Behavior[]

After some time has passed, the player can be tracked by local Mop up squads, the longer you stay at the location the stronger and larger the next squads sent will be. After they detect the player the Exterminators will always appear near your character, even if the player tries to hide in another part of the location.

In addition to the main mop up squad, there are other similar teams belonging to opposing factions:

Notes[]

  • You can use a Beacon to call a Mop up squad.
  • It is likely that the illusory entity that can sometimes be seen before members of the Mop up squad appear is the one responsible for tracking the player.
  • Mop up squads won't appear naturally inside ancient ruins, but they can still be summoned by Beacons.
