The Spore Burst Hunter is a special mutation of the Hunter, caused by the 
Terminids' prolonged exposure to The Gloom, causing them to gain a white carapace along with red, flesh-like undertones. They appear to have some kind of fungi growing from their head and the tips of their legs.
In addition to their agile nature, they have gained the ability to release clouds of gas upon death, which is detrimental to 
Helldivers around it.
Anatomy
Behavior
- Spore Hunters still retain the same behaviors and attacks as standard Hunters.
Tactics
- Spore Hunters are weak to the same tactics as regular Hunters.
- Due to the gas cloud exuded upon their death, Helldivers are required to maintain a slightly longer distance when dispatching them, as the gas cloud they release will slow down and damage them in close-range. The damage is negligible, but multiple instances of them can be lethal, and the debilitating slow is the most lethal effect when confronted by multiple Terminids.
- As Hunters are the most adept at closing the distance compared to other spore strains, extra priority should be allocated to killing Spore Hunters at a distance first.
- The Motivational Shocks booster can significantly help with Spore Hunters, as it removes the speed penalty caused by being exposed to their gas upon death up-close, along with being slowed by their tongue.
