This is a very bad thing to do for two reasons. But when you move up to Suicidal or Hell on Earth, Scrakes will now rage when they've lost only 30% of their health making them much more dangerous.Ī big mistake many players make when a Scrake rages and starts attacking them is trying to run away from it. If you're playing on Beginner, Normal or Hard difficulties, Scrakes will rage when they've lost 50% of their health. The amount of damage needed to trigger a Scrakes's rage changes depending on the difficulty you're playing on. They move so fast when raged that no perk can outrun them so once a Scrake is raged, you have no other choice but to face it down and kill it. You can still run circles around the scrake though to get a lot of quick swings in but you will have to parry his attacks to stumble him.Once Scrakes have taken enough damage, they will go into a raged state where they move much faster and they will not stop raging until they are dead.

I was certain the 200% stumble made a difference but actually doesn't. I was mistaken in my original post a little bit. I tried this on a test map for 6 player HOE and found that a scrake has no trouble hitting you while you are circling it. Is there a video of this?īased on my testing and the wiki, you cannot perma stumble a scrake.Ĭircling a scrake was an old strategy that use to work until they fixed it. Managed to take down a couple Scrakes taking little to no damage. Used to practice this in a test map for fun. He will have trouble hitting you because of the 200% stumble and the speed of your light attacks. Now as quickly as possible, start circling around the Scrake while rapidly slicing at his head using light attacks. Let the Scrake swing at you and parry his attack to activate the Parry Skill that alters your vision and increases your damage. The reason for using the left skill Smash is only for the 200% stumble. Skills are RRRLR assuming you’re level 25. Only IF you really have no other options to take down the Scrake you should attempt engaging it with a Katanaįor this you will not be using the hard swing, only light swing.
