Snails in Grounded 2 seem like tough opponents when you start your journey in the game. As tier-3 creatures, they can be quite tough to beat as a newbie.

A guide to kill Snails in Grounded 2

As stated above, Snails are quite the experts at retreating into their shells whenever they're spooked or receive damage. That makes it nearly impossible to eliminate them if you don't know what you're doing.

Destroying their shell using primitive weapons is, of course, not an option. As such, we have to resort to baiting them out of their shells and dishing out damage over a prolonged period of time.

First and foremost, our best advice is to keep your buggy at a distance to avoid spooking this creature. Next, we urge you to get your hands on a bow and arrows. But it's nothing to worry about, even if you do not have one. You simply need to apply the principles of this guide to easily eliminate Snails in the game.

Steps to kill Snails in Grounded 2

1. Sneak up on a Snail, and use your preferred weapon to deal damage against it.
2. Upon doing so, the creature will automatically retract into its shell and refuse to come out of it until the coast is clear.
3. Proceed to walk away from the Snail. Keep the creature in sight, and continue walking until it feels that the area is safe enough to emerge once again.
4. As soon as the Snail pokes its head out, slowly sneak near it and deal damage again.

Repeat this process as many times as it takes to successfully eliminate this creature in the game. As is evident, having a bow and arrows helps, as you can simply stand far away from the Snail and consistently dish out damage without having to run to and fro from the target.
