Welcome to the ultimate guide for surviving the Perchorsk Exclusion Zone in “Into the Radius 2.” As an Explorer, I’ll take you through the various entities you’ll encounter, sharing tips and strategies to help you stay alive and thrive in this eerie, dangerous world. The United Nations Perchorsk Security Council (UNPSC) may not want you to know all the secrets, but I’m here to reveal them all.
The Spawn: Mysterious Creatures of the Radius
The Spawn are some of the strangest and most dangerous entities you’ll encounter. Initially, there was only one type, but they have since evolved into two distinct forms.
The Spiders
Spiders are the most common type of Spawn. They resemble ribbons sliding and tumbling around, making them difficult targets due to their speed and erratic movement. Here’s how to handle them:
- Tactics: Wait for them to attack, dodge, and then shoot twice with any weapon for a quick kill.
- Numbers: Spiders usually appear in packs of 2-3, so stay alert.
The Tumbleweeds
Tumbleweeds are larger, stronger, and faster than Spiders. Their natural camouflage makes them hard to spot, and they often sneak up on you while you’re engaged in combat.
- Tactics: Use two clean shots after stunning them for an efficient kill.
- Numbers: Tumbleweeds typically operate alone.
The Mimics: Deadly Impersonators
Mimics are among the most dangerous entities in the Radius. They adopt the appearances and behaviors of various armed civilians, including Police, Hunters, Snipers, and Military personnel.
The Police
The Police Mimic is the most common type, wearing police uniforms without armor and armed with a PM Makarov pistol.
- Tactics: Aim for the head for a quick kill, or use a few body shots to take them down.
The Hunters
Hunters wear civilian clothing with a Ushanka hat and carry a double-barrel IZH shotgun.
- Tactics: Wait until they fire both barrels before attacking, then aim for the head. If they are close, either gain distance or eliminate them quickly.
The Military
Military Mimics wear military uniforms and carry automatic weapons, often with helmets and basic vests. Some have camouflage, making them hard to spot from a distance.
- Tactics: Aim for the head to quickly neutralize them.
The Sniper
Sniper Mimics are one of the rarest and deadliest enemies. Their powerful rifles can halve your health with one shot and kill you with two.
- Tactics: Use cover and counter-snipe them. Never push other mimics while a Sniper is active.
The Machine-Gunner
The rarest and most formidable, Machine-Gunner Mimics wear full-body armor and an ALTYN helmet, wielding an RPD machine gun.
- Tactics: Engage them from cover and aim for the body. Their helmet is nearly impervious, so prioritize body shots. Avoid their line of fire at all costs.
The Radius: The Ultimate Threat
The Radius itself is a powerful and deadly force. It creates entities, generates space-bending anomalies, and can undo all your progress in an instant.
- Survival Tips:
- Monitor the Tide-Meter: Stay aware of the time and the Tide’s movements.
- Avoid Anomalies: Be cautious around anomalies to avoid instant death.
- Have Fun: Despite the dangers, enjoy the thrill of exploration and survival.
