*Stalkers tend to attempt to rugby tackle their foes on higher difficulties, although this does not increase the damage received compared to a normal attack. | *Stalkers tend to attempt to rugby tackle their foes on higher difficulties, although this does not increase the damage received compared to a normal attack. | ||
*When playing on higher difficulties, they have a habit of mutating when they're stuck with a plasma grenade. The grenade appears to be absorbed but does not detonate, making it useless. If you hit them with an [[Type-3 Antipersonnel/Antimatériel Incendiary Grenade|Incendiary Grenade]] or a [[m7057/Defoliant Projector|flamethrower]], they will instantly jump away and scream, then they will die after a few seconds of burning. | *When playing on higher difficulties, they have a habit of mutating when they're stuck with a plasma grenade.

*The name "Stalker" is represented quite well on both [[Cortana (level)|Cortana]] and [[Floodgate]], as they blend in quite well with the surrounding [[The Flood|Flood]]-ridden walls. It is easier to kill them at close range with the sword before they transform into the much more powerful [[Flood tank form|Tank Form]]. | *The name "Stalker" is represented quite well on both [[Cortana (level)|Cortana]] and [[Floodgate]], as they blend in quite well with the surrounding [[The Flood|Flood]]-ridden walls.

* | *Slam forms can be killed while mutating. As a result, the corpse left behind usually takes the appearance of the Stalker and the Ranged or Tank forms merged. Occasionally, they will have a very extended appearance with strange physical properties in-game.{{fact}} | ||
*The Stalker Forms rarely attack the player. When it does, it doesn't cause as much damage as it does not possess the skill set (strength, weapon compatibility, shooting needles) that the other [[The Flood|Flood]] forms have. Stalker Forms are more likely to mutate into one of the other [[Flood pure form|Pure Forms]] than to attack in open combat against a player. | *The Stalker Forms rarely attack the player.
