Just use good judgement, don't get in too deep, don't get surrounded, and above all, know when it's time to run for your life.
