While most bugs in Grounded 2<\/a> are out for your blood, and are easy enough to beat (at least in theory: whack ’em hard enough), the humble snail is different. When you get up close to a snail, or if you’ve already gone in for a killing blow, they will hide in their shells and become completely immune. So, you’ll have to get creative when figuring out how to kill snails<\/strong> in Grounded 2.<\/p>\n

I hate having to kill a peaceful, docile creature, but garden snails have some valuable drops in Grounded 2: their slime can be used in lingonberry<\/a> bandages, their meat in mushcargot, and their eyestalks and shell fragments to create one of the best armour<\/a> sets in the game.<\/p>\n

However, it’s worth pointing out that when you kill a snail, its shell will fall off and become harvestable for snail fragments. The only issue is that you’ll need an Omni-Hammer 3 to smash snail shells, and the highest Omni-Tool upgrades<\/a> you can get right now are Tier 2.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the best way to kill a snail in Grounded 2 is to attack it, dealing damage but sending it into its shell, then taking a few steps back and waiting for it to pop back out<\/strong>, and repeating this process until you’ve killed it. It’s a lot of waiting around. However, I’ve found some tricks that can help make it easier:<\/p>\n
