"Remember that this is Rain World and these things can still fucking murder you" Yep. Best summarization of the game honestly. You can technically master the game and kill any living being (big bois like Leviathans and Guardians require special weapons but still can be culled. Worm grass is the only exception I can think of) but get slightly unlucky or be slightly underprepared and you are completely fucked. You could get to a point where you could reliably kill a Red Centipede but get cucked by a humble blue lizard on your way out of a pipe.

All that just for a dumb scav to nick my pearl right before the end. Needless to say, I got pretty enthusiastic about playing artificer afterwards.

@@sodatab2746 scavs are typically more dangerous than any other enemy though. I'd rather fight a king vulture or a red centipede than a group of scavs. Overall, I recommend picking your battles and ensuring exit strategies whenever applicable. Oh and for scavs you better have REALLY good reflexes because they absolutely do.
On weapons to use you forgot the jellyfish, best used in big bois like vultures and red lizards. They might be hard to stockpile but you only need one for each region, just dont lose them.
Inevitably I'll make a couple addenda videos covering everything I missed, but rest assured when I do a video on red lizards I will mention the uses of jellyfish.
I call the disconnected bridge extending from the wall at the top of chimney canopy the vulture execution zone since its so easy to bait them down to the end and then camp them from the shortcut and when they try to escape they have to go down the whole length of the tunnel so they're basically trapped.
I start panicking the second a vulture shows up on screen, never won a single fight with them, so these tips are very helpful! I haven't really seen any other guides on them, so thank you!
When I got the game: these vultures are op 1 month later: they are good opponent 2 months later: quite a good danger 3 months later: I can defeat them 4 months later: free mask and food and scav reputation delivery yippee!
If you think about it, vultures can barely attack, and if you hit them more than three times theyll just stop moving. Once you learn how to defeat a vulture, you wont be food for the vultures, the vultures will be food for you.
While I can kill a vulture consistently and a king vulture most of the time I’ll be damned if I said a kv never swooped down shot me immediately bit the nearest squid then just left me lying there
With my admittedly somewhat limited experience, I think I found another way to cripple them. I ended up finding out the hard way that they can spawn in Pipeyard, though I wasn't alone. Had an entourage of scavs on my side, who only managed to damage the wings. But when it tried to fly away with a meal in tow, it's left wing wasn't working quite right, and it just flew sideways, into a wall, and wouldn't stop. It's probably not as effective as other methods, but it did prove useful to me, as it left it wide open for me to go in for the kill.
I just had the weirdest encounter against a King Vulture. I was starting in Farm Arrays attempting to get a vulture mask. I activated the vulture grub and a king vulture came. I evaded the first two shots and then I proceeded to spear him. He resisted like 5 shots but then I missed two and I had been left without spears. The vulture was very injuried... And he was in retreat (walking) . Then a normal vulture came and ate me... And suddenly the King Vulture aimed his spears at the normal vulture and shot him down, releasing me. Is it as he was saying " That bastard is mine to kill"
it has several different subspecies such as: boom boom genocide. Wet handed speedy legs. Absolute weightlifter of a chonker. No mouth spear printer. And le long tongue pacifist chameleon god
I'm surprised there wasn't any mention of breaking their wings. Hitting their wings doesn't do much hp damage, but if their wings are dealt enough damage they won't be able to fly anymore
I remember in survivor i was scared of them but after a while they are just food and mask deliveries... Also such a great and informative video. The King vulture tips really help alot
unlocked king vultures in sandbox recently, messed around with them and they seem to stop firing their harpoons after being injured (not sure by how much) masked or not
A hit to the wings can actually cripple their ability to fly like the tentacles on a rot cyst, with enough hits their wings can be injured enough to knock out and leave them grounded
A basic summary of the miros vultures since this vid was posted right before the downpour: *Miros vultures are extremely, if not ridiculously powerful.* Anatomy: Miros vultures have the same lemon shaped body, neck, and double the wings as a vulture, only notable difference is that they have no mask, just a miros bird head. Abilities: From the same crusty musty ugly head they have comes scissor-like jaws, that of which will kill you, them, and everyone else. If you even remotely get close to these jaws, unlike regular vultures’ charge attacks, they will instakill you. No exception, just snip snip. If you somehow managed to damage a miros vulture enough its second attack will trigger-its literal laser beam. This beam starts of as a yellow line likely coming from the miros vulture’s eyes. After a moment, wherever the beam ends is where a fatal explosion occurs. Luckily, due to being dramatically damaged they usually aim downwards and keep the beam from you. Killing: In general, just don’t. Unless you TRULY wanna flex, I recommend explosives, since miros vultures have an active beak that will kill you if you get close. Really the only way to kill such a beast are like 3 explosive spears lodged into the body. If you’re mentally insane you could use spears but… yeah no we’re skipping that one. Grenades aren’t much of a reliable weapon either, however if you can catch one off guard you can drop it into the abyss. Using another creature as bait isn’t very easy, as miros vultures for some reason prefer the scug over EVERYTHING. If you do manage to feed one something though you’ll have to move quick to lodge in those explosives. If possible, use a singularity bomb, it’s the only reliable weapon and might as well be the on,y garauntee death for a miros vulture.
This is all pretty accurate from the limited testing I've done, yes. The only thing that differs is that miros vultures activate their ranged explosive attack *on taking any damage at all,* up to and including a thrown rock. If you're careful, you can use this to interrupt the instant death snipping (while it charges up the attack), get some hits in, and then get into cover to dodge the explosive. Thankfully, they also have the suicidal overconfidence of miros birds and don't tend to run away that often. Enough repetitions and patience and it'll eventually die. Eventually. They are tanky as hell and any fuck up will lead to death by snip or death by explosion. "Just Don't" is good advice. There'll be a video on these things too, eventually. Probably. Given sufficient time.
@@ForgettableYT most of the stuff I wrote here is going from the wiki and a few “hey I’m bored let’s open the arena mode” tests lol Also That’s weird? Last time I remember a single spear didn’t get those living tanks to wail out their laser. Probably has to do with the anatomy tho, as those spears mostly hit the wings. You might’ve just gotten lucky with that rock and hit its head or body. Cool to test out though! Edit: goldfish memory strikes once again lol. Turns out they ARE big babies and cry after one spear. Though It could’ve been that I used explosive spears instead?
From my experience, the best way to fight them is stunning with either an electric spear/jellyfish or using a flash bang (although I believe their mouth still swings around dangerously and might nab you if you get too close), but electricity stuns them completely for a decent amount of time and you can get a few hits in before trying to restun them to keep them locked. They WILL NOT use their laser guided explosive when stunned nor their beak and are completely harmless for the duration, BUT DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THEM!!
I like games like rain world and intrusion where whenever a creature changes its position perspective it uses more images which means the characters feel more alive, these games are rare though, atleast for me (don't know how to describe it exactly)
Rain world actually uses procedural animation, basically there are some pre-set animations that the creatures procedurally animate with all their pieces of body, the process is a little different but that's what makes it unique.
you can now upspear as well as downspear now too so if a vulture starts escaping you can try to deal more damage by backflipping and in the middle hitting throw+up to upspear

Chimney canopy is always "time to get ganked by king vultures," yes. What I usually do is make sure I'm at chimney at a high enough karma so the echo triggers, and I can just run past it straight to the wall. This limits vulture spawns in the rooms leading up to the wall, and you can go back through the region gate next cycle to grab it.
@@ForgettableYT fuckin awesome strategy, i remember on my first playthrough i got stuck with a grapple worm for THIRTY CYCLES in chimney, i got good at using Beaufords tho (grapple worms)
7:22 this right here This is why vultures are some of my favorite creatures They’re so stupid I can’t help but move my head around the same way they do 😭
my strategy: checklist: 1. sit in a pipe facing either left or right 2. have an absurd amount of spears at your disposal execution: operation: spearstorm once they’re low enough on health they can’t fly away so just go in and finish them off
Oh i was actually interested in learning about these Funny thing is i always start my Hunter runs with a king vulture mask since hunter always spawns near a vulture grub room. I've always been alloyed when their masks deflect my spear half of the time and the other 50% of the time leads to a De-mask And i liked the clip where you de masked a dead vulture, unfortunately you need to be in a somewhat open spaced to do the backflip, either way nice to know that info I'm currently doing a gourmand playthrough and i want a vulture mask in garbage wastes to make my survivability 999% easier. I'll definitely keep this in mind
King vultures can be easy to kill, but everyone likes to brag about killing a bunch of them in chimney because that’s where they’re easiest to kill. Anywhere that’s not a giant flat location with no other enemies is much more dangerous.
I remember when I watched this as a new player and now I just find it hilarious that the best advice I got from this is “don’t be a coward and just stab em”.
Step one: be spearmaster Step two: find a vulture grub and a pipe. Step three: call 3 vultures and go through pipe Step four: make spear, go back out through pipe, pretend you're in London (shank) Step five: go back in through the pipe and repeat step 4 and 5 Free food.
king vultures don't seem to use their harpoons when demasked but if they get demasked, and then come back in another cycle/arena round, they will use their harpoons
It makes sense a demasked vulture wouldn’t run but instead kill sense other vultures will kill vultures without masks So you basically took away its identity and other vultures will kill it because “WhO Are You?!???”
My first king vulture kill was when i pipe camped him and threw spears at his wings for long enough they were disabled. He fell into a pit and i baited out his harpoons so he was not able to get them then i climbet at the top of the room and jumped on him twice and he died
As spearmaster ive killed four kind vulture and a miros vulture just because I could in this one campaign, in every other scenario as Spearmaster or not they’ve killed me so, you know
One time I was playing arti in its special region I will not say which, and I demasked a king vulture that or a scav I don’t remember it to clearly but it definitely can still shoot it’s harpoons they just do it very rarely
Initial experimentation on Spearmaster shows that they can tank an explosive spear to the face. Also, unsurprisingly, they retain the instant kill bite of miros birds. And they have a ranged explosive attack. Engage with caution.
i played rain world for 3hours this week and i found the first vulture ever i knew they existed before but i really spioled the king vulture part on myself never knew there was such a thing glad pepole still make rain world content i got into yesterday after watching the video about "most complex eco system of any game" video thats viral what does wearing the mask do again?
2:00 how to reach karma gate to canopy? Every time I kill 1 blue lizard 4 more of different colors will come and just sit still until I die. Because I cant farm carma due to food lack and due to low karma I cant reach the gate normally. I mean I never struggled this much with any level in any game
Does anyone know how many cycles a vulture will hunt you after you get it's mask? Cuz I was playing in my survivor save with 2 slugpups and I stabbed a vulture once, to my luck it hit it's head and now it's been murdering me or my pups for a while. I just can't progress because of it and I can't fight it bc of my pups 😭
your vids have been helping out a lot but do you have any strategies for combatting white lizards and red since reds are a nightmare and whites i can't beat very consistently
It looks like you're using the same spear on enemies over and over. How are you doing that? My understanding is that once a spear is thrown at an enemy or wall, you can never use it again. Is that not true? Can you pull them back out? Or is there a way to use the spear without throwing it?
Eventually. I know it takes them at least a cycle because I could only get maybe three vultures in a cycle before I had to wait for them to regenerate.
oh i see, thank you very much i was doing an expedion with the hunting expeditions (the ones where you kill a specific enemy a few times and got 15 vultures lmao

Jellyfish is super OP when dealing with vultures, it basically stuns them same as explosives but it comes with the added benefit of being reusable.

Step five: go back in through the pipe and repeat step 4 and 5

Smash that like button like it's a king vulture that killed you on your way to Five pebbles
Very nice guide! I like how you explained this in a very simple and understandable way, with actually proper English.
Actual*
king vultures don't seem to use their harpoons when demasked but if they get demasked, and then come back in another cycle/arena round, they will use their harpoons
It makes sense a demasked vulture wouldn’t run but instead kill sense other vultures will kill vultures without masks
So you basically took away its identity and other vultures will kill it because “WhO Are You?!???”

Once, jolly coop, me (spearmaster) and my friend (artificer) were farming vulture masks
Also, king vultures are weak, change my mind
your title cracks me up
Tbh I feel like they would be better if they wouldn't run immediately after two spears, and maybe make them less crippled so they can fight back.
It's realistic though, most animals would usually run away if they realize their opponent is stronger than them.
Dead-ass thought they were invincible because arena

i played rain world for 3hours this week and i found the first vulture ever i knew they existed before but i really spioled the king vulture part on myself never knew there was such a thing glad pepole still make rain world content i got into yesterday after watching the video about "most complex eco system of any game" video thats viral what does wearing the mask do again?
the mask makes other creatures scared of you
7:45 vulture rain dance💀💀💀
2:00 how to reach karma gate to canopy? Every time I kill 1 blue lizard 4 more of different colors will come and just sit still until I die. Because I cant farm carma due to food lack and due to low karma I cant reach the gate normally.
I mean I never struggled this much with any level in any game
Im your 300th sub! Can I pls use the vulture attraction dance? Please?
it was patented in 1986 so it expired years ago, feel free to use it
what about miros vultures?
Does this mostly apply to miros vultures as well?
A guide on killing miros birds would be appreciated as well
Miros vulture isn’t even a real vulture if you don’t think about it
Sense artificer is immune to grenades can grenades still be set off at a close distance?
Is it possible to parry king vulture harpoons like how you parry spears
Does anyone know how many cycles a vulture will hunt you after you get it's mask? Cuz I was playing in my survivor save with 2 slugpups and I stabbed a vulture once, to my luck it hit it's head and now it's been murdering me or my pups for a while. I just can't progress because of it and I can't fight it bc of my pups 😭
The first time I killed a vulture was with my scav bros 2 of them died though but I got a mask
your vids have been helping out a lot but do you have any strategies for combatting white lizards and red since reds are a nightmare and whites i can't beat very consistently
I know I keep mentioning videos that'll eventually come out in ten bajillion years, but a generalized bulk lizard video is on the itinerary.
its kinda sad that vultures are such a damn pushover while they are presented as this big foe
Do a killment of miros birds and vultures cause they are less of pushovers
How about Miros Vultures ?
Guide on miros vultures when?
It looks like you're using the same spear on enemies over and over. How are you doing that?
My understanding is that once a spear is thrown at an enemy or wall, you can never use it again.
Is that not true? Can you pull them back out?
Or is there a way to use the spear without throwing it?
spears embedded in creatures can be removed and used to stab them once more -- in this way they are infinitely reusable
Wheres the miros vulture?
Now do one for miros vultures
Do one for red lizards lol
hey uh, do vultures respawn?
Eventually. I know it takes them at least a cycle because I could only get maybe three vultures in a cycle before I had to wait for them to regenerate.
oh i see, thank you very much i was doing an expedion with the hunting expeditions (the ones where you kill a specific enemy a few times and got 15 vultures lmao
The text moves way too fast, but otherwise good video, thanks
This. This is the singular fatal flaw of this style of video. You gotta be a fuckin speed reader if you want to comprehend them.
