Drops Crystal Mechanical Heart

Slow walking but powerful beings whose arm has been replaced by a drill. Though slow to gather up an attack, they deal damage against you in spades.

How to Kill Soldat Eins

Target Red Chest Piece

Soldat - Red Chest Piece.png

You can easily maneuver yourself around a Soldat due to its slowness. When it rears its drill back in preparation for an attack, try to target and shoot at the red piece it has on its chest to deal damage, and continue to do so until dead. Pistols do more accurate fire compared to shotguns, and is perfect for this task. However, the latter does provide more damage when fired point blank.
