How to deal with Glukhar in Escape From Tarkov
Each Scav Boss in EFT is distinctive in the way they behave and try to attack you and Glukhar is one of the hardest scav bosses to deal with. While he doesn’t seek out player Scavs, however if you have low scav karma, he will attack you if you come too close. Fighting him and his scavs in an open area is quite a challenge so try to fight him in close quarters or small spaces. Glukhar's preferred ASh-12 12.7x55 assault rifle will one-shot most targets.
The best way to deal with Glukhar is to get close quickly and make him your first target. While attacking him from a longer range would seem like the best option, it's hard to attack him from further off. The moment you attack him, you’ll get pushed by his goons. Glukhar can tank a lot of shots to the torso that would otherwise kill others so landing as many headshots is the ideal strategy. However, if you get rushed in the meantime by his goons you’ll go down before you can take him out.
When you get up close, try to take down Glukhar first. You’ll be able to tell him apart by his black T-shirt with gray pants and, at most, a light plate carrier. Try to take him out before turning your attention to his guards. The Guards are also capable of using grenades and flashbangs, so groups of players will need to beware of their spacing when engaging the Guards.
