There are many weird monsters in "R.E.P.O.", and the black robe is one of them. It roams very fast. When it finds players, it will follow them slowly but continuously, and usually will not attract the attention of players. If you see it as chasing you, it will be irritated and start chasing you at a faster rate.
What are the characteristics of the REPO Black Robe Monster
Name: Black Robe
Number of layers: 3
Kill Reward: Unknown
Behavior: It roams quite fast, and when it finds players, it follows them slowly but uninterruptedly, usually without attracting the attention of the players. If you see it as chasing you, it will be irritated and start chasing you at a faster rate. It seems to have a high object durability because if you try to avoid it, it will climb under the table, bed, cabinet, etc. It will deal 50 basic damage, but it will use a lot of power to knock you back, and may kill you with one blow.
Tip: This entity can be very confusing and challenging at the beginning. Its movement pattern is completely abnormal, it seems to be moving in random places. However, the best strategy to avoid it is simply to hide it and avoid placing your cross hair on it. My only other suggestion is to wait, because if this entity doesn't see any players, it seems to disappear after a while. I personally think it's a quick hide-and-seek entity and you just have to wait. I would like to remind you that it has a pretty high horsepower that can detonate mines at close range and get up right away.
