Forest Giants have an incredibly long detection range, meaning that they can spot you from a far distance. However, the detection range is long, not wide. This means that if you break your line of sight quickly after one notices you, then they’ll lose sight of you. Fortunately, they aren’t very destructive, and their huge size makes it difficult to reach smaller spaces. Considering that, the best way to break the line of sight and survive the Forest Giant in Lethal Company is to do things such as enter a building, go into the ship, or even duck behind nearby cover.

Unfortunately, they are incredibly fast, and, since they seem to mimic childlike behaviors, dangerous and careless. If you aren’t fast enough or don’t notice one around you for whatever reason, they won’t hesitate to pick you up and devour you whole. Even though they don’t really eat in a traditional sense, they definitely have an appetite for lost crew members who aren’t communicating with their team well enough. If you do happen to get caught, you can’t be teleported out of the giant’s hand, which means you’ll lose all of your items.

They make rumbling sounds with each step they take and are incredibly large and unique looking. In our experience, we found that they can blend in with the trees on some moons when they are looking to the side since, they are pretty thin-looking monsters.
