How To Take Off Snare Flea From Your Own Head
The Snare Flea’s primary attack involves lunging at you and blocking a good portion of your field of view. It will also force you to drop your items.
In other words, you’ll go blind seconds before you die. But you can take on the Snare Flea alone even if you don’t have any friends nearby. Hey that rhymed! All you need to do is believe in yourself, you also need a shovel.
A Snare Flea makes a distinct sound before it goes for your head. You only have a few seconds to get it off before your life support goes offline. Remember the shovel you were supposed to bring?
The Snare Flea will force you to drop that too. But that doesn’t mean you can’t pick it back up. The shovel will drop near your feet, the prompt will appear on your screen if you’re able to pick it up.
Start swinging for the fences once the shovel is back in your hands. This will get the Snare Flea off your head and try to make an escape. Do the little guy a favor and put it out of its misery before it comes back for you.
And that’s how you get a Snare Flea off your own head in Lethal Company. Remember that a friend can always help you in situations like this. You can’t meet the quota if you and the rest of your party are dead!
