Overview
Daniel undertakes a Terminid extermination mission to demonstrate the Recoilless Rifle against heavily armored targets like Armored Chargers and Bile Titans while grinding medals for a stamina booster.
The Recoilless Rifle pairs with an ammunition backpack holding around five extra rounds, supports staged reload animations that survive dodge interruptions, and targets weak spots on Chargers such as the head, legs, or underbelly.
Combat tactics include lying prone to mitigate roughly 90% of explosive damage for close-quarters blasts, sidestepping Chargers to expose their vulnerabilities, using Bile Titan acid against Chargers, and destroying distant magic mushrooms with weapons like the Recoilless Rifle, Missile Launcher, or Autocannon.
