Gnezdo are a type of Complete Mutation birthed from C-Virus chrysalids. They appear as a swarm of insects that merge to form a humanoid female figure. A larger insect serves as the 'Queen' of the swarm and directs the creature as a hive mind, whilst the smaller insects act as a protective barrier. The queen hides within the swarm and only emerges if the swarm is broken apart by extreme physical trauma. Destroying the Queen is the only way to eliminate the Gnezdo.
Gameplay
Edit
Although the Gnezdo is slow in movement, its attack is damaging. It also can duplicate another human shaped swarm to confuse the player. Its only attack is:
| Attack | Damage | Description | Strategy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Swarm | Health Drain | The Gnezdo "shoots" a slow moving swarm that has a distinctive shape. It is slow but when the player is caught in the swarm, it inflicts heavy damage and a QTE commences requiring the player to shake the analog stick to break free. | Once the Gnezdo releases its swarm, it is best to fall back. If the player is cornered, the player can avoid the swarm by sliding past it, provided the player doesn't accidentally slide into the swarm. Using Breakout and Defense Lv.3 can be effective when the player is caught in the swarm. |
Strategy
Edit
Gnezdo are extremely deadly and should be killed as quickly and carefully as possible. Grenades and shotguns are your best bet at defeating the creature without taking damage. A grenade is recommended to first disperse the horde from a distance followed by moving in close to eliminate the queen as quickly as possible.
The queen does not stay still for very long, so shotguns are best suited due to their wide spread of shot. Ada's Crossbow also works best as it can kill the queen instantly in one shot, provided the player have a clear aim. If the queen is not killed after a few seconds, locate the horde and make sure they not moving in on you, as being caught by them will result in major damage. If it cannot be killed quickly, retreat and repeat the process until the enemy is defeated. Gnezdo can be very difficult to defeat and it advisable to avoid them if possible in order to conserve ammo.
