![]() After the melee strike, they will be vulnerable for a brief moment, use that moment to fire on them or respond with a melee or knife strike of your own.Īs mentioned above, they will occasionally lob grenades at your position, particularly if you've been in the same spot for an extended period of time. If you see them going in for a melee strike, simply step back while the animation plays out to avoid taking damage. However if they are in standing cover, rushing in for knife strikes is inadvisable as they are much quicker to react and can quickly turn the tables by either popping out of cover to move away and fire at you and/or performing a melee strike of their own when you get close. Assault Infantry will often announce when they are reloading. This tactic is especially useful while they are reloading, as it leaves them completely vulnerable. Furthermore, Assault Infantry are slow to get up from crouching cover, meaning that it is possible to rush in and use your knife to eliminate them before they have time to react. However, weapons such as the VC32 Sniper Rifle and the StA-14 Rifle can completely bypass the helmet, resulting in a head exploding, one-shot kill. One well-placed shot from most weapons will knock their helmet off allowing for an easy headshot the next time you take a shot. While in crouching cover, they often leave the very tops of their helmets exposed. Occasionally, and usually when there are a large number of them, they will break from cover and rush their target's position. If there is no cover available, they will either crouch down or stay standing and fire at their targets. They will also often attack from cover by popping up, firing a burst from their Assault Rifle and/or lobbing a grenade then retreating back into cover to reload or dodge incoming fire. In combat they make extensive use of cover, which can make them difficult targets in areas with ample amounts of cover points. They are basically trained, lightly armored and lightly equipped yet fiercely loyal to Scolar Visari and Helghan. Their primary battle strategy is to use large numbers and withering firepower to overwhelm their enemies. Assault Infantry are the most basic and plentiful Helghast soldier encountered in the Killzone games and serve as the backbone of the Helghast Army.
