You got a source for that? My partner and I have been questioning the noise rumour for some time so it would be great if this was the answer. I don’t doubt you, but I wish to see for myself before I spread this info around.
@@SuperSwamper69 I've decompiled the code myself The player script implements "IVIsibleThreat" to communicate fear to the baboon hawk, and it has a number of things that can modify the threat level it reports, including one of you've used a noise maker prop within a short period of time (something like half a second, I forget the exact time)
yeah I'd probably prefer a dog or giant tbh. Dogs you just crouch and take it slow, giants you just hide behind literally anything even if its thin. These fuckers if there's 2 or more and you're not close to ship you're just done.
I had no idea they were this fleshed out in their behavior. So by default, you should think about being intimidating enough they don’t even want to mess with you. Look at them, hold a shovel, be with a friend. But if there’s a bunch of factors that are less in your control and making you seem less intimidating (later in the day, injured, carrying heavy stuff) then it’s better to try to get below 0 fear level by looking away and putting away your shovel so they don’t feel like you’re challenging them. If you’re too vulnerable, they will consider you easy prey, which at that point you will want to take out your shovel and might as well fight them with it. So it’s this really interesting sort of negotiation you make with them where you need to guess what they see you as, all based on their fear level: 5 or higher: “this human is really tough, I shouldn’t mess with him” 0 to 4: “this human is pretty threatening, but I feel confident enough to fight back to protect my family” -6 to -1: “this human is chill, I don’t need to waste my energy fighting him” -7 or below: “I’m feeling a pit peckish and this delicious looking human is so weak and disadvantaged that he might as well salt and pepper himself and lay down on my dinner plate. Snatching a meal this free is a no-brainer”
Adamance has had its scrap nerfed, and the way back to the ship is really annoying. Honestly I believed it should’ve been a higher tier moon to start off due to its danger and its loot, but if it’s going to be a lower tier moon it needs to be made safer.
W guide, fun fact: baboon hawks spawn in pairs. Also when they hear something all they do is look at it, and if they’re sleeping they wake up. They’re also scared of you, dogs, giants and radmechs. If they fight a giant, they win, since giants can’t attack enemies.
@@pikminologueraisin2139 adamance has the loot to be worth going to, but the map size is too large with a tiny multiplier you're lucky to leave with 500+ without bees
I think Zeekers sneakily changed the way enemies spawn on all maps. I’ve been getting tons of spawns at 1pm even on beginner maps and I had a giant spawn at 11 am on assurance and adamance
Been seeing so many people complaining about Bhawks lately so was hoping someone would make a guide on it. I always just run past them without looking at them and they never do anything. I've only died a single time to Baboon Hawks and that's because they were running by as i jumped out the ship.
Depends, because you either want to get below 0 or above 4 Easiest way to get above 4 is to hold a defensive weapon look at it and be above 30hp with a friend, to get below it is easier just don't look at it when your far from ship
It’s pretty intricate, and I had no idea they were this fleshed out in their behavior. Basically, they will attack if you’re vulnerable (easy prey) or if THEY are vulnerable (self defense), but not if they’re TOO vulnerable (survival instinct says to skidaddle) By default, think about being intimidating enough they don’t even want to mess with you. Look at them, hold a shovel, be with a friend. But if there’s a bunch of factors that are less in your control and making you seem less intimidating (later in the day, injured, carrying heavy stuff) then it’s better to try to get below 0 fear level by looking away and putting away your shovel so they don’t feel like you’re challenging them.

So it’s this really interesting sort of negotiation you make with them where you need to guess what they see you as, all based on their fear level. Remembering as much of the info at 3:28 as you can will help you determine which state the baboon hawk is in: 5 or higher: “this human is really tough, I shouldn’t mess with him” 0 to 4: “this human is pretty threatening, but I feel confident enough to fight back to protect my family” -6 to -1: “this human is chill, I don’t need to waste my energy fighting him” -7 or below: “I’m feeling a pit peckish and this delicious looking human is so weak and disadvantaged that he might as well salt and pepper himself and lay down on my dinner plate. Snatching a meal this free is a no-brainer”
For getting them to stop being mad, it doesn’t matter (distance does, farther means switch faster), for getting them to be mad, it matters. It will be a factor in only some cases, but in general it is better practice to keep out of the ranges 0-4 and below -6.
I had a loot bug chase me down yesterday, not aggressive but following me until it got mad from being too close, is that new or have i just not seen before?
so im a little confused, do you want their fear level to be high or not? what's their default fear level? also, it's good to know that while they're aggressive, they path toward your move direction. that'll probably make it a bit easier to deal with them in the future
@@chboo1897 idk if im stupid or not but i rewatched the part where he explains it and i never heard where he specifies the starting fear level. my confusion also stems from the fact that the baboon hawks get angry from points 0-4 and also less than -6 (?). idk why but that just doesn't function in my brain properly
@@texticks I meant when you said they path toward your direction is in the video, but in reality it isn't that important, just being far enough away from them is usually enough for them not to attack.

One question, what does the point system for fear start at? If its 0 then are you instantly prone to attack? That part confused me a bit.... like if i walk out with a shovel and my buddies will we instantly get swarmed because we are +4 points?

If you’re shoving them into a wall it won’t really work because at some point you will run into them or stand still for a second and then they will hit you.
The way the title is put makes me think that this is deeper than what's going on in the Bohemian Grove. Heck, the baboon hawks ARE in the Bohemian Grove, my new headcannon
5 things that i dont like on v50: 1- Jester being less avoidable making the run super sheet. 2 - Not run and crouch made the game sooooo much more slow, and somewhat take out Artifice, Rend and Dine dynamics too. 3 - Butler spawns too much on Dine, again making me not wanting to go there. 4 - Bee Butler being invencible. 5 - Adamance having too much monsters spawn. In early v50 betas verisons Adamance was balanced, good loot and good amount of monsters, but now, i dont think its worth it.

baboon hawks went from just a monster you could shrug off to the most annoying thing in the game
I think the myth of yelling at a baboon hawk to scare it away should be actually added to the game
Agree, and it would add an interesting dynamic with eyeless dogs
Yea lol
I believed in this myth for a bit, until they bit me anyway.
IT WAS A MYTH????? WHEN THEY APPEARED I WAS SCREAMING MY LIFE OFF 😭🙏

OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS.
Baboon Hawks are so cursed 😂!!
Seeing these large baboon hawk groups makes me wish we had grenades in game , unless the easter eggs can hit a large group.
The eggs can work, but they aren't reliable
Since baboon hawks have nests that are visible there should be a lootbug nest
also you can scream into the mic and they will run¨

they gotta make adamance a paid moon
On went in the ship to steal my loot and killed me. Idk if they were always able to do that.
Not sure why they had to nerf the power level of the Baboons when they buffed them....
Part of the buff
Before adamance was a thing:
Nobody cares about baboon hawks
After Adamance:
these guys are a problem 💀
tbh baboon hawks meta it's freakin annoying, imo they need to nerf it into 4-6 roaming group, NOT 10-15 cuz it's unbeatable😂
right they're so lame
you didn't mention they can steal from ship
Noise doesn't scare them....? So i was shouting at them just for lols i guess...
Thanks brad
so, the thing about being outnumbered being an factor of agression and stuff is a myth?
no since each player add +1 point to their scared factor
Been saying this for awhile that it doesn't matter
@@cynder2956Oh okay, so being alone doesn't inherently make you more vulnerable being in a group increases your ability to scare them?
Basically, it only considers the size of the player's group, not the amount of Hawks in accordance with them.
