Facing the Ram in 99 Nights in the Forest can be a real challenge! Whether you’ve already had a terrifying encounter with this awakened beast or you’re smartly preparing for its arrival, our guide offers crucial tips for tackling the Ram from the recent Volcano biome update. Get ready to improve your survival chances significantly. 99 Nights in the Forest is a thrilling Roblox co-op survival horror experience where you and your team must endure wave after wave of enemies, collecting items to stay alive. The Ram is just one of the formidable foes you’ll need to master.
How to beat the Ram in 99 Nights in the Forest
Let’s get one thing straight: you cannot kill the Ram in 99 Nights in the Forest. Weapons such as the Katana, Laser Sword, and Rifle are completely ineffective. Unlike a Scorpion, Bear, or Cultist, your goal isn’t to vanquish the Ram, but to simply survive the night it appears.
To survive an encounter with the Ram, concentrate on two critical strategies: temporarily stunning it with your flashlight when it’s walking, and masterfully positioning yourselves to exploit its incredibly wide turning radius during its charge. As soon as you see the Ram initiating its dash attack, your entire team should retreat together and then quickly shift either left or right in unison. Since the Ram struggles to change direction once it begins its charge, this coordinated dodge will almost always cause it to miss your group entirely.
Successfully stunning the Ram with your flashlight during its walking phases will grant you precious extra moments between its perilous dash attacks, significantly easing the pressure of survival. However, be aware that your flashlight cannot interrupt the Ram’s dash once it has committed to the attack; it becomes immune until it resumes walking.
What is the Ram in 99 Nights in the Forest?
The Ram is a terrifying new ‘Antagonist’ introduced with the Volcano update. It’s the third “unkillable” enemy type to join the roster, following in the footsteps of the Deer and Owl monsters.
This formidable foe moves rapidly towards players and will periodically pause, signaling its intention to unleash a powerful, bull-like charge attack aimed at a randomly selected player.
Its dramatic entrance is marked by a cinematic cutscene where two cultists encounter the “awakened” Ram. Following this ominous introduction, the Ram can begin to spawn on subsequent nights in both the Forest and Volcano biomes.
Intriguing rumors circulate that the 99 Nights Ram might even appear alongside the Deer during a Cultist Attack. While this remains unconfirmed, it would certainly challenge the established in-game lore, which explicitly states that “even the Deer and Owl won’t go near it.”
If you’ve found yourself frustrated by a sudden Ram assault or a disorganized team, remember that consistent practice and teamwork are key to mastering 99 Nights in the Forest. Keep exploring the game’s mechanics and developing your strategies to overcome all challenges.
