Praying Mantis Nymphs are one of the toughest bugs to find inGrounded 2, so the job gets easier when you know where to look.
The Praying Mantis has two versions available in the current version of the game. We have our Nymphs, which are a tier-III enemy you can find in Brookhollow Park. Then there’s the Mantis boss, who is a huge hurdle (still gives me the creeps). Let’s take a look at where exactly you can spot a Praying Mantis Nymph on your adventures.

Grounded 2 Praying Mantis Nymph locations
As a tier-III creature, Praying Mantis Nymphs aren’t very common. However, they have multiple spawn zones where you can try your luck.
Ultimately, having a Praying Mantis Nymph spawn depends entirely on your luck. They’re elusive creatures, and being at the correct spots doesn’t automatically guarantee you a spawn. However, the task gets simpler if you manage to defeat and loot at least one Nymph. you’re able to then use a Resource Finder to track all loot from Praying Mantis Nymphs, which reveals their positions.

How do you defeat Praying Mantis Nymph in Grounded 2?
Praying Mantis Nymphs offer some of the highest amounts of resistance you can expect from a bug inGrounded 2. They don’t go down easily, have a dangerous kit in terms of potential damage, and can eliminate you quite easily. The first task is to take note of its potential weakness and resistance.
You have to look out for the Nymph’s jump attacks that can eat away a chunk of your health. After taking damage, it will vanish and reappear, so look out for that trick. My preferred weapon against Nymphs has always been melee tools that inflict Slashing. Using it to target the eye can be extremely useful, to say the least.

You could also try ranged weapons, but they take way too long for me to like. If you manage to eliminate a Nymph, you’ll get its claw, chunk, and head. These items can be used to create the Mantis Blade, which is a powerful double-handed weapon. The item requires you to use Praying Mantis Claws, Praying Mantis Chunks, and Lingonberry Leather.
