Enemies

Learn about all enemies in Turok Origins, including Poachers, Raptors, and Cyborgs, and their weaknesses. Strategies for every foe.

Poacher

Description: A guy covered in animal skins.

Weapons: Normally knives. Also uses grenades and automatic weapons.

Strategy: Just use a blast or two from the Pistol to take care of these guys. They're like Goombas from Mario.

Normal FootSoldier

Description: A guy in a full army suit (camo, boots, etc.).

Weapons: Knives, Pistols, and Shotguns.

Strategy: They don't move much, they just FIRE! Strafe, and pump them full of whatever you've got.

Campaigner's FootSoldiers

Description: A scary guy wearing more body armor than he probably should be.

Weapons: Plasma Rifle which strangely shoots red.

Strategy: Pull out a powerful weapon and find some cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) (a place to hide). When the time is right, lean out, unleash a few blasts, and get back behind your hiding spot. Repeat if necessary.

Ancient Warriors

Description: Tribesmen painted like skeletons. They're pretty scary looking.

Weapons: Either a club or a dart gun.

Strategy: Now would be a good time to employ a large radius weapon. If not, just pick off the ones with dart guns and feed the club guys long distance attacks.

Raptor

Description: A dinosaur, about human size. Very aggressive.

Weapons: Its teeth, and scythe-like toe claws.

Strategy: Like real Raptors, these babies hunt in packs. Pick them off from afar with Tek Arrows, or just a good gun.

Bionically Enhanced Raptor

Description: A gray Raptor whose skeleton is reinforced with steel. Has a Hand Cannon fused to its arm.

Weapons: Hand Cannon.

Strategy: AVOID AT ALL COSTS! Or whip out the Tek Arrows, Super Shotgun, and any other good, strong weapon you're full of ammo.

Beetle

Description: A larger than normal beetle. It is purple.

Weapons: Its mouth.

Strategy: Look at him, and stab him with the Knife. Using a gun will take longer and waste ammo.

Dragonfly

Description: A bright green Dragonfly that is larger than I ever wanna meet.

Weapons: Mouth (and boy can it hurt you).

Strategy: Just flail wildly with the knife whenever one is on you. You could always run though, they won't give chase... too much.

Dimetrodon

Description: Resembles Triceratops but has a sail-type thingie on their backs.

Weapons: Its mouth.

Strategy: If you can't avoid it, pull out your Machine Gun and bust a cap in this guy's ass!

Bionically Enhanced Dimetrodon

Description: Like a normal Dimetrodon, but with two machine guns mounted on its shoulders!!

Weapons: Double Machine Guns and its razor-sharp teeth.

Strategy: Either A) Run like hell, or B) Strafe and use explosion weapons.

Triceratops Carrying FootSoldier

Description: A big, large, angry Triceratops carrying a heavily armed FootSoldier.

Weapons: Rocket Launcher, Horns, and the Machine Gun.

Strategy: Obviously, standing still is a no-no against a charging enemy. If you're stuck fighting this in a pack of enemies, get it to fire its Rocket Launcher. You're not in a pack of enemies anymore :) Just strafe around this beast and shoot, avoiding that machine gun.

Warrior Priest

Description: A guy with spikes sticking out of his head. He also carries a rather large, spiky mace.

Weapons: Fire, Water, and other types of spells which he throws at you.

Strategy: Find cover to avoid the spells, get a good weapon on, then rush him and take him out right after he fires a spell.

Cyborg

Description: A human-like robot that is very strong. They also have bright glowing eyes.

Weapons: Some sort of nightstick, and their bodies.

Strategy: While they rush you, take them out with a few shots from your current gun. I suggest using the Plasma Rifle on these guys.

Cyborg Master

Description: Looks like a normal cyborg who just had a rather large meal. Also, he has red eyes.

Weapons: Plasma Rifle on steroids.

Strategy: You'll want to avoid that Plasma Rifle as best you can. Always use your own Plasma Rifle, since that's the ammo they drop.

Killer Flower

Description: A flower that eats you.

Weapons: Imagine what you think a Killer Flower would use as its defense.

Strategy: Picking them off from afar is GREAT. Of course, since you don't always have that option, get trigger happy with the Machine Gun or just feed him a Grenade.

Mutant Crab

Description: A gigantic crab with big pinchers.

Weapons: Its pinchers!

Strategy: If you've got a powerful gun with sufficient ammo, blast away at this guy. Of course, since you probably don't, just use Tek Arrows on this guy, because odds are you won't be running out of THOSE any time soon.
