As of writing, there are19 monstersinLethal Company.
That is unless you have a weapon and want to risk fending it off.
Bracken
The Bracken is a common jump scare in Lethal Company.
For this reason, take a stab at avoid prolonged stares and move away from him.
Otherwise, you may hear a change in the ambient music.
If this happens your best bet is to haul yourself out of there and don’t bother looking back.
If you are feeling brave, an empty bee hive will usually sell for around 100 credits.
This is a risky tactic but can be worth it for the quota.
Coil-Head
The Coil-Head is Lethal Company’s version of a Weeping Angel (think Dr.Who).
They can only move for the kill if undetected.
It is possible to stun a Coil-Head with a Stun Grenade.
Earth Leviathan
The Earth Leviathan is like a Thresher Maw fromMass Effect.
Essentially it’s a large worm that burrows underneath the ground.
Luckily, you’ll usually receive a measure of warning before one attacks.
It will cause a rumbling sound underneath the earth.
verify you drop anything and run as these monsters are impervious to damage and will insta-kill.
Eyeless Dog
Eyeless Dogs are, unfortunately, a common monster you could encounter outside.
These beasts are blind but have superior hearing.
This means your best chance at escape is usually by crouch walking away and keeping as quiet as possible.
Forest Keeper
Forest Keepers prowl around outside and have excellent eyesight.
As such your best bet is to hide from them.
Usually moving behind a tree is enough to buy yourself some time.
Otherwise, you might use a Laser Pointer to distract them or a Stun Grenade to slow them down.
Ghost Girl
Arguably the most terrifying of all monsters in Lethal Company is the Ghost Girl.
This meddlesome child will ‘haunt’ a player, meaning they’ll hear her telltale giggles and heavy breathing.
The only resistance to the Ghost Girl is to run away and abort the mission.
After taking one crew member she will work her way through everyone until there are no survivors.
Hygrodere
The Hygrodere is a giant ball of slime that slowly expands and captures players within it.
If you have the misfortune to get stuck in the slime it is an unavoidable death.
Jester
The horror of this next Lethal Company monster is time it takes to attack.
When you first encounter the Jester it will appear as a jack-in-a-box on legs.
Once it starts to wind itself up, you have a very limited time to act.
For this reason, it’s best to run away and abort the mission if you see a Jester.
Nutcracker
The Nutcracker will patrol, scouting levels for movement.
When it pauses its route and lifts its head to reveal its secret eye, confirm you stop moving.
The beast carries a shotgun which can be stolen whether it’s alive or dead.
It will try follow-up attacks so be on your guard.
Roaming Locusts
Roaming Locusts look similar to bees but pose very little threat.
They will usually fly away after you walk by them.
You’ll need a teammate to hit it with a Shovel to get it to release you.
If playing solo, verify you keep an eye on ceilings whilst collecting scrap indoors.
If trapped, you could also use the Teleporter to travel back to the ship.
This will usually cause the Flea to release you.
Spore Lizard
SporeLizards are relatively harmless if left alone.
They can release a cloud of gas, which will disorientate your vision.
Apart from this, these little guys mostly just want to be left alone.
The Masked
The Masked is a creature that has possessed one of your teammates.
Be sure you’re communicating with your teammates, using Walkie-Talkies where possible.
If you see a player wearing a white mask approaching you with outstretched arms, simply run.
Be warned though, these monsters can run too.
These long-legged creatures will charge towards you in search of a meal.
That rounds off our list of all monsters in Lethal Company and how to beat or altogether avoid them.
