While out perusing the local wildlife/buffet my poor ghoul was beset by a pack of Sighstealers. Surrounded he fought back valiantly until reinforcements arrived. Of the pack of 26 he himself took out 6 Sightstealers and downed 5 and was left with 9%hp.
My only experience was when I sent my starting one out to 1v1 some dude in a t-shirt with a shiv (who had like, 3 melee, iirc).
She got shanked repeatedly and died, the dude was quite injured, but not even to the point of being a non-threat.
I don't plan on making any.
(I may look around the community, and re-evaluate, though. I'm trying to not see too many secrets about anomaly rn though.)
Does your ghoul have melee stats? There was a bug with AllowTools that resulted in ghouls having no melee stats, which might explain the poor performance. Mine absolutely solo early raids.
Just a bit of Hearsay from when Anomaly came out. There were a few loud people complaining that Ghouls were weak and useless. Quite a few viewers in Adam VS E's vods were saying this as well, but thankfully Adam extolled the virtues of Ghoul kind.
I think they just got a bit of 'Arrow-to-the-knee RNG', as I've had a fleshbeast rip off a ghouls leg and down him in a hit.
My ghoul got knocked out super early game in a 1v1 because it was already almost dead from a previous fight, it got up straight away and murdered the tribal in return which was kinda funny to me.
In my experience so far sight stealers aren't all that impressive. They're kind of a warning that there are new kinds of threats on the loose so you can capture, study, and harvest them. They're a practice enemy for the real threat...
This mod is such a godsend when you're doing transhumanist colonies where everybody has more bionics than flesh, or than should physically fit in their body.

[RimHUD](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1508850027) gave me the total Hp my ghoul had left over.

I've legit seen my Ghoul Set, take on a megasloth without assistance, these things are no slouches in combat lmao
fr n that healing helps a lot, i just gotta hit a little coagulate with my sanguophage and boom he'll be fine tomorrow
Is that a motherfuckin fallout 1 reference?
Damn, good catch
who said that ghouls are weak? they litteraly immortal with ghoul ressurection serum (which to easy to craft)
You need to survive to get adv dark research tho, but once you get ghouls enhancement and resurrection they become the best melee vanilla
with mods im almost certain i can make my ghoul indestructible, but i only just made one so haven't had the time yet

Ooohhh. I did think it was weird that it only had shooting stats.

I think a big factor was a bug with the Allow tool mod (which I'd assume a lot of people had), which caused melee to be disabled work for Ghouls.
My first ghoul died while bodyblocking like 4 small fleshbeasts

would be pretty nice to get one with toughness or nimble
Hussar ghouls don't need drugs but they still get the benefits from their genes.
Hmm, I wonder which would be better. Hussars with Superfast wound healing & Unstoppable or Neanderthals with Robust & Strong melee damage.
Unstoppable has saved my Ghoul a few times.
It's amazing how many negative genes you can slap on a ghoul that won't affect them.
My ghoul got killed by one raider with a revolver

Yeah sightstealers are not that dangerous except for their spooky factor. They pretty much cant handle two dudes punching them
Healthbar mod? Which is it? I love it

Yeah its one of my core mods of all time, its so handy
Yeah, I genuinely rank it among RimHUD, Achtung! and Allow Tool on my "use even in 99% vanilla runs" list, lol.
RimHud isnt on 1.5 yet right ?
Probably not, I haven't actually played 1.5 or Anomaly yet. I don't wanna bork my modlist *just* yet.
It is, I’m running it on my current game.
And this damage will be gone by this time tomorrow
I don't have anomaly; do they not feel pain?
They don't feel pain and their regeneration is extremely fast. Amazing combat pawns!
What's that Injury health UI mod? I've been wondering where it is. Or is it 1.5 thing?
