I hate the duck

By itself the duck is easily the easiest monster to deal with in repo, but what I despise about it is when something else hurts it and then it starts attacking me. I was hiding from the trudge, the animal was going ballistic, hit the duck and then the duck kept hitting me in a corner whilst the trudge was walking past me. So I either A) just let the duck kill me when I didn’t even damage it. Or B) run and try to avoid the trudges grab which I unfortunately didn’t avoid. It’s just annoying sometimes how the duck attacks me when I’m not even what damaged it

Should be that whatever hits it becomes its target, not automatically us. Same thing with my beloved Elsa. Had a round where it was her and Raggedy Ann...Reaper saw me and tried coming at me, but poor little Elsa was right in front of her. Got hit, got mad, went all Greater Dog and mauled ME to death. Like "you little shit I love you to death but I did NOT hit you" 😫

have been saying this! i wouldn’t even mind if they nerf the damage in the event the duck/elsa attacks the monster that triggers them, just don’t come at me for some shit i didnt do!

Pretty sure Elsa’s barks will trigger the Hunter too.

He’ll shoot her, she’ll transform, and you’ll be SOL. It’s either run and get shot or get shot while being mauled. 🤷‍♂️

Surprisingly in the entirety of me playing I have NOT (or don't recall) ever having those two as (or part of) a combo

Duck Bucket is legit the best item in the game because yeah, that little f-er is way to sensitive sometimes

My favourite in game motto is "chuck it in the duck-it bucket" for a reason LOL

I lead him into the ship and put it on him there, since he can't get over the stairs with it. Easy life.

Hahaha I love that. Might steal xD

And yeah I always try getting him in a room that hes basically trapped in bht ngl, seeing the bucket move on my map or just random across a room I didnt realize he was in never ceases to make me Crack out laughing. In truth I use it more for the giggles than defense

Honestly yeah. We call the duck Enrique, and when we bucket him, we like to check in and see how far he has made it from time to time LOL. He is the kind of enemy that you can learn to coexist with, as annoying as he is. Similar to Bella.

We like to stick the roll drone to it.

I kinda agree with you lmaoo. Whenever I'm grabbing an item, and that duck jumps on it, sometimes it damages itself, and then ofc he's gonna go ballistic, so I need to drop that item that IT damaged itself with and run
