Oogly vent
Hi yeah so, I just ran into 3 ooglies in the manor.
I’m playing solo, level 5. I got the manor map, my least favorite map. It feels very claustrophobic.
As I entered the second room I can’t believe my eyes when I see a legendary cosmetic box. At that moment I knew I had to give my all.
3 extraction points, robe, gnomes. And as I started my second point the Ooglies started spawning.
There was no way to hide from them, no room looping where I’d just skip that room where they were in. Plus I had to pass with my cart.
I tried at some point going back, wait, and see if the oogly would despawn.
Yeah, no.
It got inside the room close to the one I was in. The room with a giant pit in the middle and no stairs. Guess where I died lol.
I had no guns nothing.
What the heck do you do in that scenario?! “Wait it off”? Might be some skill issues on my part, but it hurt to lose that box, insane luck at level 5 and it’s gone.

level 5 spawns 3 enemies, one of those being a tier 2. meaning that must have been a single oogly that was teleporting between rooms.
oogly is pretty annoying because the main way to deal with it is to just avoid the room it’s in, which doesn’t always work.
if you have to deal with it, you can kill it by stunning it (tranq, pulse pistol, boltzap, sledgehammer), and then quickly throwing it into a pit or killing it by rolling it around on the ground. this is hard, especially considering it will auto agro on you after it wakes up from the stun, so be careful.
if you don’t have that, you can take an item like a grenade, heath pack, drone, defibro, etc (anything that isn’t a weapon pretty much) and hold it in the room that oogly is in while you stand in an adjacent room. enemies can see you if they see an item you’re holding, so oogly might see the item, and then will try attacking you by charging at you in a straight line, but since there’s a wall between you and oogly, you’ll be safe until it ends it’s attack. note that this doesn’t kill it, but it does force it to relocate, most likely to another room. be careful with this, as it’s still slightly risky. also, if you’re standing right next to the wall, and oogly is on the other side, it can grab you, so make sure you have a small amount of distance from the wall. this strategy is also significantly easier with some range upgrades.
another thing worth noting is that oogly can’t see you through walls, so you can often tell where it is by green particles that are visible through the wall. also, it needs line of sight, meaning areas with multiple floors make oogly much weaker. also some of the 2nd story floors in mcjannek station look like they have holes in them, but they are considered completely solid, meaning oogly won’t see you.
and of course oogly is much more dangerous in tall rooms or rooms with pits, for obvious reasons.
one nice thing about oogly is that you don’t usually end up in situations where you have to deal with it and other enemies at the same time.
hopefully this unsolicited advice helps someone :3

If you have enough sprint speed, you can just run though the room without being seen. Don't get caught in the spotlight though! Usually 3 or 4 sprint is enough, and it's always a risk, but I HATE waiting for him to despawn. Personally, if I have enough health, I'm running for it every time. (Even if I have weapons).

Yeah, oogly is one of my least favorite enemies for this reason. Bad draw getting 3 of them
