In the intense world of *R.E.P.O.*, you'll encounter 19 unique monsters, each presenting a distinct challenge on your journey. One particularly tricky adversary is the Eye Monster, known as the Peeper. Let's dive into the best strategies to conquer this elusive foe.
How to Beat the Eye Monster (Peeper) in R.E.P.O.
The Peeper is a ceiling-dwelling menace that can be difficult to spot due to its habit of spawning in random locations across the map. This giant eyeball remains closed until you unwittingly enter its territory.
Once it detects your presence, the Peeper opens its eye, locking your gaze and preventing you from looking away. This hypnotic stare inflicts two points of damage to your HP every second you remain connected. While the Peeper is considered a low-tier threat in terms of damage, its disorienting effect can leave you vulnerable to other dangers.
When trapped in the Peeper's gaze, your point of view zooms in on the eyeball, making it challenging to navigate your surroundings or escape from other enemies. To counter this, always be mindful of potential Peeper spawn points and maintain a clear escape route, such as a corner or a doorway. If possible, closing a door can break the Peeper's line of sight; this is easier with a teammate's assistance. The key is to stay calm and keep moving.
To defeat the Peeper, you'll need to use the 'Gun', available for purchase at the Service Station for around $47K. It may take several shots to bring this eyeball down, and while it's tough to aim when under the Peeper's spell, it's definitely achievable with composure. As with many challenges in *R.E.P.O.*, teamwork can significantly simplify the task.
