Nah, i can confirm. They go down much faster to rockets, fire, and big laser than to having their glowing eyes shot off. I started off assuming the eyeballs thing as well, going to the trouble of jetpacking behind them to get the ones from the other side but nothing really did the trick untill I started bringing grenade launchers, anti tank turrets, and quasars.
Say to the others who did not follow through You're still our brothers, and we will fight for youWell, helped get us past the Fleshmob threshold, so for now we get free Recoilless Rifles as a reward in missions. Now players just need to really start killing Leviathans. Otherwise we have Factory Striders, Shriekers, and Impalers to deal with. Shriekers we're doing well on, but Impalers, Leviathans, and Factory Striders are not going well so far, probably because they're rarer enemies.

The problem I've noticed with this MO is that a lot of the stuff we need to kill doesn't spawn super frequently (and especially in the case of Leviathans, it's situational to be able to kill them). The fleshmob counter went down super quick because they're everywhere, but when's the last time you saw more than a couple Impalers in a bug mission?
I spent a few hours playing and my team downed less than a dozen Leviathans. Bastards kept sniping my AT emplacements.
You are not alone.There's a new "minor order" to kill a bunch of Spore Bursters on Fori Prime (which was made temporarily available again) with Stalwarts. There's also a lot of Impalers on Fori Prime. Maybe too many Impalers, good grief.
Also, it's only just occurred to me that there are still Evacuate Priority Citizens missions on Fori Prime. Does this mean that there are still civilians who have been holding out for months on a Gloom-consumed world?

Wenn sie die Ente hierein lassen, lasse ich das Wasser hieraus!Joel threw us a bone and reduced the Leviathan count that we need to 750,000, citing that inventive hunting methods are impressing the public more than anticipated. This MO is now still possible, we just need people to grind factory strider kills on Claorell for the rest of today.
Wenn sie die Ente hierein lassen, lasse ich das Wasser hieraus!Honestly downing Leviathans usually just isn't worth it, I described them more as an obstacle than a enemy before.
They require heavy AP on a faction that otherwise is built around no armor too.
You are not alone.
It's unfortunate but it makes sense; bunkers are supposed to be a high-value reward for cooperating with other players, so it's natural that they don't want players to be able to bypass that on their own.
Or just do it from a standing position rather than running. It warps you forward regardless. I was SC hunting yesterday and got into multiple bunkers that way.

That feels actively impossible considering how many times Fleshmobs have dropped dead after I broke the last section of the torso.
You are not alone.
