When you embark on your journey in Starfield, you may encounter a formidable enemy known as the Terrormorph. While the first encounter is a scripted event with additional support, subsequent encounters will be in the wild and can prove to be quite challenging. But fear not! We have some tips to help you defeat Terrormorphs easily and emerge victorious.
How to Defeat Terrormorphs Easily
The key to defeating Terrormorphs is to remember that they are highly resilient to damage. Therefore, it is crucial to equip your most powerful weapon when facing these adversaries. Additionally, their unpredictable movement patterns make it difficult to land shots accurately.
To increase your chances of success, consider the following tips:
- Avoid getting hit by the Terrormorph’s ranged acidic attack by sidestepping left or right when you see it coming.
- Use your Boostpack to maintain distance from the Terrormorph, as they are more effective at close range.
- Beware of their loud scream and hallucinations, which can disorientate you temporarily.
- Watch out for moments when the Terrormorphs burrow underground, as they will soon ambush you with a close-range attack.
- Target their heads, as it is their most vulnerable spot and will result in critical hits.
- Always ensure you have enough ammunition and medical supplies, as Terrormorphs can absorb a significant amount of damage.
- Equip armor that protects against Physical attacks, as their melee attacks deal substantial Physical damage.
- Employ “kiting” tactics by running backward and shooting at the Terrormorph simultaneously, but be cautious not to get trapped in a corner.
- Take advantage of their vulnerability to Radiation damage by equipping weapons that deal radiation effects.
- Find high ground or elevated positions to safely attack the Terrormorph from a distance using your Boostpack.
- When the Terrormorph is weakened, finish it off with a melee weapon to conserve ammunition.
Following these strategies should significantly increase your chances of defeating Terrormorphs in Starfield.
What Do Terrormorphs Drop in Starfield?
When you successfully defeat a Terrormorph, you can expect to acquire various types of loot. These may include:
- Membrane
- Alien Genetic Material
- Quark-Degenerate Tissues
- Fiber
- Hallucinogen
- Adhesive
- Nutrient
- Structural Material

- Amino Acids
- Toxin

It is important to note that loot drops are procedurally generated in Starfield, so the exact items may vary from player to player.
Are There Different Types of Terrormorph?
Yes, Starfield features several types of Terrormorphs. These variations can differ aesthetically based on their age and maturity.
For example, we encountered a Level 14 Terrormorph on Akila and a Level 10 Albino Terrormorph on Jemison. The Albino variant was comparatively easier to defeat due to its less aggressive behavior and lack of burrowing attacks. Additionally, Albino variants usually have lower levels, making them less formidable opponents.
We also had the misfortune of encountering a Level 30 Cloaked Terrormorph in Londinion. This variant proved challenging to spot and shoot due to its camouflage. However, their name tags and HP indicators can reveal their location.
In conclusion, defeating Terrormorphs in Starfield may be challenging, but with the right strategies and preparation, you can emerge victorious. Good luck!
