Locust abilities in Lurking Giants

Confirmed Locust kit (July 11, 2026): Q — attack combo chain. G — Haunt ability.

Exact damage numbers and Haunt radius are pending rework verification — community showcases inform practical range.

Key reference: controls for Q/G bindings on PC and touch buttons on mobile.

Locust shares the WASD movement baseline with survivors — positioning at stair gaps and cave mouths matters more than ability spam.

Locust Q combo in Lurking Giants

Q attack combos punish survivors who sprint across open ground during quiet windows between Visibility Pulses.

Short chains beat long chases on Forest geyser fields — survivors die when combos connect mid-sprint.

On City, use Q after survivors break sight poorly at stair gaps — not during billboard blind corner rotations.

Practice combo timing in play as Giant early-round section before forcing City vertical sweeps.

If combos whiff, reposition at the next pulse exit lane instead of chasing across open rooftops — Lurking Giants rewards patience over raw pursuit.

Locust Haunt (G) in Lurking Giants

G Haunt pressures campers who refuse to rotate after 3:00 AM — especially tunnel and cave mouth stacks.

Survivors listen for Haunt wind-up audio — experienced players break sight before the ability lands.

Use Haunt to force rotations, not as opening damage on full-health survivors in open terrain early night.

Haunt exact radius is pending verification during the rework — community showcases inform practical range.

Pair Haunt with lane prediction from hiding spots — campers who ignore audio still die when exit routes are cut.

Locust hunt tactics — Lurking Giants

Predict post-pulse relocations — survivors break toward hiding spots after each 1:00–5:00 AM flash.

Use Haunt to pressure campers who refuse to rotate after 3:00 AM.

On City, climb vertical lanes survivors used earlier — stacked groups collapse on one tower sweep.

On Forest, cut through geyser fields during quiet windows when survivors sprint between caves.

Listen for footstep clusters during pulses — survivors who sprint during flashes expose position on open rooftops and geyser centers.

How survivors beat Locust in Lurking Giants

Listen for Haunt audio wind-up — headphones help on mobile.

Break line-of-sight with bushes, cave mouths, billboard blind spots — never sprint across open ground during pulses.

Rotate after Locust passes your lane; camping one spot fails on experienced Giant players.

Survival guide: how to survive.

Spread across two lanes in 16-player servers — Locust wipes stacked cave groups with one sweep.

Locust on Forest vs City

Forest: Locust excels on open terrain between geysers — force survivors out of caves with patience.

City: vertical sweeps reward Locust once you learn stair and roof lanes — punish dead-end towers.

Map guides: Forest · City.

Forest audio ambushes favor Locust players who cut tree line corridors. City rewards patient stair climbs over raw chase.

Vote-aware Giants study both maps — lobby pick is not always your preferred terrain.

Locust learning curve in Lurking Giants

Match 1–3: learn Q/G bindings and pulse clock from beginner guide.

Match 4–10: predict post-pulse exits on Forest before City vertical sweeps.

Match 10+: evaluate Guilt purchase (7,000 Coins) if you main Giant role — Guilt guide.

Spectate survivors when you die as Giant next round — relocation habits teach more than random patrols.

Record which pulse phase survivors die most often — 3:00 AM rotation failures are the usual teaching moment in Lurking Giants Locust lobbies.

Locust tier placement

Community ranks Locust B-tier on the Giant tier list — balanced starter threat.

Upgrade path to S-tier Guilt when you have 7,000 Coins and want heavier chase pressure.

Profile comparison: Guilt guide.

B-tier does not mean weak — Locust dominates inexperienced survivors who sprint during pulses on open terrain.

Upgrade when you can predict post-pulse exits on both Forest and City — then compare Guilt S-tier pressure.
