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

New monsters are continuously being added to *E.R.P.O.*, so it's wise to bookmark this page for regular updates. Below, you'll find detailed guides on specific monsters. While each monster has its own strategy, you can also use various weapons to combat them:

Melee Combat: You can purchase melee weapons like the Machete or Hammer from the shop for 10k to 20k cash. These will appear in your next level, and you can pick them up with M1 to swing at monsters. Be cautious with ranged attackers like the Huntsman. Employ a hit-and-run tactic to minimize damage, and always bring healing packs for melee encounters.

Grenades and Mines: Available in the shop, these can be powerful tools. To use a Grenade, pick it up with M1, uncork it with E, and then throw it or leave it to explode, dealing massive damage to weaker monsters and significantly harming tougher ones. Mines require placement on the ground, waiting for a monster to trigger them.

Monster Brawl: You can manipulate monster behavior to your advantage. For instance, bait a **Huntsman** to shoot another monster by positioning yourself behind it and making noise through walking or voice chat. Similarly, you can pull **Reapers** into combat with each other during their attack animations.

Robe Guide (Ghost)

The Robe, a shadowy ghost-like entity, is best avoided to prevent it from grabbing and damaging you. Crouching and hiding are effective, or you can kite it around. To defeat it, lure it into two Grenades or Mines. Melee combat is not recommended due to the high damage Robe inflicts. Be aware, Robe teleports and moves faster when you look at its mask.

Reaper Guide

The Reaper, a doll-like creature with spinning sword arms, can be kited or avoided similarly to Robe but does not teleport. It's more susceptible to melee attacks since it deals less damage. A single grenade, followed by one or two melee hits, can take it down. Grenades and mines also stun it, making it easier to finish off.

Apex Predator Guide (Duck)

These seemingly harmless ducks are non-hostile until provoked. They become aggressive if grabbed or harmed, chasing you relentlessly. The best strategy is to outrun them, though they can be easily dispatched with melee weapons or a single grenade, given their low health.

Huntsman

The Huntsman, a blind marksman, relies on sound to locate you. Avoid detection by crouching and hiding, especially under tables. Melee combat is risky due to his auto-aim one-shot capability. Instead, strategically place a mine or throw a grenade while crouched to stun him for 6 seconds, allowing you to safely attack with melee weapons.
