As you scour abandoned locales for valuables, you're constantly on guard against monsters eager to halt your progress. Every encounter in *R.E.P.O.* demands strategic adaptation, as each beast boasts unique abilities, behaviors, and attacks.

Bowtie monster in REPO

Tier 4 – The deadliest monsters. Can one-shot players at lower levels.

Monster	Tier	Description
Apex Predator (Duck)	1	Just don’t touch it. It can be used as a defense against the Huntsman if timed right.
Gnomes	1	They do little damage and are easily killed.
Animal	1	Each one deals little damage, and they are easily picked up. They destroy any Gnomes they run over.
Hidden	1	He can carry you back to the truck or into a monster, but doesn’t deal any damage himself.
Shadow Child	1	Don’t look at it, and it won’t hurt you.
Spewer	1	Once attached to you, it can be used against other monsters. Leaves you unharmed.
Bowtie	2	Slow monster unless annoyed (but even then, not very fast). Its breath can damage, but it’s easy to avoid.
Peeper	2	Does little damage once its gaze is locked with yours, but if other monsters are around, it can be more than a nuisance.
Chef	2	They can easily roll into each other, killing themselves. Can’t get you if you hide up high.
Bangers	2	You have 10 seconds to get away once their dynamite ignites – only a problem if caught in the explosion.
Huntsman	3	Hunts purely on sound – so if you’re quiet (or the duck doesn’t give away your position), you’re safe. However, if shot, it could end your run.
Rugrat	3	Super strong and can kill by throwing objects at the player. A vase can be a one-shot for a low-level player.
Upscream	3	Relentless like Animal, but deals far more damage. If multiple spawn, they could all take you down together.
Mentalist	3	They have poor eyesight but great hearing, so it’s possible to run and hide. However, each hit deals 50 damage and more than one can spawn at a time.
Trudge	3	Extremely slow and loud, so you can hear it coming a mile away, but if caught, it’s game over, even with some health upgrades.
Reaper	4	Slow until they see you, and then they speed up. You can hear them coming, and it’s possible to get away, but without health upgrades, you’re dead in a few seconds.
Clown	4	Charges when it sees you and has two attacks, a kick and a laser. Both deal deadly damage.
Robe	4	Silent and often sees you before you see it. Can get under furniture to get you and will pursue quickly. Deadly if caught.
Headman	4	Relentless in its pursuit of you, its bite deals 50 damage each time and can quickly be fatal.
