Retreating from swarms of Crawlers are also difficult as they can fairly catch up and still attack. They tend to be quite annoying as they can slowly but surely tear apart a survivor's combat armor. However, as stated before, they are often hard to spot, and they can deal a reasonable amount of damage if they are allowed to get through. Due to their low health and their tendency to cluster into groups, weapons with high rates of fire are suitable when facing Crawlers.
The Crawler has very little health and can be taken out with relatively small amounts of fire, depending on the difficulty. It was an attempt by Horzine to cross human genetics with those of an arachnid.Īs their name implies, Crawlers move on the ground and can be easy to miss if not paying close attention. The Crawler is a common zed in Killing Floor games.
