Alright, so you wanna find those little sneaky Praying Mantis Nymphs in Grounded 2? Yeah, good luck with that! They’re like the ultimate hide-and-seek champions. Seriously, they’re like, just chilling in plain sight. Or maybe not? Who knows. Anyway, when you’re not busy getting chased by these tiny terrors, you gotta hunt them down. So get ready to dig through weeds and climb plants. You’ll thank me later.
Okay, let’s try to pin down where these things hang out. So far, we’ve figured out there are like, six places they like to lurk around in the early access version:
1. Under that pine tree. You know the one, right?
2. Between the snackbar and BURG.L’s Head spot.
3. Near the big statue, like right where you walk up to it.
4. In the flower beds on both sides of said statue.
5. South side, near that trash can at the entrance’s end.
But here’s the kicker: Sometimes they just poof, like magic. Reddit folks swear there’s one under the pine, but I dunno. One second it’s there—then poof, not there. It’s like they’re messing with us, I swear. The constant ones? By that dang trash can and BURG.L’s Head — those are real reliable lil’ buggers.
Now, onto the showdown. Trust me, finding them is half the battle. These nymphs like to kick it up high. Imagine them just hanging out way up in the grass, blending in like the new green thing. Camouflage on point! If you’re craning your neck and still nothing, hit up that photo mode. Detach the camera, have a wander. These guys love pink flowers – you know, the ones not sprouting petals everywhere. They’re either perched on top or just chilling in the neighborhood.
That one near BURG.L? He’s a ground crawler, usually harassing ladybugs. Honestly, ladybugs kinda help out by being loud and distracting. Over near the statue and trash can, though? You’re on your own, buddy. If you’ve got a buggy sidekick, great! They’ll keep the mantis busy long enough for you to, you know, figure something out.
Now, let’s talk gear. Mantis Nymphs, they hate slashing and fresh damage — think arrows to the eyes, classic. Load up those mint arrows. It’s almost magical, I tell you. Hit the ice cream cart ranger station, nab like 15 of those bad boys. Keep your eyes peeled, ‘cause the mantis does these silly swipes and flings dirt. They do other stuff, but honestly, no idea what they’re thinking.
Wanna craft mantis gadgets? You’ll need a load of nymphs. They drop claws, chunks, heads — it’s like a surprise gift that’s not really a surprise. If you’re just getting your feet wet with Grounded 2, probably gotta brush up on some survival skills. We’ve got guides for all your needs – shells, stems, seeds, you name it. And hey, if you find yourself by the picnic table, climb up, and maybe crack a code or two, see what that gets you. Happy hunting!
