As usual with any new machine, start by scanning it for its weak points and elemental weaknesses. Doing so will also add it to the Machine Catalog. The Slithering is weak to Fire, Frost, and Plasma damage. It’s strong to Shock, Purgewater and Acid damage. To start dealing some damage, you want to target the Slitherfang’s Acid Sac, which is found in its lower area (yellow part when scanning for weak points). Once you’ve gotten rid of its Acid Sac, keep scanning it for other parts you can hit until it is no more. Don’t forget to scavenge the carcass for a considerable amount of parts and resources. Time to go back to the Data Center. ▶Subscribe My Channel : https://www.youtube.com/c/nghiaeric?s... ▶ RENUMBER LIKE, SUBSCRIBE AND SHARE MY VIDEO!!! ▶ Link FB : / dainghia25 ▶ Link Fanpage : / dainghia25gaming Contact : [email protected]
