Want to fight against the Deer Standing on Two Legs Monster in 99 Nights in the Forest. This Wendigo-like creature, shaped like a humanoid, deals heavy damage to players whenever they are not within the light of the campfire.
Therefore, here is a quick guide to fighting Deer standing on two legs in 99 Nights in the Forest while you’re finding the four missing children.
How To Fight Deer Standing on Two Legs Monster in 99 Nights in the Forest
The Deer Monster appears each night (starting night 1) and cannot be killed by any weapon. So do not be tempted to waste ammunition by trying to kill it. Its attacks are very severe as they reduce 25% of your health in a single attack and possibly kill you in a second unless you apply a Medkit quickly. Thankfully, you get time to respond once it is near because of its loud footsteps.
The easiest way to survive the Deer standing on two legs attacks in 99 Nights in the Forest is to remain in the protective range of the campfire, which the Deer Monster can’t enter as long as the fire’s fueled with wood, coal, or gasoline.
Keep the fire stoked because rain can douse it, so build a wood rain storage to protect fuel. If you’re caught outside at night, grab a flashlight from watchtowers, houses, or the Pelt Trader (his stock is random, so check often). Shining a flashlight stuns the Deer briefly, letting you escape. You can also sprint to outrun it, as it’s not super fast, and head back to camp.
For extra security, enclose your base with a wall of saplings (place them around camp; take a day to a night to grow them) or shelves (constructed using 2 scraps each). These kill the Deer and cultists and keep your camp intact. You can still be productive at night by chopping trees or gathering resources near the campfire’s light but don’t stray far without a flashlight.
